@janepotter1 @BBCiPlayer I’d say yes. And I’m not particularly into football. I am a fan of great acting and impressive leadership, and you’ll see both here IMO.

Haven't watched #DearEngland yet but catching it on iPlayer catch-up this week Joseph Fiennes as Southgate looks brilliant in the trailer. Is it worth the hype? No spoilers please! ⚽@BBCiPlayer #GarethSouthgate #BBCOne"

@DeboraSinger1 @AmnestyUK @SexMattersOrg @Transgendertrd @FrancesShipsey @AmnestyNews @chiaracapraro @AllianceLGB @WRNBarnet @ruthdraper17 Admiration from me. It must be heartbreaking to give so much time and energy to an organisation/cause only to see it transform so painfully.

Today I resigned from @AmnestyUK after 40years. As a women's rights specialist I could no longer condone their failure to balance women's rights with trans rights @SexMattersOrg @Transgendertrd @FrancesShipsey @amnestynews @chiaracapraro @AllianceLGB @WRNBarnet @ruthdraper17

@OldRoberts953 I could be wrong, but I can foresee a defence based on mental health. Murrell looks like he has a shopping addiction. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compulsiv…

They are indeed the gayest items I have ever seen, and I’ve seen some gay items in my time.

@joshxhowie @GBNEWS @MForstater May I recommend a linen suit?

A boiling Bank Holiday weekend is the best time to settle down with a beer or g&t and watch some Free Speech Nation @GBNEWS tonight 7pm! ⭐️The government has finally published the EHRC guidance- are women’s rights now safe? Legend @MForstater is here to reveal what’s right and what’s wrong. ⭐️Writer @sophielouisecc is taking an internship programme to court for being racist. Against white people. ⭐️The @novaexhibition has now come to the UK, and we meet the American pro-Palestinian activist whose life was forever changed after she saw it. ⭐️@SVPhillimore is suing the GLP after a threat to the freedom of speech for all regulated professionals. ⭐️@MaximumCities and @_ConnieShaw discuss why young people seem to be pushing back against progressive ideology, and how to help them. ⭐️And the councillor fighting his own council from censure after daring to question the implications of local housing for hundreds of Afghan men. ⭐️Plus @Nico_DeSanto and @CressidaWetton talk dinner lady indoctrination and other gems from our live audience. I’m not putting on my suit until I absolutely have to!

@suladoyle I should say that I think Rory is a good man. I met him on a couple of occasions. I just think, like a lot of good people, he has not delved into the subject. I used to be fully onboard the "born in the wrong body" belief. Then I learned stuff that changed my view.

@suladoyle I am not even sure he knows what autogynephilia is. I have actually just asked him (and Campbell) their views on it and other aspects of this issue on X. I suspect there will be no reply.

Omg Rory Stewart loftily explaining which rights women should be prepared to give up. It has never crossed his mind that women saying no is sufficient. And he has obviously never considered autogynephilia, and why men who say they are women won’t accept a third space.

@JohnCleese And yet Banksy can put his political statue sneering at flags up and it gets to stay. Go figure.

No, it's just that he can't allow anything which upsets Muslims because those are the only votes he's going to get

@For_Film_Fans Another example of the genius of composer John Barry.

Remembering ROGER MOORE — who left us 7yrs ago today, aged 89. THE PERSUADERS! (1971-72)

@RoseElla1234 Ever seen the original? youtube.com/watch?v=IQdcic…

This "leg test" scene still makes audiences laugh out loud nearly 40 years later... 😂 🎬 Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988)

@RestIsPolitics I'd be interested in your views on The Cass Report, Stonewall's influence on BBC, NHS and other institutions, social contagion, AGP etc.

Rory Stewart weighs in on the UK Supreme Court's landmark gender ruling 🏛️

@RestIsPolitics Please invite Helen Joyce, Maya Forstater, Julie Bindel, Kathleen Stock onto your podcast. I know you are in favour of discussion, right?

@RestIsPolitics There are many people who would call themselves trans who would also not say they were "born in the wrong body" or say they are a sex they were not born into. If you had actually fully followed this story you'd know that. This use of "community" is really not at all helpful.

@PeterTatchell Israel has no civil marriage at all; all marriages are handled by religious authorities (Jewish, Muslim, Christian, etc.), and none of those institutions in Israel perform same-sex marriages. However, Israel does recognize same-sex marriages performed abroad.

Israel has spent millions marketing Tel Aviv as the gay capital of the Middle East Yet same-sex marriage remains illegal In Israel & LGBT+ Palestinians are often refused asylum Using LGBTs to pinkwash Israel's genocide against Palestinians is shameful mambaonline.com/2026/05/21/opi…

@afneil The way the evolution (actually, IMO, devolution) of male politicians’ attire is going, it won’t be long before they are campaigning in their jammies.

Except that it purports to claim that the area (Makerfield) has been a victim of 40 years of Thatcherism (that’s what Burnham seems to be running against, which means he’s also running against the Blair-Brown government, of which he was a part). Yet the backdrop to his wandering shows rows of neat, well-kept, substantial semi-detached homes, with plenty new cars in the driveways and a vibrant high street, despite all the road works improving it. Oh yes and a state school so good he sent his kids to it. Put simply — the pictures clash with his words of victimhood and deprivation.

@belfastDGM @OldRoberts953 The way the evolution (actually, IMO, devolution) of male politicians’ attire is going, it won’t be long before they are campaigning in their jammies.

I actually think he’s done what we all said would be impossible. He’s even less likeable than Starmer.

@joshxhowie Josh, for what it’s worth I’d say the thicker black rims.

New glasses time. Any preferences?

@joshxhowie @OurFightUk @StopTheHate_UK I’d love to be there, but sadly I’m away with work. Have a great night!

Excited to be with these fantastic comedians, having a laugh and raising money for @OurFightUk @StopTheHate_UK and the ambulances. Let’s sell the theatre out!

@RosieDuffield1 @BettsCaro @CrunchAlias This might help him understand the difference. He’s clearly neither. youtu.be/THNPmhBl-8I?si…

@BettsCaro @CrunchAlias Hmm. Maybe those surgeons of...rockets...🤷🏼‍♀️ can spot the difference between men and women as well as...boy and girl...rockets....? Or something? 🤷🏼‍♀️

“a rocket surgeon” 🤣 Jonathon’s so tetchy at the moment he’s completely lost control of his mixed metaphors

@PeterTatchell You really think stupid flags, denial of biological facts, marching in kinky gear is going to improve gay rights in Russia, Afghanistan or Iran? Actually, if anything it does the reverse.

Pride should be more than a party From Russia branding LGBT+ people “extremists” to anti-queer laws spreading globally Pride has to put LGBT+ human rights centre stage & show solidarity with LGBTs persecuted by homophobic regimes Pride means resistance commentcentral.co.uk/why-pride-stil…

@joshxhowie I had no idea he had his own polling company.

I hope their idiocy bites every politician in the arse who went along with the madness.
