I have come to the conclusion the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces should not even come to Parliament. It is misleading and has caused distress for my trans constituents.

I urge @bphillipsonMP to reject it on grounds of practicality and human rights.

No way is this four portions….

Any way I’m off to eat for four people. 😂

Always tell yourself: growth happens during rest. Gym: activation. Rest: growth.

There’s something to be said for this weight lifting malarkey

It doesn’t solve the over zealous censorship, nor the demand to collect message meta data, nor the idea of client side scanning. The law is is very problematic

Governments can pick this privacy-first system, one that genuinely protects children, or they can keep surveillance rules that demand ID checks, message scanning, and giant data logs.

They can’t have both.

Why it’s safe
• Children can’t fake the age stamp.
• Hackers have nothing useful to steal; there is no big database.
• End-to-end encryption stays untouched.
• No company or government sees where you go online.

What stays private
• Your name
• Your full date of birth
• Your address
• Any copy of your ID
• Your browsing history
• Your private messages

How it could be set up
1. A trusted body issues a digital age credential to your phone after a one-time ID check.
2. When a site asks for proof, your phone key code answer.
3. The site sees only that answer. It does not see your name, date of birth, address, or any ID images

There is a way to keep children safe without tracking adults or collecting identity documents. The goal is simple. A site needs to know only one thing. Is this user old enough.

The child protection is a smoke screen for what the rest of the act contains. You are even using fallacious arguments and suggest a direct connection between adults giving their ID and protecting a child.

They’re the biggest restriction in liberty and privacy ever.

#OnlineSafetyAct

Politicians need to decide:
- is it a verification gateway that halts children
- or is it a compliance gateway that adults must use

Adults are rightly concerned about giving their personal ID info to unknown, unregulated providers, risking data protection issues and leaks.

And done. Now to EAT.

It’s bicep and triceps night tonight once I’ve done soldering lolzzzz

@cactusguysam.bsky.social hiiiii

Agreeeeeeeeed

I need to use this more

I not trust the disability reforms or the concessions.

Please do not talk over us, listen to us and take our concerns seriously. Believe us when we say things about the government’s reforms.

The Government’s Impact Assessment: A Flawed and Incomplete Document

Last week the Government published it’s Impact Assessment (IA) alongside the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill, as is standard practice for major legislative proposals. However, a detailed review of this…

No Data, No Dialogue, No Mandate: MPs Push Back on Disability Cuts A cross-party group of senior MPs has tabled what is called ‘a reasoned amendment’ to the Government’s Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill.  Thirteen Labour select committee chairs—among them Meg Hillier (Treasury), Diana Johnson (Home Affairs) and Sarah Champion (International Development)—have asked the House of Commons to refuse the Bill a Second Reading.  Their text highlights the complete absence of consultation with disabled people, the lack of crucial economic evidence, and the Government’s own admission that the reforms would deepen poverty.

Is this Labour getting it”? Why don’t they just get on with their T4 programme for disabled people.

Remember… Remember. There was a moment — not so long ago — when the world paused.Not by choice. Not by comfort. But in that strange, uncertain silence, something flickered awake in many of us.You stepped off the treadmill. And for the first time in a long time, you breathed. You noticed the way time stretches when you’re not being watched.
