Trump wants to terminate the Constitution, but I say he should be forced to carry it to term.

#UK folks, there's a petition to keep protection of transgender people in the equality act.

It's pretty scary being trans in this country at the moment, and we could use your help to protect our rights.

Feel free to share broadly/openly with others. Steal, boost, whatever. Let's get 100k signatures, please.

Petition: Commit to not amending the Equality Act's definition of sex

It has been reported that the Government may amend the Equality Act to "make it clear that sex means biological sex rather than gender." The Government has previously committed to not remove legal protections for trans people, an already marginalised group, but this change would do so.

The masks from Tory peer Michelle Mone's Β£290m PPE deal cost the taxpayer 38.5p per unit.
The same masks from alt. suppliers cost 14.5p
But Tories bought 46m of Mone's via Gove's VIP lane.
Most of the PPE she was responsible for supplying was unusable.
Yet she made Β£29m on the deal and bought herself a Β£10m yacht.
This is gross profiteering at the UK tax payers expense, at a time of crisis, and she must be prosecuted.
It's true what they say, Tories are filth

Michelle Mone: masks from firm linked to Tory peer cost double

Face masks supplied by a PPE firm linked to Baroness Mone, the Tory peer, were bought by the Department of Health for more than twice as much as identical ones

I still see posts with people wanting no politics. So I will leave a reminder:

1. Politics = how we make decisions about living together in society.

2. Not participating in politics = endorsing the status quo.

3. Refusing to participate in politics is a privilege. It is also a decision to abandon those in a more vulnerable position.

You might want to abstain and that's fine.
But someone has to combat injustice, racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism and anti-LGBTQ hate.

You expect me to believe that #Wednesday Addams was actually struggling to choose between two of the most boring white boys to cross her path? Rest of the show was fun, though. But our queen deserves SO much better.

Also, did she straight up kill a bitch at the end??
