Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

It’s been a grim fortnight. I’ve needed to ignore some of it.
Do we now have a situation in the uk where a trans person whose place of work is somewhere that’s open to the public will have to use one loo whilst behind the bar, let’s say, but as soon as they clock off can use the other?
Absurd.

Cis people have had their chance to run Britain, and I think we can all agree they’ve made a right pig’s ear of it. It’s time for them to step aside and let someone else have a go.

If you want to understand why the BBC's stance on trans rights - only platforming cis people (and only those with a sceptical perspective) - is so outrageous imagine if it only platformed men talking about women's rights (and only those with a sceptical perspective).

New Zealand is the latest country to ban conversion practices.

Hilary Cass is not and never was an expert in children's gender healthcare. She's a hired assassin paid by the UK government to give them cover to torture trans kids.

To reinforce this, because of the BBC’s transphobia and racism, I canceled my TV licence in 2012, which was so long ago I struggled to carry the old-style heavy, glass cathode ray tube telly I had then out to my car to take it to the dump.
I really have never missed it, not even for one moment.

The BBC are raising the licence fee after a year in which 300,000 households stopped paying it. No better time to cancel your licence fee if you haven't already done so.
