@ASBOTeacher I fear many practitioners moan instead of improving their classroom relationships (which would make behaviour perfect). I help my staff to have truly individual relationships, unencumbered by me. Sure, I give the odd assembly, but on school corridors you won’t see me for dust.

@HelenWebberley As should respecting anyone. But to respect someone is not to allow them to cancel the fundamental rights of others.

Respecting trans people shouldn’t be seen as ‘supporting a cause.’ It should be baseline

@HelenWebberley People like Hillary Cass?

I still find it insane how people with zero medical training have such strong opinions on trans healthcare

@JeanHatchet @SalmenaK A man pretending to be a woman does not deserve ridicule.

In today’s dark times what we all need is a man pretending to be a woman, falling on his ass and losing his wig in Macdonalds. I’m happy with that. The only thing you can legitimately argue with is that it *might* not be a Macdonalds.

Walker Smith, 54, who has worked as a store assistant at Waitrose for the past 17 years, has been fired for trying to stop a shoplifter. This is the damning series of events that took place at Waitrose’s Clapham Junction branch: a customer alerted Smith to a thief filling a bag with Lindt chocolate eggs (£13 a pop). ✍️ Ameer Kotecha Article | spectator.com/article/this-i…

The sacking of a Waitrose worker for tackling a shoplifter is insane. In mad modern Britain it’s riskier to stop a criminal than to be a criminal. Our cowardly elites have given a green light to crime. It’s a recipe for social chaos, says Brendan O’Neill buff.ly/lylensH

Waitrose have literally released the most stupid statement ever @waitrose basically saying shoplift what you like - no body will stop you - fill your boots…. Staff won’t stop you….Absolutely mental, can’t believe what I’ve just read.

This is Walker Smith He has worked in Waitrose for 17 years Now he's been SACKED from his job Why? Because he tried to stop a thief stealing Easter Eggs Walker Smith did absolutely nothing wrong and @waitrose should be completely ashamed of themselves

🚨WAITROSE DOUBLES DOWN ON SACKED WORKER What is wrong with you @waitrose ? Waitrose have released a statement CONFIRMING they believe they think they were RIGHT to sack Walker Smith for trying to stop a shoplifter WAITROSE STATEMENT IN COMMENTS 👇

Walker T Smith, 54, had 17 years unblemished experience with @waitrose, & working in Clapham Junction. He stopped to shoplifter from stealing Easter eggs. Instead of being thanked he was sacked.

Some basic principles of humanity have eluded Waitrose here. A pity that they hadn’t remembered the words of the Duke, from Shakespeare’ Measure for Measure (Act 1 Sc1): “Your scope is as mine own, So to enforce the quality of the (rules) As to your soul seems good”.

This is a symbol of what is wrong with soft-on-crime Britain. A veteran Waitrose worker has been sacked after tackling a shoplifter who was trying to steal luxury Easter eggs. Britain puts shoplifters ahead of the decent, law-abiding majority. Waitrose should be ashamed.

SACKED after 17 years… for stopping a thief. A Waitrose worker in Clapham Junction has lost his job after intervening to stop someone stealing Easter eggs. Walker Smith, 54, had given 17 years of service only to be shown the door for trying to do the right thing. No warning. No loyalty. Just gone. What message does that send to staff and to every other would be shoplifter wanting an easy target. Do your job… but don’t actually protect the business. Waitrose have ABSOLUTELY no loyalty to their staff they are quite happy to dispense of Loyal partners like yesterdays rubbish.

@Samstricko181 Before checking the SEN profile, sir, to see if there are any exceptions 👍.

Often with behaviour a child simply needs to be told no. They need clear boundaries.

@KirstiMiller30 You ARE allowed to play the game. The first step is to stop lying.

My sporting career might be over, but I promise every single trans & intersex child that loves sports my fight will continue until we are all allowed to play the game. I SEE, YOU, I HEAR YOU, I FEEL YOU~ I ❤️ YOU, YOU ARE NOT ALONE~ I PROMISE 🏳️‍⚧️⚧️🌈💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛

@ThomasWillett9 Yes because there is no more danger posed to a female boxer being pitted against a bearded and muscular six-footer as there is to a male boxer being told he’ll face woman with less than half his strength. Both exactly the same. Consistency, as you say. 👍

The new Olympic rule bans only trans women from women’s events; trans men aren’t mentioned at all. If this were truly about fairness and safety, it would apply consistently. Targeting one specific group raises serious questions about the real motive.

@NadiaWhittomeMP So how do we widen the definition of women? I know! Let’s define women by social roles (aka regressive sexist stereotypes). Yes, that’s really progressive. (Or alternatively, just bin the stereotypes, define women by biology and affirm that biology doesn’t define their roles).

Efforts to narrow the definition of womanhood, police people’s gender expression, and reduce people to their biology don't protect women - they harm us. Attacks on trans rights should never be done in our name. We must stand in solidarity with our trans siblings.

@BenGrahamUK It’s certainly inclusive of men in women’s loos and changing areas (and sports). You don’t mind, do you gals?

This rainbow junction in Hounslow cost £48,174 of public money. Some will say it promotes inclusion. Others will question the cost. Where do you stand?

@terrychristian @JohnWilkinspsyc Absolutely sir. It’s frightful that these plebs should have the temerity to engage with the political process without guidance from nice posh people who understand the benefits of mass immigration (lots of people to clean their toilets). 👍

Remember - this is every brexit voter still doubling down on being moronic and why we should never ever have referendums in the UK that allow spivs to con the intellectually vulnerable .

@owenjonesjourno Yes, and get back to condemning the crimes of Israel and ignoring the crimes of any other despotic regime.

Stop conflating Jewish people and the crimes of Israel. And stop this desperate smearing of the Green Party.

@JaneSymons1 List of people (fictional or real) who’d make better prime ministers. I’ll start.

Absolutely not
