I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Violence against women and girls in the online space is a growing problem. As politicians and activists we have to be vigilant against forces which seek to silence women. Whether it’s digital abuse or the physical threat that it can quickly turn into, there is no excuse.

The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.
Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn

Violence against women and girls remains widespread, yet funding for vital support services is still uncertain. Today marks the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and the start of a campaign to raise awareness and drive action.

But the TERFs still aren't happy. Why you might ask?

Kathleen Stock has written an article against "abortion permissiveness". She claims abortion requires "justification" saying the state should limit "unacceptable decision-making" by women about their own bodies.
This is who anti-trans activists proclaim as the feminist thought leaders of our time.

I was honoured to unveil a plaque for Sam Green, the first openly gay politician to be elected in the UK.
He did so much for his community and his courage and dedication remind us to keep championing equality, respect and the rights of everybody.

We should be doing all we can to strengthen our ties and rebuild our relationship on the route to Rejoining the EU. 🇪🇺

Today is the beginning of Trans Awareness Week.
It’s an opportunity for us to celebrate trans people, acknowledge the challenges they face, and reflect on how we as a society can work together to improve trans people’s lives.
