Rates have fallen since 2023, are comparable with other european countries and less than in north america
The overwhelming majority of us don’t care what gender you are. The odds that any trans person from overseas visiting our ‘hateful little island’ actually facing violence is negligible.
Ok, please show me this evidence that demonstrates how many trans visitors to the UK are victims of violence, or that these are vastly greater than any other group of visitor to Britain.
And you don’t know anything about me, my sexuality or my personal politics.
When you assume…
The overwhelmingly vast majority of british people literally could not give a shit what your gender is. We. Do. Not. Care.
The idea you’re unsafe coming to Britain is as ridiculous as me being unsafe wherever you’re from.
Oh don’t be so bloody ridiculous. The likelihood of anything happening to you on a british street because you’re trans is close to zero.
I’m more like to be a victim of violence on a british street than you are.

Aww grok still won’t talk to me.
You do know that there aren’t actually packs of gender critical feminists hunting down anyone claiming to identify as a different gender in the UK.
You’d be as safe here as I would be in Canada.
We used to be able to go on a bike ride to the next county 15 miles away, using the main roads, without an adult, and no one would care.
Yeah… you’re perfectly safe travelling to the UK.
If I were to ever go to one of the big US GTs I’d so go through customs wearing a T shirt saying “Death to the False Emperor”
I’d give a 50% chance it opens and a 50% chance GW has to withdraw from the US when they declare war on Europe by invading Greenland.
And I’m only half joking.
Looks like Grok is happy to talk to me about Warhammer 40k army lists, but not about creating pornographic deepfakes of children
I increasingly hate the iphone keyboard.
Incidentially the UK is increasingly an outlier compared to our peers with relatively few actively pro natalist policies (although of course raising access to free or state sponsored childcare would be such a policy)
I’ve had thought Reform would be well up for a clearly pro natalist policy.
Or are they like a all far right parties - they want (white) women to have more kids. But don’t gibe a shit about them once they are born.
If that happens all US military bases in previously allied countries would immediately cease to be defensive assets and become security threats - so States should immediately forcibly close them, seize all equipment and deport all US military personnel.

So we knew the US had decided it no longer wants to be a maritime and mercantile empire based on military alliances and global free trade.
Now we know its decided it wants to be a 19th century style continental, colonial power.
It won’t end well for anyone.
BBC Scotland features an article on our work with people with dementia to develop teaching for nursing students, led by people living with dementia.
I lecture nursing students about my dementia - I want to show it can happen to anyone www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
We found similar findings from Scittish projects making direct payments to care experienced young people and people living with dementia in Scotland.
Funnily enough both groups can and ro make excellent decisions about their needs and how the money can help them meet them.
Agreed. Saw some similar work and findings around care experienced young people and people living with dementia in Scotland. Funnily enough both groups can and do make excellent decisions about what their needs are and how the money can help them.
1. Sat across a train carriage from Leslie Grantham.
2. Dickie Bird crashed my brother’s engagement dinner.
3. Gave a lecture to the King and Queen of Sweden.

USA is generally okay. While well below replacement its fertility rate is a lot higher then most other advanced countries. They also have a big rebound/echo generation in the millennials. They dont face a Korea/China scenario until the end of this century - so they have time to turn things around.
Yep. Although govts could make them - they’d have to find some way to effectively increase taxes on automation to cover the loss of employees income taxes when we all lose our jobs.
Problem with the argument that AI and robots will fix everything forget that its not just about production.
Robots and AI don’t consume. And if there’s not enough people (locally or globally) to buy all the stuff you make because they wee never born, it becomes really hard for an economy to grow.
But yes hard agree China, Russia, italy and Germany are all looking at demographic collapse in the next 10-20 years
Japan is now in a better place than the other countries listed here. It saw it coming and put policies in place to alleviate it. Its fertility rates are now positively high compared to its neighbours - Korea and China.
But its still nowhere near replacement levels. No ones achieved that.
