This was worse than the last time Trump met Zelensky. It was also deeply weird.

UK governments plural have yet to work out that this kind of ridiculous hype actually undermines their position in adding to the disappointment when benefits of trade deals are not noticeable.
PM Keir Starmer told me from Chequers today that signing the India trade deal - along with deals with the US & EU - has put the UK “back on the world stage”. So far, feedback from groups who were concerned abt the deal is relatively upbeat t.co/jl5UD8NYen

Aye, "Stats" tell us our population is declining. But it wouldn't decline if Westminster rejoined the EU or allows more Commonwealth citizens to resettle in the UK. So it will be by design that the UK is depopulated and not a natural depopulation.

NHS gender services were poor when I transitioned more than 25 years ago. They tried to keep private provision to an absolute minimum and harassed anyone outside their system. NHS GICs have worsened since to now being basically non existent and any private care is effectively banned.
Now’s a good time to sign this petition. I know it’s about adults rather than children, but if we get it over 100,000, it’s a good way of keeping the pressure on about gender-affirming healthcare generally.
