He - and everyone else - should think twice about having sex with someone they don't know very well.
My sympathy in this case is with the trans woman. What she did was fundamentally no different from lying about her age, wealth or ethnicity. If the 'victim' fancied her enough to have consensual sex, he really has no grounds for complaint. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I found that Ukraine has turned the tables not only on Russia but also on the Western world. Militarily, the Ukrainians think they have virtually stopped the Russian summer offensive, with Moscow’s forces gaining minimal territory at tremendous cost. www.kyivpost.com/opinion/61306

Minister Chikli also thinks Keir Starmer is Palestinian. The lunatics have taken over the asylum.
Tommy Robinson retweets a tweet calling Keir Starmer a 'Palestinian'. Jews who oppose his ministerial invitation to visit Israel are being called 'capos'.
It's a very good article, but it isn't really appealing for a 'turning point'; its conclusions are rather more sombre. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Blame lies solely with the terrorist and the actual promoters of antisemitism and antisemitic violence. Do not exploit this monstrous attack for your own political ends.

Please everyone do NOT blame the Manchester antisemitic terrorist attack EITHER on Jews for supporting Israel's policy in Gaza, whether they do or not, OR on people for condemning Israel's policy and supporting Palestinians.
The far right is already exploiting the terrorist attack at the Manchester synagogue to stoke more hatred and division.
Solidarity with our Jewish sisters and brothers in the face of this monstrous attack.
