Disappointing. Are we to conclude that censorship and police raids of public events, featuring political opponents, are a cause for giggles on Labour front bench? Hardly reassuring for the future of UK democratic debate

Kirstie Allsopp Kirstie, I didn’t say a word about any abuse I’ve taken. I’ve always acknowledged that I’m in an extremely fortunate position regarding my freedom to speak. What I did was give you examples of what has happened to people who put their livelihoods on the line to try and prevent…

I feel less safe the moment I see this flag.

It tells me
1/ you don’t understand the reality of biology
2/ when push comes to shove you’ll side with blokes over me as a woman.

Dear Kirstie,

Kara1818 🙋🏽‍♀️ Why are you still posting clips of this dying hedgehog?
She isn't a photo opportunity, she's a vulnerable animal in desperate need of help.

Kara1818 🙋🏽‍♀️ I think Kara1818 🙋🏽‍♀️ is enjoying this suffering. Why did you ask for advice and then not act on it?

With over 13 million #dogs in the UK and an increasing number of irresponsible or uninformed owners, we need an honest conversation about dogs. #walking #nature NearbyWild #RewildTheEarth 🍃💚🍃 Jo Cartmell #RewildTheEarth 🍃💚🍃 Simon Leadbeater🍃💚🍃HerbiⓋore & sheep keeper Chris Packham Hilary McGrady Craig Bennett tracybrighten.com/environment/fr…

Social media is now full of pet dogs worrying pregnant sheep or newborn lambs

Jenni Russell on blistering form: writing in The Times and The Sunday Times she condemns surrogacy, backs Pope Francis calls for a ban & highlights our campaign.

Surrogacy is the trade in human children; we will never stop fighting it.

The time to speak out is now.

Fffs The Guardian editors, it's not 2015 anymore- you can't just publish inaccuracy and smearing of sensible women and hope the world won't catch on. Julie Bindel did NOT liken transpeople to Savile, she was obviously talking about doctors; and FYI she is not a member of CAN-SG, she…
