The Code isn’t itself secondary legislation. It’s guidance that explains the law. The time for MPs to scrutinise the Eq Act’s single-sex exceptions was when Parliament passed this law back in 2010. If MPs want to change the law they need to change the law, not block guidance.
Curieux, non ? Ce silence radio des professionnels de l’indignation au sujet des 10 membres du "convoi terrestre de la flottille" (👀) toujours détenus par des milices libyennes…

I think the most important aspect of Farage's address to the nation is that he was gifted £5 million by a crypto billionaire and nobody's quite sure who bought his house in Clacton.
A message to all sane Republicans:
He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals.
You said nothing.
He bulldozed the East Wing.
You said nothing.
He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing.
He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing.
He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing.
He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing.
He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing.
He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing.
His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing.
He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing.
His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing.
He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing.
He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing.
It’s time to start talking.
As a former chair of Fife Pride it is clear to me that the current so-called Pride month has become a festival of homophobia, lesbophobia and misogyny.
It has nothing to do with LGB rights and everything to do with satisfying the demands of a small subset of men and their useful idiot supporters.
No public money should be directed at this scam.
Everyone losing their shit about Nicola Sturgeon not knowing about her husbands finances, but unconcerned about an immigrant waitress spending £850k cash on a house and her partner not having a clue where the money came from
Facts: Russia has the 5th highest HIV rate in the world, 52% of Russian hospitals lack hot water, 20% of Russian homes lack indoor plumbing, the life expectancy is 13 years below France, the domestic violence, alcoholism, and death rates are off the charts. Enjoy.
Why is @ChrisMasonBBC holding what appears to be a large bundle of blank pages and wearing a faux frowny face. What kind of political journalism is this. Is he auditioning for amateur rep.
Yet another workplace union failing to grasp either the law, or the fact that their brave female employees actually have rights.
Given the scandals about misogyny and sexual harassment of women rife across the service, this statement ranks highly on the ‘well, they would say that, wouldn’t they’ scale.
Life advice: The guy in a "fuck you" hat would almost certainly pull you out of a burning car if needed. Anybody wearing a shirt mentioning "love" or "kindness," meanwhile, might feign concern while watching you burn to death.
Alternatively to the breathtakingly stupid idea of throwing away our landslide majority in a snap election (the polls show a hung parliament if Andy was leader), Labour MPs could do what we were elected to do and implement our manifesto with Keir as PM, and worry about the leadership and general election when we have to, in 2028 or 2029.
This is a quietly devastating profile. We all know people who are (to put it diplomatically) fantasists. Polanski routinely says things about himself that are entirely made-up. Zack Polanski’s journey from Liberal Democrat convert to Green leader via @FT

At least 14 males ran in the Female category in UK parkrun today.
One got 1st Female. He’s now amassed 101 1st Female finishes - 100 more than the 1st Male he got once in nearly 5 years running in the Male category.
Another was Labour councillor Kaz Self who famously tried…
Nothing screams 'free speech enthusiast' quite like threatening to shut down an entire organisation because a couple of comedians made a joke about you. 🤷
If we’ve learned one thing over the last week, it’s that nobody in the SNP knows how to read a set of accounts. They barely even know what accounts are. Which explains why Scot Gov is heading for a fiscal trainwreck, & why the financial case for independence simply doesn’t exist.
