The absolute state of this. 😡😡

"NHS staff should be banned from wearing pro-Palestinian badges", recommends a report by the #UKgov's antisemitism extremist, Lord Mann.

A Jewish A&E doctor in England told the BBC she had "felt uncomfortable" seeing colleagues wearing pro-Palestinian badges. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn0plkd4wdno

Because god forbid that a racist might knowingly encounter a supporter of the people who are being ethnically cleansed & genocided by her co-religionists. 😡 😡

"We are deeply concerned about the potentially devastating repercussions of this proposal on #trans patients’ access to #healthcare, the ability of trans healthcare staff to conduct their everyday duties, and the #NHS’s ability to protect the rights and dignity of their trans patients and staff", say the #BritishMedicalAssociation #BMA.

But Kaz on Facebook read in #DailyMail that it's all "gender ideology", and intersex doesn't exist. So #UKgov is backing Kaz.

1918: Ireland elects a majority of Sinn Féin MPs, 73/105, pledged to set up an independent parliament. Westminster ignores Dáil Éireann, then bans it.

2026: #Scotland elects yet another majority of pro-indy MSPs, who vote by 72—55 for a 2nd #indyref. Just as they promised. Within hours, an anonymous Downing Street spokesman says "no". A faceless no.

After 108 years, #UKgov still doesn't get this democracy thing.

Can anyone go to London SW1 with a large #cluebat?

This #RejoinEU petition now has almost 97,000 signatures, very close to the trigger for a #UKParl debate. With (slightly) more positive noises from #UKGov recently, this is hopefully worth signing, to show the continuing growing recognition that #BrexitBreaksBritain and that we want to fix it! Please sign (and share/repost the details)!

“Petition: Apply to Rejoin the EU as soon as possible to increase growth in the UK”

Here's @MartinLewis having a justified pop at how bad the UK Government is at addressing frauds from scam adverts on social media.
