A little selection of my favourite words for the season. Some beautiful, others potentially necessary. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

The UK drinks less, smokes less, is better informed, more highly educated, more likely to survive serious diseases... than ever ever before. Holiday thought: snap out of the gloom guys.

🚨BREAKING: Employment Rights Bill passes in the House of Lords and will become law.

This is an historic day for working people across the country, and the trade unions who represent them.

A big thank you to Angela Rayner for her work on 2 bills which are going for Royal Assent (likely this week).

The Employment Rights Bill
The Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Both are flagship pieces of legislation from our Labour government.

She guided both through most stages in Parliament.

And just like that, the historic Employment Rights Bill lands. Sick pay from day one. Day-one parental leave. Unfair dismissal rights after six months. Ban fire-and-rehire. Bereavement leave. Protections for pregnant women. Tougher redundancy rules. Fair Work Agency to enforce rights. #ukpolitics

My blog post on the PATHWAYS puberty blocker trial:

"Ten million pounds and two hundred childhoods, spent not to discover whether puberty blockers “work”, but to postpone the moment when the NHS finally has to admit they never did and never could."

Every time this stuff happens, my thought process begins to consider what kind of justice will be required in 3 years for these people.
ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Many of us who don't believe in universal gender identity have noticed this. I won't pay for the Torygraph but it's good to have this confirmed.

it's unbelievable. we're living in the upside down. We've had - what - only three generations of women able to obtain degrees at Cambridge and now ...
it's a complete betrayal of all the women that fought for the same educational opportunities as men.

It's pretty cool that the US economy is propped up entirely by continuing work on software thats only real functional uses are eroding consensus reality, spreading often politically motivated misinformation, and for various scams like impersonating your grandma and saying she's been kidnapped

Bishops in the House of Lords have continued to discuss the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill today.

The Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell, warned that this legislation would unleash a ‘fundamental’ change for the worse in society, putting vulnerable people at risk.

that's well over the required 5, thanks everyone. They will lock it at 20 until it's approved.

I behaved myself when filling in the form* so as far as I can see the only reason for not approving it is duplication or it was reviewed by a Nazi. We shall see.

Bear in mind that if you held up a sign saying "I support genocide", you would not be arrested under the Terrorism Act.
Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

One reason why I reject left/right coded politics is that positions on individual topics cannot and should not be bundled.

For example, various forms of group rights campaigns are perceived as left-coded but I see nothing progressive in rolling back women’s rights and castrating children.
