RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.
Trans Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Lies. @wesstreeting.bsky.social @nhsconfed.org
The journal front page. At the top, there is a large illustration of an IV bag with two tubes marked ‘NHS’ and ‘private.’ A fist is squeezing the NHS tube. At the bottom of the page is text and my byline photo.
I love this illustration by Thomas Pullin in today’s Guardian to accompany my column on the surge in private healthcare amongst the young. Just the right element of menacing.
@bsky.app why are trans users being suspended when JK Rowling is an actually bully towards a whole group. How can you tolerate on Blue Sky a person who is cited on Wikipedia as Holocaust denier and named in a genocide red flag by Lemkin Institute. Asking as a person of Jewish descent.

I want to see non-disabled people shouting about the disability benefit cuts. If you spoke out about trans rights, abortion rights, or migrant rights in recent weeks? Good on you! If you aren’t doing the same for disabled people, ask yourself why.
There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

4.5 million children are already living in poverty in the UK.
Labour had a choice. They could have rebalanced our economy by taxing the super-rich fairly.
Instead they CHOSE to remove vital support from ill and disabled people.
We won't let them forget it.

these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions
Moral values are utterly consistent.
I support Palestinians, Uyghurs, and Ukrainians.
I condemn Netanyahu, Jinping, and Putin.
Trump — and Starmer as his poodle — have no real interest in peace or resistance to their war machines.
It’s vital for the Left to make the case to opponents but there is also a good reason some don’t want to “work with rivals.” Many on the right don’t just hold different opinions, they don’t share basic values. You’re not intolerant if you won’t work with a racist. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
New review for the absolutely amazing Welsh metal heads @WEARECELAVI (you can find them with that name on Instagram).

So freaking exhausting seeing lies told about trans people every single day - with zero trans people present. We are the same size as the UK Jewish population. How can it be we have zero reporters, presenters, politicians? 🤷♀️ Statistically impossible. There must be a specific reason.
Theres always Hay on Wye. They have a poetry store there, one of my fav places on earth that shop. Also could team up with Patrick Jones.
I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe.
She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today.
RIP Elisa.
Keir wont say a word because he is all for it.
1/ JK Rowling wants you to be scared and disgusted by people who are trans and transition. She wants you to think of all trans people as creepy predators - so she’ll use old photos, pre-transition. Her tactics are essentially no different to thugs whipping up mobs screaming that all Muslims…
Gotta admit, I had intense fears of a second Trump administration but even I didn’t call Project 2025 UNDERSELLING his moves.
These are the same picture.
@robinince.bsky.social Hey I have sent you a DM.
media companies simply love to pay out millions to random podcast hosts while constantly laying off the writers, editors, and media workers of every other stripe who create all the actual value
In my years of reporting on LGBTQ news this was by far the hardest.
But we are still here. You made it to Friday. You lived. Good job. That wasn’t easy.
Through a diversity of tactics, we will continue to live.
Rest up, drink water, find community, so that we can all be here tomorrow too.
Not today, Satan
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Keir Starmer wrote in the Daily Mail attacking a Green campaigner.
He replied: "I don’t virtue signal. I’m doing this for my grandchildren. Starmer is virtue signalling to the Daily Mail and the fossil fuel lobby.”
Starmer is so awful at all of this.
