What on Earth is this? An "in depth" BBC article about free speech in the UK that only cites examples of right-wing/ 'anti-woke' speech being suppressed. How can you mention Lucy Connolly but completely ignore Palestine Action / Just Stop Oil? Gob-smacking. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Brian Kilmeade endorses euthanizing homeless people: "Involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill them."

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality.
We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.
something something "empathy is a made up term" mumble mumble
Thanks everyone
Trans women are women, trans men are men, and non-binary and intersex folks are valid just as they are. It's time this was reflected in the law of the land, and LGBT+ Lib Dems will be at the forefront of pushing for that change.
Lots of love to our trans+ siblings and their loved ones today. 💛🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
The UK Supreme Court overlaid in the colours of the trans pride flag — blue, pink and white. Overlaid bold text reads “TRANS WOMAN = WOMAN”. In the top left corner is the LGBT+ Liberal Democrats logo, and along the bottom is a small line of text: “Promoted by LGBT+ Lib Dems, 1 Vincent Square, London SW1P 2PN.”
We are studying today's judgement by the UK Supreme Court.
Nothing they rule will change our solidarity with the trans+ community and with everyone who seeks to live their lives under control of their own bodies, and free from poverty, ignorance or conformity.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.
“Trump was triumphant in his first speech to Congress” — Reuters
Appreciate the media’s assistance in their misaligned coverage of an authoritative regime.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
probably because they were more removed from the impacts of Israel's actions??
Normality bias - ‘the tendency to underestimate the likelihood or impact of a potential hazard, based on the belief that things will continue as they have in the past’ - is a very hard habit to break.
The fucking rage I feel watching this. The goddamn disrespect for the president of a country who has been at war for three years, telling him he needs to be more thankful. Playing in everyone’s faces when he’s been publicly supporting Putin. Holy fuck.

Terrific resignation letter by Anneliese Dodds, this.
Doge is auditing NASA today.
This is absurd. The owner of Space X should not be auditing NASA.
It’s a massive conflict of interest.

Congress was denied entry to both the U.S. Department of Education and the Treasury, where Musk staffers blocked the doors. Along with its appropriations responsibilities, Congress holds oversight authority over federal agencies. Blocking congressional access to these agencies is illegal.

GB News might not like it, but #StopFundingHate works - and advertisers know that being aligned with this toxic channel is bad for their brand.

I wonder why the Trump would move to limit prosecution for crimes related to foreign lobbying 🤔 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Imagine a judge saying a racist could use the n-slur or an anti-semite the k-slur "as long as it was not done 'offensively' or 'gratuitously'."
Our judiciary is increasingly a source of shame.
They shut them down there. Let’s follow them here. Pass it along. https://bsky.app/profile/altusaid.bsky.social
