On International Womenβs Day a reminder that my Alice had a mother and a sister and grannies, aunts, girl friends and girl cousins.
They all loved her as a woman.
When the transphobes say they speak for all women and are protecting women and girls, they are wrong.

(also can't help but notice the cassandra metaphor in the uk case!)
A 12-year old cyclist is in hospital after being struck by a hit-and-run driver on Sandy Lane West, between Blackbird Leys and Littlemore. Thames Valley Police are appealing for witnesses or dashcam footage of the collision, which involved a red car yesterday around 3.25pm.
Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

I do believe this is the softest photo I have ever seen.
Lordy we are madly car obsessed in this country .. it's like an addiction and we know what people will do when they're hooked on drugs for example.
I have experienced what people can and will do in cars and it ain't pretty and it kills.
This is why I write so much about pavement parking
The Green Party wishes a happy and colourful Holi to everyone celebrating in the UK and around the world.

Turns out lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services is really popular.
This is just the beginning - people are seeing through the attacks and demanding something better.
And we're making hope normal again - together.

Really concerned to hear the Defence Secretary refuse to rule out UK's involvement in future strikes on Iran.
Iraq lessons must be learned.
Further escalation in the Middle East makes us all less safe.
Starmer must rule out UK involvement immediately.

Very efficient work by you, @tortoise46.bsky.social and the frogs! Impressive! Happy spring!
A photo of my pond, with various water plants, and a huge clump of frogspawn on top.
JOY!
So many thanks to @tortoise46.bsky.social for the gift of plants and helping get my pond tadpole ready.
And a bit of minxing!

Three pairs of mating frogs are sitting amongst a mass of frogspawn. They're surrounded by green aquatic plants and a few brown dead stems.
πΈ We have frogspawn at last! πΈ
And what looks like a frog free-for-all!

Two people smiling. National press got hold of my number and tried to get me to dish the dirt and all I could say was what an incredible human being he has been and what he continues to be
Amused how many friends & old colleagues (actors, waiters, night club staff) keep getting in touch to say press keep phoning them or turning up at their door for stories.
They can't stand the growth of our movement - lower bills & take on power & wealth.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.
We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

I love Blackthorn blossom! So delicate. And where the Brown Hairstreak butterfly lays its eggs so it can't be bad!
