BBC headlines today with Shabana Mahmood "she will do what it takes to secure our borders". This is about blackmailing African countries to accept people she deports.
This follows Starmer's speech yesterday where he was saying the same things.
Not going after white people doesn't make them good.

Tired and grumpy so let's read Starmer's speech today.
Tl;Dr:
The speech is a fauxpology for Mandelson (not for appointing him) that descends in to vapid rhetoric and an appeal to xenophobic Reform voters, while trying to present it as being totes woke to be racist.
You can almost hear the Strategy.

James OB on the radio doing a call in about how to get kids to appreciate education and learn about the world.
Then put in the middle of it a rant about why we need to isolate kids from the world by banning social media 🤦🏼♀️

I love how hopeful Quantum Leap (reboot) is, but dang this episode about a trans kid hits hard.
Only been a few years, but the episode is like "daaayum it was tough for trans kinds a decade ago, but we threw Trump out and it got better".

Ragequit Farcry 4 because out of nowhere there's a boss fight which uses all new mechanics for both boss and weapons, the boss can kill in two hits, there are multiple filters, and I can't even figure out which blob on screen is the boss or if I've hit it.

Watching Dispatches from Elsewhere
It was so good to see a show with a trans person shown as someone who gets to be loved in any way other than as a sex object.
Then they had the mandatory "Trans woman gets jumped walking home at night" scene, so a Content Warning for that.

From menus vanishing, to git integration missing basic functionality, to packages trying to build in a different version of .Net to the one selected, it's a mess.
But have to use it for work.

This appears to be EHRC lying as the committee didn't say it wasn't warranted as the committee hasn't considered it yet.
Falkner also does the old "not our fault the law is transphobic lolololol" and "FEMALE & transphobe rights > trans soz".

Good job BBC.
Really showing that lack of bias 🙄
Let's be clear:
We do not let them earn money.
We demonise them.
They are kept slightly better than prisoners.
The least we can do is make sure they don't die.

The UK could switch to renewables for the price of two nuclear reactors.
Everyone's energy bill could drop to standing charge only, to cover grid costs & maintenance.
If we pushed further, we could export that energy to pay for that too.

She's not doing austerity, while explaining she's cut so much, the debt is reducing faster than expected.
That she's helping workers and "mom 'n' pop" businesses, while explaining she's handing out enormous tax breaks to big businesses.
