Tomorrow Wes Streeting will remove trans minors ability to access, and doctors to prescribe, cross-sex hormones.
Try as it might Labour will never eradicate trans people. They cannot, and should not, change who they are. All Labour will do is make trans lives harder - with more harm and more death.

What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator.
The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be.
Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👏

✨Yesterday was incredible ✨
100 people and 💩 14 giant inflatable poos 💩right in the heart of Environment Secretary Emma Reynolds' constituency

Take 2 mins to email Ofwat now: vist.ly/4ttyp
Picture of Hugh Grant, with a quote of his from X: "Dirty Business on Channel 4. Brilliantly made, devastating. Water must be nationalised now. The owners of the private water companies jailed."
Hang it in the The Louvre! *
Hugh Grant is right - the privatisation of water is a scam, and it's a Very English Scandal that no-one has been brought to justice for the destruction of our rivers and seas.
We need public ownership, and oversight, now.

As a friend of mine put it, “it’s another bold move towards total customer alienation”.
We are indeed living through the golden age of bliddy pointless surveys
I think ‘Bin’ is the right answer.
And in the section asking “based on your experience, would you recommend Evri to your friends on a scale of 1-10” I always put 0, as I value my friends.
Keep calm and carry on - poster from WW2
Time to dig this out.
Well, the reason’s obvious: that’s a RH drive car which would be very confusing for UK customers.
Dirty Business has made it crystal clear - it's just UNACCEPTABLE for our water to be run for profit for shareholders and creditors
In public ownership, Thames Water could be accountable to households, workers, anti sewage groups, local councillors 👇

🤮 Channel 4's 'Dirty Business' exposed how filthy and corrupt privatised water is.
🤯 Yet Ofwat still hasn't rejected the Thames Water creditors' request to pollute illegally until 2040 ?!?!

The public are finally waking up to the monstrous reality of Surrey
Last September we launched our political party scorecard: an at-a-glance guide to the most prominent parties' position on public ownership.
We've just updated the scorecard - and have downgraded Reform's rating.
Find out why:
If you're outraged about sewage pollution, channel it #DirtyBusiness
Tell Ofwat to say no to 14 years of illegal sewage that would set a NEW PRECEDENT for the whole of England

Channel 4’s Dirty Business is a clarion call to nationalise the water industry
Just seen the final episode of #dirtybusiness on C4 streaming. If you’re watching it live at 9 be warned. It will make you incandescent with rage. And with my @weownit.org.uk hat on, I urge you to check our website for details of the gobsmacking corruption of the water industry exposed in the show.
My office at The Barbican used to look a bit like that. But that was the 90s, so smaller and more scuzzy.
You may have just revealed the quintessence of what recording an album in a studio is like. Time is reduced to the interval between takes and the hours sat on low faux-leather sofas, accompanied by the lingering aroma of rapidly cooling pizzas.
