Rather pointedly, in the event that we all end up speaking Russian with the US throwing weight behind Ukraine & taking aim at NATO on Greenland; I shall be having a beautiful baby daughter by the name of “Uvankas”.

Bong Bong Bong: Representative Democracy as foundational concept in Britain, but make it 2028??
Thanks, Clement.

A party of 5 dethrones one of the largest majorities in recent British political history, ending the 2 party state and eschewing in the greatest constitutional change sine 1945. Still cannot govern. Discuss. 🙄

Sorry, the machine says XX.
I’m no longer making myself sick trying to accept non-sense as reality. Get the blinkers off.

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

DNA results are in: XX.
I’m going to record that as female. They might have thought they were something else, but I’ve just got empirical, scientific fact 🤷‍♂️

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

Can I define my terms now, or are we sticking with fiction?

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

It is so healthy to say “I can choose not to live with this fantasy. It is not necessary.”

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

XX = female.
XY = male.
A table *is* a table.
I so wish so many people were allowed to feel that.

It is so healthy to say “I can choose not to live with this fantasy. It is not necessary.”

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

I hadn’t even realised I’d been feeling a low-level of unease and I suspect this applies to many many people. It is sense & non-sense and it is psychologically disturbing. You do not have to accept non-sense.

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

F, it. Just so everyone is aware; there are carbon-bearing molecules on Mars. Not life, but not life-less. (Molecule, as in (active) chemical/atomic bonding).

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

Can we take it that female = xx and the male of the species carries the y chromosome? Coz I’m not sure how I’m supposed to read any biology textbook without it becoming gibberish 🤯.
Is the genetic code a subjective theory now???

-the appeal to populist sentiment & the inverse relationship between the increasing scale of the parliamentary majority & the % of the vote share secured.

[E. J. Coates @e_j_coates]

My first opinion column is now live.
I’d genuinely like to thank some Britain’s top political correspondents including @BethRigby @SamCoatesSky & @bbclaurak.

Of particular interest:
-bestowing of a peerage upon David Cameron in 2023 (standing as Foreign Secretary) as synonymous with the retroactive refusal of Royal Assent.
-referenda & constitutional instability (prorogation of parl. & subsequent refusal of royal assent).
