@docgovtnz is there an issue with the great walks booking today? Having trouble loading! 😭😭

If the government starving children seems irrational, remember that they hate you

I'm saddened that almost two years on this cruel Government is shelving urgent reforms to the Gender Recognition Act.

I will continue fighting for LGBTQI+ equality 🌈

Below is my letter I sent to the then Minister for Women and Equalities in 2018 regarding Reforming the GRA.👇🏾

100% there's no excuse not to have an interpreter.

So sorry, wish I could force them to provide one. I'll keep raising it as often as I can.

"The Met Police is systematically racist and it needs to change."

Labour MP Dawn Butler says "there's something wrong with the system" - after she was stopped by police in London today.

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

A shocking timeline of failure from a government that has been too slow to act at almost every stage of this pandemic.

Now the government must be honest about its mistakes. For the British public’s sake, we cannot let it repeat them.

Intersectionality is not additive. It’s fundamentally reconstitutive. Pass it on.

If you live in Glasgow, you’re Glaswegian. If you seek refuge in Glasgow, you’re Glaswegian. If you’re Black, or Asian, or Syrian, or Afro-Caribbean, or any other ethnic minority, and you live in Glasgow? You’re Glaswegian. And you are welcome here.

"Defendants have a right to give their side of the story. They don't have a right to be believed."

@Louise_m_perry on our call to end rough sex claims in the killing and injury of women.

When hundreds started dying in Italy, our media portrayed it as apocalyptic. It is extremely disturbing how hundreds of deaths every single day in this country have become normalised.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

The Sunday Times investigation into the government's catastrophic handling of the coronavirus is one of the most important things you've read.

It's behind a paywall, so here's a thread with the key points. Make sure everyone sees it.

@NichollEmily @bethgoodwin47 @SirensNetball Awwww man! I’m definitely jelly of missing out on these legendary quizzes

Thinking about all the people & children in abusive households, now stuck in the house with their abusers.
Much respect to the cash-strapped domestic abuse services working to support people at this time. Please look out for your neighbours #COVID19 #SelfIsolation #Quarantine

[Existential Comics (find me on bluesky) @existentialcoms]

So it turns out that the people who stock grocery stores, drive trucks, farm, and work in hospitals are actually the ones preventing civilization from collapsing.

Meanwhile the bankers, CEOs, and entrepreneurs can all stop what they are doing and no one even notices or cares.

[Faiza Shaheen @faizashaheen]

3 wks ago we were told those working in supermarkets, social care & cleaners were “low skilled”- now these are the people crucial to managing #COVID19 outbreak. Everyone plays their part in society - these workers deserve decent wages & sick pay not just now but always.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Watching a black woman being shouted down on TV for calling Boris Johnson racist - he is racist, he has a back catalogue of racism - is really grim, and underlines how calling out racism is deemed more offensive than racism itself.

Bravo @DawnButlerBrent

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

So when Dominic Cummings put out an advert for 'weirdos' to work in Number 10, it turns out he meant supporters of Eugenics. Deeply sinister. Andrew Sabisky should be nowhere near government.

If you wanna be my lover you gotta... include trans women in your feminism. 🎵🎶
