So the suggestion from the Very Serious People in Labour is that we’ll use Trident (i.e. start a nuclear war) to defend Greenland from the USA? 🤔

Really need more evidence of Sharron Davies, new Tory peer, campaigning for women’s rights rather than just against trans rights.

It’s the last day of Queeriosities at Copeland Park in Peckham and I’m raising money for The Sameer Project who are working on the ground in Gaza.
