Hold on guys, middle class commentators in the Unlimited Genocide Country are reliably informing me he was a bad guy so maybe it's not that bad to kidnap the leaders of other countries?

Probably not an exaggeration to say that the US government was emboldened to do this by the fact there was no significant domestic or international establishment opposition to all the boat murders in the Caribbean and Pacific in the last few months

"We need to look after our own first."
Home Office Ministers state publicly, on the record, that they are deliberately making life worse for older people and people with disabilities who depend on care services, but it's worth it because it reduces net migration.

If the reporting on the Peggie decision tells us anything, it should be that the way news gets reported in this country has little to do with truth, and much more to do with narrative - as well as whose heavily spun press release lands on journos desks first.

Leaving aside the fact the ruling is overwhelmingly unfavourable for Peggie and makes clear she is dishonest and harassed the doctor, I wonder why this story quotes an utterly irrelevant opinion from transphobic group Sex Matters with no corresponding quote from any org that supports trans rights?

My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:
The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.

Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

This language is not vague. It is a call for the party of government to forcibly prevent trade unions from abiding by the position unanimously voted for by their delegates.

One of the things that’s maddening about this is that *everyone knows* that casting “male loneliness” as a great social emergency—like the “birth rate” panic—is a way to legitimize attacks on women’s freedom. It’s taboo to point this out even though it serves literally no other function!
“Male loneliness” is a vague, empirically unfalsifiable Potemkin village of an argument meant to smuggle yet more anti feminism into popular consensus.
