Am I right that nasal vaccines are available now?

Yes, and given previous medical experimentation on black people, their concerns were valid and justified.

Yes. I thought the article raised some excellent points, especially around electronic record keeping. Pop up clinics seem like a good idea too.

I agree with you.

However the article raises good points about the NHS' archaic & chaotic infrastructure / processes.

I like the idea of the drop in clinics at nurseries etc. The system does sound chaotic.

What? No offence to you, but surely video is *more* reliable than an eye witness?

There's a quote which feels grimly paralleled here.

"- in practice the standard for what constitutes rape is not set at the level of experience of women's violation but just above the level of coercion acceptable to men."
- Judith Lewis Herman

⚠️ PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING: We believe NHS England and DHSC policy on transgender healthcare shows signs of ideological capture by the gender critical movement. Current decisions risk serious harm to trans people and undermine evidence-based care.

Yeah, much like we would also object to feeding orphans into an orphan crushing machine, even if it resulted in cheaper energy bills.

Some things should be off limits.

I just don't trust Labour with this. It's a pretext to lock up peaceful protestors.

11.03.2026 00:25 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Correct on all points. I also think it will be abused, particularly when it comes to peaceful protest.

Steve, are you aware that judges get it wrong? That they hold personal prejudices? That they tend to be socially conservative?

Three people involved in drafting the EA10 say the Supreme Court's interpretation was categorically wrong.

I'm not trans but as a cis woman I can empathise.

Do you think it's acceptable to take away a minority's human rights without even allowing them to represent themselves?

I don't.

The Supreme Court decided to alter the Equality Act to remove trans people's rights based on fraudulent testimony from four anti trans groups.

No pro LGBTQ groups or trans people were allowed to submit evidence or be heard.

They claimed it was 'clarifying' the law.

Maybe I should get a trampoline IRL. πŸ˜†

Lol - I found it kinda soothing. Not sure why but I always found it more immersive than Skyrim.

I have a similar reaction when influencers refer to 'trauma' casually or trivialise it. Same with anxiety or depression.

I think it's driven by politicians who want an excuse to cut SEND provision, disability benefits and adult ADHD services without looking like complete monsters.

Haha do you use Stay Focused as well?

We also shouldn't be wrongfully imprisoning people just because it's quicker and easier.

I admire your faith in the justice system, but I don't share it.

I loved that mechanic in older games like Fable 2 & Oblivion.
Want to be muscular and thin? Eat tofu and work as a blacksmith.
You want more stamina? Better walk a lot, and jump up and down while you're at it.

Yep. There's a reason why every believable thriller protag is ex military and why protest groups teach people to stay calm when grabbed. Under threat, humans are stupid flailing animals 😁

The cat brushed against me when I was playing Phasmaphobia and I literally screamed.

I know it's conspiracist, but the Labour 'Pride in Place' campaign feels like a pretty deliberate attempt to hijack the term away from LGBTQ celebration.

Is there a reason that not one Labour MP has spoken up about MP Hannah Spencer being attacked by gender critical activists on International Women's Day?

10.03.2026 21:41 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

So they're not going to be reduced. Great.

If it costs us juries, they aren't worth having.

10.03.2026 21:38 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Still waiting for even one Labour MP to condemn the fact that gender critical activists attacked MP Hannah Spencer on International Women's Day.
