Thinking of my late mother on #InternationalWomensDay She was a lifelong socialist who volunteered at a Woman's refuge. She would be appalled that there are Labour MPs who support men pretending to be women being able to gain access to women's safe spaces.

Labour LGB Statement on Puberty Blockers & Cross-sex Hormones We would like to state that we fully support Wes Streeting for his action to ban puberty blockers (PBs) indefinitely in the UK. However, we are deeply concerned about the proposed PB trial. No child should be

This will reduce work-related stress for the priesthood who must be working around the clock to administer the rite of exorcism to 15,000 people every year 🤣

When Stonewall et al were serious organisations campaigning for lesbian and gay rights, they achieved everything they set out to achieve and more. Since their embrace of 'queer theory', they've become a sick joke. I was lucky in having loving parents who accepted my homosexuality

I haven't seen it and dont intend to watch but cannot avoid wall-to-wall coverage of Celebrity Big Brother. I suspect Daley Thompson is going to fare well: a genuine sports super star and a jolly good egg to boot, what with his exemplary support for female athletes.

Politicians abandoned posterity and treated our national assets like an auction sale. It began with us selling the plant to China and ends with us desperately importing coking coal in the hope they'll keep it open. We should nationalise British Steel. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

In a rare speech, (Blue) Labour peer Lord Glasman says: “If Scunthorpe could become the European leader in steel production, then I believe that we would have a proper Labour govt...” “If we could only hear that beautiful word 'nationalisation'...” Blue Labour

Ten years and an unfathomable amount of money to confirm that the sky is actually still blue. I hope we never, ever see a public policy debate succumb to such a poisonous mix of magical thinking, authoritarianism and cowardice ever again.

theguardian.com/law/live/2025/… “But we counsel against reading this judgement as a triumph of one or more groups in our society at the expense of another, it is not.” Yes it is. It’s a triumph of science and commonsense. Rejoice.

It was LGB Alliance, The Lesbian Project and Scottish Lesbians who defended the rights of homosexuals when it mattered. Not Stonewall.

To every politician, journalist, and celebrity who called women "bigots" for stating biological fact - #SupremeCourt has confirmed we were right. You owe women an apology, you did real damage. Hang your heads in shame, we won't forget. #AdultHumanFemale

The Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists won, with help from the lesbian feminists, loud mouthed mothers, genuine socialists, Christian conservatives and gay men. TERFs rule!

Dejan Kulusevski on Big Ange Postecoglou… Don’t ever tell me this Spurs squad ain’t fighting for this manager… the garbage some journalists have written about him and the players recently has been shameful.

The idea trans rights have been set back, because women’s rights have been affirmed, reveals precisely what was meant by trans rights in the first place.

I've had an Ocado account for years but will have to re-consider in the light of their misogynist treatment of Mumsnet I was brought up to respect women's boundaries and sex-based safe spaces and I don't want to support people who don't support women's rights.

If you were in any doubt trans activists are driven by misogyny and homophobia they vandalised the memorial to a Suffragette hero with an anti-gay slur.

Sensible and measured statement from Labour LGB, in marked contrast to the performative hysteria and rampant misogyny of those demonstrating yesterday. The Supreme Court judgement does not alter the position of any of the Equality Act's protected characteristics.
