Or when a man attacked me so violently that I ended up in hospital, and this happened in a very busy train station at about 6pm on a weekday, with CCTV cameras everywhere, the 🐷 just don't want to know.

Given recent trends in the UK, I expect we’ll be seeing people being arrested in 3-6 months for holding signs saying, “I Oppose Trans Genocide. I Support Bash Back.”

Our city is being invaded by transphobes. Allowing this conference to go ahead represents a failure of leadership and safeguarding by the Brighton Centre and Brighton Council.

"Our city is being invaded by transphobes this weekend." Trans Pride Brighton issues statement ahead of "anti-trans" Filia Conference

This weekend the Brighton Centre will host the Filia Conference 2025, an event which bills itself as a feminist event, raising issues about global women's rights. Sounds great, right? Well, it’s a lie...

'He insisted the purpose of debt recovery fees is “not to generate profit but to act as a fair and effective deterrent against deliberate non-payment”.'

That is a penalty charge surely? Which is illegal.

Parking ticket debt recovery firms make ‘disproportionately high’ 63% profits

The companies are used by parking operators to attempt to collect money for unpaid tickets.

Killing random Jewish worshippers at synagogues in the Diaspora doesn't help or avenge Palestinians. It does, however, support the Zionist narrative that Jews are under siege everywhere, which is used to manufacture consent for genocide.

If you take another company’s purchase invoice, change the name on it to your own, and claim it on your tax return, HMRC will catch you.

Stop making me have to accept AI, eg let me uninstall it from my phone, or any app have a manual control switch.
I've been graphic designer and 3D modeler for 15 years. I can solve problems way faster then AI glitchiness not to mention principals of an artist.

How the 🤬 is that supposed to work. Tariffs are a tax on goods that are brought across the border. That is just not how film distribution works these days. Does he know /anything/ about how cross-border tax works?

Hello, JK Rowling wasn't an impoverished single mother because of trans people. She was an impoverished single mother because of capitalism and the patriarchy, the two things she is now enthusiastically supporting.

I have come to the conclusion the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces should not even come to Parliament. It is misleading and has caused distress for my trans constituents.

I urge @bphillipsonMP to reject it on grounds of practicality and human rights.
