Absolutely right. Like Chris, I resent the framing that European governments are learning this from the US. It’s totally routine for hundreds of black African people to drown in the Mediterranean when trying to reach Europe. The EU, and its homegrown structural racism, enabled that all by itself.
Rather obviously so. European governments are closer to the Trumpists in practice than people would like to think.

New post: LABOUR'S SECTION 28 IS HERE - ACT NOW.
I explain how the Labour government's proposed revisions to the guidance on "keeping children in education" are designed to erase trans children in England. But it's not a done deal - there is plenty we can do to oppose this.

Labour’s Section 28 is here – act now

honestly tired of trying to convince people that trump's immigration policy is not really about violent undocumented immigrants or even just undocumented immigrants, but immigrants in general and even non-white people more broadly.

What's happening here is that too often the judiciary infantilises trans people - it does not listen hard enough to what they say is the reality of their existence. That has to change if trans people are to enjoy protection under the law - my personal take on where the UK judiciary is going wrong.
Trans lives are real and they matter. The courts must recognise that
The High Court’s decision is wrong and we will appeal it

When Yvette Cooper brought in the Palestine Action ban - she did it knowing full well it would destabilise and undermine peace in N. Ireland too.

It's worth noting that this was also a pretext to open up new services designed and run by people who push an unproven pseudoscientific "Gender Exploratory Therapy" model that has been likened to conversion therapy by international experts.
In a functional country, this would be a scandal. A service suffering only from chronic underfunding was ripped apart because the media created a myth of 1000s of complaints of malpractice. The truth - as in my family’s experience - was very different.

How Arsenal handled all this, prior to him leaving in the summer, up to and including considering giving him a new contract, is a stain that will never wash out from the club.
I love Arsenal more than most things in life but today I am ashamed of them.
