My microwave sings a little song when my Hot Pocket is done. Should it have the right to vote?

Would love some in-depth numbers on what the majority of 20-30 somethings basically paying a 9% higher marginal tax rate has actually done to economic behaviour. Feels very under-discussed bsky.app/profile/igma...

Student loan repayment thresholds frozen for a further three years.

More debt burden falling on graduates.

And even more reason to cut university places by 20-30%.

While Bonnie Blue is famous for having sex with 1,000 men in a day, the average Briton has only ever slept with 4 people

So what do Britons consider to be small and large numbers of sexual partners?

Most common answer
0-5 people - small
6-10 - neither
15+ - large

🚨 We’re disgusted, but not surprised. Labour has now fully sided with anti-trans voices. Bridget Phillipson just appointed gender-critical Dr Mary-Ann Stevenson as EHRC chair ignoring both human rights committees. The UK isn’t safe, it’s time to take this fight to the governments door!

Holy crap, Bridget Phillipson has appointed Dr Mary-Ann Stevenson as the new chair of the EHRC, despite the explicit objections of both @commonswec.parliament.uk and the Joint Committee on Human Rights here: committees.parliament.uk/publications...

The Minister for Women and Equalities has confirmed the appointment of Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson as the next Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission. Dr Stephenson was announced as the UK government’s preferred candidate in June and completed a pre-appointment hearing in front of the Women and Equalities Committee and the Joint Committee on Human Rights on 1 July. Dr Stephenson will take up the post from 1 December 2025, when Baroness Falkner’s extended term comes to an end. Responding to the confirmation of her appointment, Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson, the next Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, said: “It is a great honour to be appointed as the new Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission at such a critical time. “I have spent over 30 years building my career across the equality and human rights sector and I am delighted to have the opportunity to bring my insight and experience to lead the EHRC with compassion, honesty and dedication. “I look forward to working with the Government and all stakeholders alongside my new colleagues at the EHRC to uphold equality and human rights and ensure that everyone is treated with respect and dignity.” John Kirkpatrick, Chief Executive of the Equality and Human Rights Commission said: “We welcome confirmation of the appointment of Dr Stephenson as our next Chair. “She brings a track record of working collaboratively with diverse stakeholders, and her experience in addressing inequalities and human rights issues will be invaluable as we deliver our new Strategic Plan and continue our work to make Britain a fairer country. “Now our next Chair has been confirmed, we look forward to progress being made on the appointment of additional Commissioners, including a Wales Commissioner, and a new Deputy Chair and Scotland Commissioner to replace Dr Lesley Sawers, whose term will also end on 30 November 2025.”

It is so wild that Tomorrowland have been able to source a new main stage in less than 24 hours, what a team 👏

genuinely so gutted about the Tomorrowland main stage fire... the rest of the festival is great, but nothing compares to the vibe and experience of being around that stage with tens of thousands of people.
