Excuse me if I disbelieve UK Tory government claims that obstructing Scottish gender recognition reform is about protecting women's rights, when they plan on ramming through ripping up EU laws which give us rights to equal pay, maternity protection etc. Not to mention clean rivers and beaches and thousands of other regulations which the government can't even list.

@francis Indeed; both are in the pockets of higher beings i.e. big corporations, their owners, and CEOs.

Please RT. Dozens have come forward, but hundreds are needed.

Why do private donors fund Labour? In addition to salaries & expenses MPs may receive sizeable sums from private donors whose motivation is opaque as w Yvette Cooper, Wes Streeting & Dan Jarvis. Labour’s funding under Tony Blair stil has the power to shock https://www.jewishvoiceforlabour.org.uk/article/why-do-private-donors-fund-labour/

@andrewmeyerson @Stephen87386723 @SteveBarclay @Specsavers Aye, here are the Tories, leading by example.

Dear @SteveBarclay,
I get paid £15.50/hr working in A&E on a 48hr/wk contract and I'm on a 30min unpaid break during a night shift. Your NHS negligence kills 500 people a week and you're telling us to work harder?! May I prescribe a visit to @Specsavers?
@bobjmsn Interestingly, it also knows that the alternate squad won't undo any of this either. Or why would it bother?

We're here! Your favourite Liverpool Makerspace is now on Mastodon.
We have been operating in Liverpool since 2011 providing a community-driven space to make things, whether that's digital or actual.
We offer a combination of coworking office and workshop, where anyone can use our high speed internet, laser cutters, 3D printers, and other equipment, or simply sit at a comfortable desk with a laptop and a cup of tea or coffee.
@mammutsapiens plus Lester Pigot went to prison for similar amount & he gets to keep his freedom & his job.

No matter how much we tweet, the majority of people living in the UK will not have heard about Nadim Zahawi, one time Chancellor of the Exchequer, not paying taxes that he should have. The man was in charge of the HMRC. What the hell are UK tv channels doing?

As a cis het woman, the way a trans person gets a Gender Recognition Certificate has no impact on my daily life or rights whatsoever. The rights conferred by a GRC have no impact on my daily life or rights. Trans people have never limited or threatened my daily life, rights or safety. Just one person's experience/opinion? Sure. That's the same as every gender critical argument. Anecdata is not evidence. Evidence shows Self ID does not cause problems for society and makes trans lives easier.
This is the Torygraph - my word.

Tell me you all saw this in the Telegraph 🧐😄
Best part: "If the first elephant in the room is that Brexit’s days are numbered, then the second is that the Conservative brand cannot possibly survive such an ignominious outcome."

Nadhim Zahawi has agreed to pay the £3,000,000 tax bill he lied about and hid from HMRC.
He should be sent to jail for fraud.
RT if you want to see him in jail.

I *despise* this notion of British people having an “instinctive defensiveness” of monarchy. It is not instinct; it is the product of heavy and constant propagandising.
RT @SpillerOfTea
We’re completely comfortable with saying to young people, “Make decisions that will affect the course of your entire professional life at (or before) the age of 16,” but not prepared to consider that they know themselves well enough to recognise their own gender?
Fuck off.
RT @SpillerOfTea
16-year-olds take important decisions all the time. In Scotland, they can get married, have babies and rent their own place.
In a few weeks, my son will be choosing the subjects that will dictate what degree course he can access and, by extension, what careers are open to him.
