absolutely disgusted by this news after the Women's Institute said in 2023 that it was "proud" to welcome trans members (www.thepinknews.com/2023/04/18/w...) - this government and country has absolutely betrayed trans women and it's so horrible to watch

horrible news and a huge loss, teen vogue was amazing on politics
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

so much of this is so fucked up but the "never paid a penny in tax" part is just nonsensical, especially when you factor in the fact that a person on ILR has usually paid *thousands* in visa fees to get to that point
Here Lam explicitly sets out her proposal - which is official Conservative Party policy - to deport long-standing legal permanent residents who have *ever* claimed any benefit, including the state pension or child benefit (even if the child is British), or who earn less than £39K.
