[Miss Chief 🤨 @Midge1415]

I’m not a woman who minds being called love in a well meant context at all but when it’s done to demean & belittle as happens here, you can fuck right off. This is how men who come up against women of superior intellect behave. If Starmer did this, we’d never hear the end of it.

🚨 NEW: The Green Party now has more members than the Tories

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

I called this out on #BBCQT last night and I'm calling it out again now.

He is gaslighting a nation.

[James Chapman @jameschappers]

The same people who lied about Brexit are now promising that leaving the ECHR would solve all our ills. In fact, it would be another blow to our diminished international reputation. The only state ever to have withdrawn is Greece under military rule. Don’t fall for it again.

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

The Reform UK party's former leader in Wales - Nathan Gill - has pleaded guilty to eight counts of bribery relating to pro-Russia statements he made in the European Parliament, as well as newspaper opinion pieces.

[Tarnished @Coop8640]

Shut the fuck up talking about a party that has 4 MPs.

[Angel calling @Angelcalling5]

One year in, Reform have lost 2 of the original 5 MPs that were elected.

Yet they remain plastered all over every media outlet as though they're some holy Oracle

Please put them in the bin where they belong

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Baron Hain, "Palestine Action members spraying paint on military aircraft is moderate by comparison to what the suffragettes did"

"Treating young people as terrorists because they feel frustrated about the failure to stop mass killings and bombings of civilians in Gaza"

"I've never supported their activity, but there's a great difference between what they did and terrorism"

"And if you start labelling people willy nilly terrorists right across the board, you're going down a very dangerous route"

"Al Qaeda's attack on New Yorks twin towers killing 2,753 people - real terrorism"

"ISIS - real terrorism"

"This Labour government is treating Palestine Action as equivalent to ISIS or Al Qaeda, which is intellectually bankrupt, politically unprincipled, and morally wrong"

"Frankly I'm deeply ashamed"

[Andrew Musgrove @ADMusgrove]

Just a reminder that the Conservative Party were in power for 14 years and did not hold a national inquiry.

[Jane Symons @JaneSymons1]

If it weren't for a supermarket security guard persuading a woman to make a complaint against Pelicot for up-skirting, his horrific crimes would not have come to light.

While we celebrate the courage of Gisele Pelicot, let's also rethink our approach to 'minor' sex crimes.

[🌷Jen🌷 @LeftHonJens]

The fact that it was an upskirting law that resulted in the charging of Dominique Pelicot, demonstrates the importance of the idea that there are no ‘low level sexual crimes’.

Sexual harassment etc is a trickle-down symptom of rape culture, not a building block.

[BBC Newsnight @BBCNewsnight]

"That room was more than half empty... how are we supposed to get justice when they don't even care?"

Vice-Chair of Grenfell United Karim Mussilhy says he was surprised by how many MPs left the Commons before Prime Minister's statement on Grenfell Inquiry report.

Femicide doesn’t start and end with the eventual act.

It starts from the jokes, the rhetorics, the repulse, the unreasonable takes that stem from deep patriarchal conditioning and other forms of dangers that are easily negligible and casually neglected.

RIP Rebecca Cheptegei.
Our hearts go out to her children and her family.
Male violence against women and girls is a worldwide scourge.

How can you talk about people coming to take your jobs but you have the freedom to riot at 1pm on a weekday. There’s no way you have a job

[Chimene Suleyman @chimenesuleyman]

Who is this “if he hadnt murdered women with a crossbow he would have been a swell guy” commentary for? Yeah Kyle Clifford seemed normal, they always do, even when they’re abusing you. There’s no monster gene - it’s always the average man who harms women, & that’s WHY it’s scary.

[Ruth Coppinger @RuthCoppingerSP]

1 in 3 guilty rape verdicts end with a partial or full suspended sentence.
Let that sink in.
Please don’t let me hear an establishment politician acting shocked about the injustice meted out to #NatashaOBrien

Violence and sexual violence against women in Ireland is an epidemic.

[long since dead @1899INE]

Muting this I don’t care enough. If you think the atmosphere in Qatar was amazing then more power to you. I’m glad the locals got to experience a WC but wouldve preferred it wasn’t acquired via corruption and played in stadiums built by slaves who threw themselves off buildings
