Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap.
Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long.
This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters.

I know it is just the law and all that , but it still jars to see ‘Graham Linehan cleared of harassment’ when I think of just how much he has harassed (and spread lies about) friends of mine and never been shy of bothering me either .

My most woke opinion is that "woke" at root is a beautiful concept: active socio-political consciousness in the context of the Black American liberation struggle. And the way it's been turned into a sneering pejorative is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen in Western political discourse.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Especially awkward, because they correctly understand this is people much like them being stitched up by their media colleagues, and nobody can say it is without being called a wackadoodle conspiracy theorist, a thing they themselves have done to many other people in similar circumstances.

The key part of his shift, as the article notes, is the focus on words and thoughts rather than structures. But there’s more to be said about how the former then makes the whole problem go away:
1. X says something racist.
2. “But he isn’t a racist”.
3. So the thing he said can’t really be racist.

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

Did some dickhead on a protest hold up a nasty, racist sign? Probably, some dickhead usually does. But a public order offence 400 miles from my house makes no difference at all to questions like “Should we destroy the postwar liberal order, just to protect a gaggle of fascist murderers who hate it”.

No doubt there are lots of unpleasant people on the “stop the genocide” side of the debate too but the handy thing is, that is *completely irrelevant to the question of whether or not the genocide should end now*, and whether the people responsible around the world should be prosecuted for it.

Starmer has just ended, by dictatorial fiat, a harm-reduction policy that protected minority groups dating back to the murder of Stephen Lawrence, because he hates trans people.
1993: Stephen Lawrence is murdered by racists.
1999: The MacPherson Inquiry recommends recording of non-crime hate incidents.
2005: After the Discrimination Law Review, non-crime hate incidents begin being recorded by UK police.
2025: Mainstream transphobia ends a harm reduction policy that worked.

The move comes as an investigation into Father Ted creator Graham Linehan is dropped, after his arrest over a post on X.
