Both the Greens and Reform are soft on Putin and soft on NATO.
The greens want to pull out of NATO and Reform’s Leader says Putin is the leader he admires the most.
Labour takes a different approach: a NATO-first strategy, increasing defence spending and renewing our forces.

Labour was built to give workers a voice and fight for a better deal. Workers' are scratching their heads with the lack of delivery over the last 18 months. Labour need to stop being embarrassed about standing up for workers and communities.

They're too busy pandering to the gender critical unionist parties. It's trans people versus votes and the votes have come out on top.

Had the referendum been binding, rather than advisory, the result could have been overturned due to the illegalities, as would the results of an illegal election.
As the government chose to act as if the result were binding, then the rules for an illegal election should have applied.

This ruling is disappointing but one thing is clear: the EHRC’s draft code of practice got the law wrong and must be changed. Women's and men's toilets can be provided on a trans-inclusive basis for customers and service users. [1/3]
Today’s judgment makes one thing very clear: the reality of trans lives still goes ignored by the courts.

Seeing GC women talking about public toilets as places of privacy, decency and safety is incredulous to me. If I wanted to be safe, it's the last place I would go. You use the loo, wash your hands, well more than often women don't bother and then they leave. That's it. Trans women are welcome.

Brilliant to see so many leading organisations in Northern Ireland - like Queens University and Belfast City Council - quitting Twitter as it’s incompatible with their values.
Maybe Scotland could learn a lesson here and do the decent thing too…?

You cannot have an ethical puberty-blocker “trial” in a country where puberty-blockers are banned. It will always be unethical, it cannot be anything but.
