@dss66 @rj_abel yep I agree- it was just he said British values!

@norma_er @rj_abel Human values ??!!

Ed Davey has urged Bridget Phillipson to withdraw EHRC guidance protecting women-only toilets and changing rooms—guidance based on the Supreme Court’s Equality Act ruling. Calling it incompatible with “British values”, he’s chosen a side. It isn’t women.

@SandPatterson @wishbone48 well she benefited from the theft! So she should be jointly liable.

My favourite moment in the car crash #bbclaurak interview was when Laura suggested Sturgeon should contribute to refunding donors. The snippy "What do you mean...?" was an unguarded honest response that revealed her entitled attitude.

@AgentP22 let’s face it , they all have the same personality!

Stephen Flynn telling voters to "bore off" because he wants a World Cup jolly while serving as an SNP minister is peak SNP arrogance. When they want your vote: "Scotland's voice." When you ask a question: "Bore off." Arrogance. Pure and simple.

Ed Davey has written to Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson demanding she WITHDRAW official EHRC guidance protecting female-only spaces in toilets and changing rooms. Let that land. The Equalities and Human Rights Commission — a statutory body — has produced legally grounded guidance telling employers and public bodies that biological men should not access women’s single-sex spaces. This is not opinion. This is not politics. This is the settled legal position following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on the meaning of “woman” under the Equality Act. And Ed Davey wants it gone. His stated reason? The guidance is not “compatible with long-standing British values.” British values. He used those words to argue AGAINST protecting women’s single-sex spaces. The same Liberal Democrats who lecture the country about tolerance, inclusion and human rights are now lobbying a Labour minister to tear up statutory guidance that protects every woman in Britain who walks into a changing room, a refuge or a hospital ward. This is not a fringe position within the Lib Dems. Their leader wrote the letter. The party has chosen its side. It is not the side of women. Repost if you think women’s single-sex spaces should be protected.

@joannaccherry @DodgyThumbs She’s so ‘me, me,me’ I’m starting to wonder if she is a narcissist!

Living in a luxury house in London and sipping champagne on the book festival circuit is about as far away from serving a prison sentence as I can imagine. It’s worth remembering that thanks to Nicola Sturgeon vulnerable women in Scottish prisons are banged up with violent men.

@Abouterf197543 @HalBeowa @BarbicanCentre disgusting! All to appease men with fetishes!

Find the Lady @BarbicanCentre Men’s ✓ Disabled ✓ Women’s… now “Gender Neutral” (sign slapped over her symbol) The lady vanishes! Men get 3 toilets. Women get none.

@ACSPARTAN1 The issue is that they are getting no punishment at all for their crimes - the victims are left going through hell and life is destroyed!

There are signs ⛔️⛔️⛔️ A paedophile groped a ten-year-old girl to satisfy his own thoughts Charles Durdle abused the girl, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, in Sussex. The 23-year-old had a fascination with the "taboo" but breached the trust of the girl's parents, a court heard. Teachers noticed how the girl had gone from being happy and sociable to withdrawn and upset. She eventually admitted to her mother what had been happening, and she is now "not the girl she once was". Durdle admitted his sick crimes and at Lewes Crown Court Her Honour Judge Janet Waddicor imposed a ten-month suspended sentence as the defendant is undergoing rehabilitation for sex offenders. Rowan Jenkins, prosecuting, said the multiple incidents of sexual touching took place between May to August 2019. He said Durdle's behaviour was a serious breach of trust. The girl's mother said: "I will never forget the haunting words that came from my daughter. It fills me with chills. "He has ripped our whole lives apart. "I am eaten up with guilt that as a mother I was not there for her during these horrific acts. "We feel trapped and want to wake up from this nightmare. We will all find it extremely hard to trust somebody. "My innocent child's life has changed from being happy to now being guarded and looking inward. She is not the girl she once was." Mr Jenkins said Durdle had denied having a wider sexual interest in children and shocked himself at how far he went to explore his "morbid curiosity" with the "taboo". Judge Waddicor said Durdle's behaviour was "truly shocking", in particular how he deceived those related to the girl. The judge said the pervert had "betrayed" the trust of the girl and her family, and said similar cases can often lead to girls not being believed which can cause rifts and further harm. "You are rightly disgusted by what you have done," the judge said, and said that because he has taken responsibility and confessed to his behaviour, he is capable of being rehabilitated. Durdle, of Queens Approach, Uckfield, was given a ten-month suspended sentence and was ordered to complete 30 rehabilitation sessions. He must also complete the Horizon sex offender programme, and will be on the sex offenders register tor ten years. The court also imposed a ten year sexual harm prevention order to restrict Durdle's access to children.

@EdwardHobden @Kalimeralynn Tough- our country , our laws! I hadn’t even realised that they were allowed to do so in UK and had exemption!

A lot of Sikhs online are saying that it is totally unacceptable for any British government to ban the kirpan, because it is absolutely essential for Sikhs. Yet, Denmark, Italy, France, & Belgium ban it. In Italy alone, there are c.200,000 Sikhs.

@peterstopcrime @caroldennis457 I can tell you that I would have done the same! A 17 year old knows exactly what he is doing!

