All too rare an example of pedestrianisation in central London. It’s glorious.

@sharrond62 I support you and the cause Sharron but I dislike the constantly inference that somehow "men" are the problem. These few people might biologically be male, but they do not represent the overwhelming majority of decent blokes out there. Please be sensitive to misandry.

If sex doesn’t mean biological sex then women & girls are no longer protected under sex discrimination law. The decades of fighting by past generations, who suffered to get injustices recognised, is being eroded by a small groups of aggressive, narcissistic, entitled men

Lucille Ball, doing a Q&A with UCLA theater students for America Alive! in 1978, repeatedly ordered co-host David Sheehan to stop touching female students.
She knew the girls felt powerless to speak up, so she used her power to speak up for them. Queen.

And @HumzaYousaf puts his hands on the female protestor, because of course he does. Would he stroke the arm of a male heckler? Would he physically take hold of him? Or would he respect a fellow man's personal space and physical boundaries when trying to reassert his authority?

🗣️“Folks, let’s not boo.” The moment a heckler disrupts Humza Yousaf’s flagship independence speech to SNP members. The First Minister leaves the stage to try and engage with protester.

Only sadness, and anger, after another deadly tragedy at sea in the Mediterranean.
May the victims rest in peace.
May the survivors find consolation and care.
May governments cooperate to increase safe pathways and work together on collective solutions to address these flows.

It is heart-breaking. 41 bodies recovered & fears that hundreds more may be missing in a shipwreck off Pylos, Greece. Such tragic deaths at sea are avoidable. We need more safe pathways for people forced to flee. They should not be left with impossible life-threatening choices.

Charlotte Owen has gone from parliamentary intern to Baroness in 6 years, a record? 🤨 (incidentally we were at uni together and no one remembers her showing any great prowess for legislative scrutiny)

This is absurd and worrying.

Word of the day is ‘mumpsimuses’ (16th century): those who insist they are right and apportion blame to others without looking at themselves.
