Michael Phelps is literally referred to as a freak of nature because of his disproportionate wingspan, double jointed ankles, lung capacity twice that of an average human, body that produces half the lactic acid of a typical athlete, and he is rightly celebrated for being the greatest male swimmer in history. Meanwhile, female athletes with genetic differences are legally discriminated against and harassed to no end. This is not about “protecting women in sports” - this is about protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is.

A lady is singing to a small baby trying to get them to sleep whilst we’re waiting for everyone to board the plane, and whilst the nursery rhyme might not be working on the baby, my boyfriend is fast asleep from it

Excited for this research to be out! We looked at the source reservoir controls on the size, frequency and composition of large-scale eruptions 😊🌋

Prosecutors in Brianna's trial said that her murder was "in part motivated by hostility... because she was transgender". Rishi Sunak's "joke" is the exact kind of remark that fans that hostility
ITVPolitics@ITVNewsPolitics

Rishi Sunak attempts to attack Sir Keir Starmer over how Labour 'defines a woman' as the mum of Brianna Ghey, a trans teenager who was murdered, was sat in the Commons listening to prime minister's questions A shocked Sir Keir replies: 'Of all the weeks to say that... Shame'

Let's make it clear: living on the streets is not a ‘lifestyle choice’ - it is a sign of failed government policy. No one should be punished for being homeless. Criminalising people for sleeping in tents, and making it an offence for charities to help them, is unacceptable.
Suella Braverman@SuellaBraverman

The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4

@doc_sabine There’s definitely more nuisance to this situation then I can put in a tweet, but I feel everyone should have a chance at anything they want. So we shouldn’t start shutting down this routes, when there are no viable options out there.

@doc_sabine Definitely not saying uni is for everyone and agree we need more routes for people to be able to do whatever they would like. My partner failed his A Levels and was able to find one of the few routes left open for him to train as a teacher, 8 years after school.

Let people go to uni if they want to. You don’t know where it will lead them to. I got on to one of the uni courses offering the lowest entry requirements, because I wasn’t great at school. I’ve ended up getting a PhD from Imperial College. Stop keeping people in invisible lanes.

UNIVERSITY FOR ALL? I strongly believe that pushing our young people to go to University is a mistake. It’s bad for them and it’s bad for the country. Let me explain why. (This is a long thread. No apologies!) 🧵1/14

The maths department at Coventry University, where I did my undergrad 10 years ago, gave me the best education and chances at doing whatever I wanted to at life. I will forever support the universities who offer lower entry grades to support any person to go to uni.
