Really annoys me how suddenly the right wing have noticed the decline in British town centres. Shame you didn’t notice when Tories slashed govt money towards councils. Shame you didn’t notice Tories never delivered the levelling up they promised. Like where tf have you been?

If the press gave the Green Party and Lib Dems as much coverage as Reform UK, voting intentions would likely shift significantly.

@Gazray Oh I presumed she was a republican woman from day 1! 😬

What’s your favorite “oh my god they’re actually doing this.” Moment from a movie or tv show.

Sunak didn’t just cancel HS2…

He authorised the sale of the land that would form part of the cancelled route

So no other leader could reverse his decision.

This major decision

One he took unilaterally

Without consulting parliament

…without anyone having voted for him.

Going to another country, not learning the language, not embracing the local culture and sticking to your own traditions, is actually the most British thing you can do.

@Serena_Partrick @bannedyoangel You are hands down the saddest person on Twitter.

I don’t think this is weird, it’s kinda cute. Too many LGBTQ+ people don’t have blood family they can rely on and only have the idea of a community.

Normalise treating each other better, being the community so many people need and not just sexual objects. 😭😭

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

I will never get over being shot for @BritishVogue’s Pride Month issue by the legendary Tim Walker!

I’m proud to be an openly queer, young Asian woman in Parliament, and I’m proud to represent our city and our movement in all our diversity.

[Elle Hunt @elle_hunt]

So refreshing to see a column on trans rights, written by a cis woman, that finally represents my position and the position of the overwhelming majority of women I know!

@STILLTish @SheaChristie3 Likely story…

GB News

It has the word ‘News’ in the name

Its slogan is “Great Britain’s News Channel”

It appears in the news section of my TV planner

…and yet @Ofcom is saying it’s fine for Tory politicians to host their own shows on there because it’s not a news channel.

Stitch-up.

@EuanJohnston18 @rebelraising How is this illegal? They platform white, lesbian women all the time.

[Scotia @justascoash]

@Gazray It’s giving “off with their head” energy

[CSbungo @CSbungo]

Obvs. she's blocked me but, hello 👋 I've been out since the '80s, have read the writings, lived the living + wotnot over these 40yrs + that's what makes me joyful seeing the growth of visible diversity + inclusion. Well, until these clowns came along wi their fash-adjacent mince

[Scotia @justascoash]

@EuanJohnston18 @rebelraising Why would a business run for profit operate at a loss just to host an MP at a comedy club? Make this make sense!

[Scotia @justascoash]

Why is everyone in the comments section acting like being gender critical is a protected status? The stand did not cancel her show because she was a woman, or a lesbian or white. I’m sure if Linehan had a “feminist” show cancelled it would because he was a straight white man?

[BBC Debate Night @bbcdebatenight]

“This isn't a question of free speech. Nobody is suggesting that Joanna Cherry can't speak her mind and doesn't have a platform to do so, she absolutely does"

@lornaslater supports the staff at The Stand's decision to cancel Cherry's event

I see the IEA has reclaimed its regular spot on the BBC.

Let’s appreciate what this actually means.

Opaquely funded anti-state lobbying groups are being given a major platform by our national broadcaster - months after they helped to crash the economy.
