Dress however you please.
Call yourself whatever you like.
Sleep with any consenting adult who’ll have you.
Live your best life in peace and security.
But force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real?

A man (Samantha Tempest, here abbreviated to ST) is arguing in court that he belongs in a group for menopausal women. It is pointed out to him that menopause is the cessation of ovulation and that, being a man who never started, let alone ceased, ovulating he does not belong in such a group. He disagrees. He says he's had 'menopausal symptoms' like hot flushes and brain fog. This is like me claiming to have been in the army because I once shot an air rifle and quite like khaki.
New data showing benefits spending in Scotland is out of control.
Almost £6 BILLION paid to 1.9 million people (pop. 5.5 million).
The Scottish Conservatives have consistently warned the SNP's rampant welfare culture is unfair and unaffordable
From The Times👇
Counsel should be free to phrase her questions in a manner that best represents her client and conveys her case.
Exercising case management powers to blunt Counsel’s duty to persuasively put her case is extraordinary and would be unheard of in the criminal division.
Three-quarters of all migrants given the right to stay in the UK via human rights laws are unemployed.
Each one costs you £18,700.
Which means the 12,000 small boat migrants this year cost you £222 million — enough for 30 brand new primary schools.

Prosecutors are to be told they must consider their "unconscious bias" before charging ethnic minority suspects under a new 'two-tier' requirement in the Crown Prosecution Service code. https://t.co/zZFe2dcJ80
Putting an 89-year-old to bed at 3pm because there aren’t enough carers is ridiculous.
Authorities acknowledge the staffing issues in home care, but it keeps ending in apologies rather than real fixes like proper staffing levels or reliable care schedules.https://t.co/M9H9EhehIa

My question on the government's statement for the dangerously drafted Conversion Practices draft bill. The Labour minister presents it as fighting against serious abuse, but actually it threatens to criminalise parents for refusing to affirm gender identity (ie trying to 'convert' so-called trans kids). So if Mum insists you aren't born in the wrong body, or Dad refuses to pay for his kid's puberty blockers, the police or social services could be at their door.

I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
NC: Such an extreme reaction to opinions they disagree with means ppl are not really suited to adult life?
ED: Not disagreement! Harassed, victimised. Trans ppl most resilient I have ever met.
One of the sites of the Russian strike in Kyiv is an ordinary nine-story residential building. One Russian missile destroyed 64 apartments. The rubble is still being cleared at the site. All relevant agencies are working. Unfortunately, there are casualties. As of now, three people have been reported killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Seventeen people have been rescued. Russia has once again deliberately attacked ordinary civilians and residential buildings. In Kyiv, more than 130 such buildings have been damaged in total.
It is important that our partners not simply stand by and watch as human lives are being destroyed. Pressure must be put on Russia, and it must be forced to end this aggression. It is very important to continue supporting our air defense. New contributions to the PURL program, active cooperation to build up our anti-ballistic defense – all of this is necessary to protect our people. Russia must be left with no opportunity to continue this terror. I thank all partners who stand with our people and are ready to help.