Anonymous: Anonymous: This week, I was at a water park with my family when a teenager untied the top of my bikini from behind, as a "prank." I turned around and slapped him hard. I'm 32 years old. I was in the shallow pool with my daughter, trying to teach her how to swim, when I suddenly felt someone yank sharply on the strings of my swimsuit. Before I could even understand what was happening, the fabric came loose. I turned around and saw this boy, about 16 or 17 years old, standing there. He had a disgusting smirk on his face, holding the strings of my bikini in his hand, and laughing with his buddies like he'd just pulled off the prank of the year. I didn't even think. My hand hit his cheek before my brain could catch up. It was a really hard slap. His smirk vanished instantly. He stumbled back, both hands on his face, while his friends went dead silent. And then the yelling started. His parents appeared out of nowhere. His mother started screaming that I'd "assaulted a child." His father threatened to call the police. He called me a "hysterical woman" and said I had no right to hit a minor. The security guards and lifeguards rushed over. The boy's parents demanded I be arrested for assault and battery. They said they were going to press charges and called me a "violent woman" who had "no right" to touch their son. I told them to check the surveillance cameras. The angle that shows how he grabbed the top of my swimsuit. They should go question the witnesses: my husband, Julien, saw it; another mother saw it too. I told the parents clearly: if they wanted to press charges against me for the slap, I'd press charges against their son for sexual harassment. For stripping me in front of my daughter and complete strangers, and for touching me without my consent. We were all asked to leave the pool. I was sitting in the car, shaking and humiliated, clutching my top tightly closed against me, while my husband drove home in silence. Then he finally said: "Did you really have to hit him that hard? He's just a kid. You probably could've just yelled. Now we might end up with charges against us." Just a kid. A kid who thought it was funny to half-strip a woman in public. A kid whose parents have clearly taught him that a woman's body is a playground for "stupid jokes." Am I wrong for reacting with my hands instead of words when a stranger yanked on my clothes to expose me? And for refusing to apologize for defending my dignity in front of my daughter?

🚨NEW: We've just launched a speedy tool for YOU to reject digital ID checks for social media access The Government's new plans for social media restrictions may require every Briton to submit to intrusive ID checks. Tell your MP to oppose these plans⤵️ #emailMP" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/campaigns/save…

Anyone who says the stories about heightened tick populations are false, can get their butts down here and see what I see everyday. I used to do weekly tick checks. Now it's every 3 days. My dogs, dairy cows, barn cats, sheep. And me. Just yesterday I had 7. Heads need to roll. This is not nature doing what nature does. This is purposeful, and it's freaking evil. And for the people that feel an obligation to comment about using flea and tick protection, save your breath. I've used everything from Sorresto to NexGard. We spray, use powder, drops, and collars. We do apple cider vinegar, garlic, and oregano oil. These ticks are bioengineered and you cannot tell me any different. They are resistant to all known preventions. When I heard stories of boxes of ticks being dropped off I laughed. It sounded so stupid and tin foil hat. I'm sorry. I was wrong. I'm wondering if one didn't get dropped off nearby. I need to buy more tin foil.

@SBarrettBar @glenghostly 💯! Shocking!

We are being rinsed.

@ReformedMedia_ @wishbone48 wow another!

BREAKING 🚨: Allies of Andy Burnham have urged him to appoint Louise Haigh as chancellor if he becomes the next prime minister. Louise was convicted of fraud in 2013

@Councillorsuzie @KathyParr101 they have told so many lies they can never be trusted!

Oh how very clever. Tempt us with a ‘I’ll call a general election’ and everyone will vote for him in order to vote these idiots out. Then true to form they won’t do it! Don’t be fooled.

@OurPastHasGone @RosieDuffield1 I do have one. Xmas present at least 10 years ago. It’s lasted longer than any hairdryer I’ve ever had and it’s much quieter - why my ex partner bought it - he hated the noise of my old one every day! 🤣

@RosieDuffield1 I am more puzzled by the fact that anyone would pay that much for a hairdryer - I got one from Home Bargains for about a tenner

" ...not enough attention has been paid to his most extraordinary purchase of all: a £349.99 Dyson hairdryer. A curious choice. Mainly because, as photographs will attest, Mr Murrell’s head is completely bald..." telegraph.co.uk/gift/86d4fefb0…

@LeeHurstComic @RosieDuffield1 🤣😂🤣

@RosieDuffield1 Magnificently coiffured pubes though.

@jomickane so threats! Should he not be arrested? 🤬

Remember when the Manchester Muslim community demanded that the officers involved in the Manchester Airport incident were ALL arrested, suspended, and jailed....immediately OR ELSE they would go to plan B where we would see protests like we've never seen before 🤔

@jan_murray what I would call a sex pervert! I don’t want these men in toilets where young girls may be and neither would any normal women.

‘They just want the dignity of being confirmed in their sex … or their ‘adopted sex’, if you like.’ I wonder if this is the kind of person the BBC’s Nick Robinson had in mind when he made this comment during a recent BBC Radio 4 interview about the EHRC’s guidance on single-sex spaces. And I wonder whether he realises that, if people were entitled to have their ‘adopted sex’ recognised under equality law, women would be unable to exclude men like this from their changing rooms, toilets and even domestic violence refuges. I also wonder whether he would want that for his wife or daughter. Or feel it was ‘dignified.’

@AnnieHQ21 Because they get paid extra for getting people on statins.

What is it about GPs and statins? Can’t get a routine appointment for weeks but they chase relentlessly. In an otherwise totally healthy individual, a cholesterol score of 5.3 has triggered four text messages and three emails in the last two weeks? Why?
