Now they recognise it? Now, when over 30% of deaths in this #GazaGenocide have been children? Now, when there is almost nothing left to recognise?
We need a formal recognition from @ukgovofficial of Israel’s #genocide and a promise to stop arms deals with Netanyahu.
If Farage isn’t forced to resign over 17 counts of financial misconduct, the UK Government is not doing its job.
We know what happens when corruption is normalised. He needs to go.
Nigel Farage failed to declare ‘£380,000 external earnings’ on time https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/nigel-farage-standards-breaches-investigation-parliament-reform-b2904518.html
Duolingo, are you OK? Human legs and a wig on an owl? And… are those eyelashes… and a garter?
This looks like what happens when a bunch of dudes sitting in a boardroom decide they need to ‘include women’. 😱🤯😬
Just remembering that time I was in a cafe in The Netherlands and an old man walked in, dressed in black and with one of those black leather doctor bags from days of yore.
Muttering obscenities, which my dutch friends kindly translated for me (& they were pretty specific), he opened the bag and proceeded to hand small bars of soap and a glare to all the women, then left.

Yet again, the problem is not trans people or immigrants or women wanting bodily autonomy. It’s mostly white men. It’s billionaires. It’s sociopaths.

A double helping of #FeministFringe at #EdBookFest tonight, with Deborah Frances White and Laura Bates.
Both events examined the risks for women and children in navigating poorly-regulated online social spaces and highlighted the failures of both providers to make their products safe and governments to legislate for better standards.
Social media fosters extremism, making the world less safe so that a few billionaires can get richer.
We all deserve better than this.
So this song from the 80s just popped into my mind for the first time in a few decades. Still love the piano in it 💖🎶🎹
