Your Party Scotland have come out with a statement on its behaviour yesterday.

Interestingly this is the 2nd time the party has claimed it sent out "unauthorised communication" following the previous infighting between Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana over the botched Your Party membership launch.
Statement on recent events:

We apologise for a number of measures undertaken on this account recently including a mass blocking of accounts and disabling of replies. This was done by an individual activist with account access without consultation, and has now been addressed internally. (1/2)

Artist impressions of new buildings shouldn't just be produced with sunny outlooks, they should also be forced to show what it'll look like when it's pissing down. Especially projects in Manchester.
I refer to him as Dick Dorkins because he really doesn't like it!

honestly anyone spouting their official party line that they have to wait for their conference before deciding whether to support the dignity and humanity of trans people can immediately get down the fucking toilet
Ah yes, @yourparty.scot, blocking trans people for asking them to openly support trans people and pointedly refusing to do so because "we just gotta wait for the conference".

"Actually, last month Zarah welcomed Mark Serwotka to the party, former General Secretary of the PCS Union? Anyway, his wife founded this charity, Woman's Place. I suppose the name's meant to be ironic, because apparently they're critical of the whole notion of gender? It sounds really progressive."

"Have you considered waiting for the conference in November before accusing Your Party of being transphobic? Because we're having a vote on whether to support trans then. Me, I don't have a problem with them. I was actually in the same room as Jeremy when he said he wasn't bothered about it either."

In a weird way, you've got to take your hat off to Jeffrey Epstein for successfully running a sex trafficking ring without a single one of his rich friends finding out about it.

I’ve just received a new @thedailytism.com t-shirt for occasions when I don’t feel like a genderless goblin. It even comes with the classic autistic experience of having to cut out the labels!
"bshy.social" would be a more appropriate domain for me.

This is what pivoting right to "win" always accomplishes.
”If Keir Starmer had sought to hold the door open for Nigel Farage, he couldn’t have done a better job. He has manufactured disillusionment and alienation on an industrial scale. By adopting Farage-like positions on asylum and immigration, he legitimises Reform while delegitimising Labour.”

It means breaking with hundreds of years of tradition, but it can’t wait. As hard-right figures spread division and laud autocrats, a fail-safe is vital, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The study, conducted by researchers who had reportedly “run out of ideas”, showed that while going through life feeling invisible is painful, it’s nowhere near as bad as someone making a comment on a minor change to your appearance.
