Being trans in UK since 2024 election: -Puberty blocker ban made permanent -U18 HRT ban -Gender Recognition Certificate now meaningless -Trans Section 28 -Welsh ADULT surgery withdrawn -Transphobic language & hate normalised -Civil service toilet ban -Hospital ward ban -Hear it's "dignity & respect"

The NHS promises "privacy, dignity and safety" for all its patients in new guidance that directs hospitals not to respect trans people's identities. Also, somebody impersonating a trans organization in Texas sent fraudulent texts to Republicans. And, nobody trusts Republicans on trans issues.

I can't stand that Andy Burnham is tackling Bus noise when random acts of god, nuclear missiles, climate change and cancer still exists!!

Very sad about hearing about the passing of Andy Burnham's father, it really hurts losing family like that hopefully he gets a quiet few months.

I really don't want to take fucking ozempic for bipolar fuck off to the US health industry, one drug isn't the fix for everything I genuinely don't believe it.

Stopped taking my bipolar meds a month ago, I'm done with the crazy lottery of prescriptions. I'm the reincarnation of Jesus Christ ffs give me drugs that work or don't give me drugs at all...also fuck market stalls haha. #bipolarJesusScoffsDownHamSandwichesToday

NHS staff work under enormous pressure to do the impossible. They are striking to protect their profession and their patients — and I was proud to join them on the picket line outside St. Thomas’ Hospital this morning. Solidarity!

Nigel Farage could tell Paddington to toss off back to Peru and his gaggle of ham chompers would only be emboldened with their votes. The racism card is a badge of honour for him.

Absolutely insanity from a "labour" government. Out with Starmer

BREAKING: Peaceful protestors arrested outside the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool Yet more peaceful protesters are being arrested today and hauled from the streets by police - a scene which just a few months ago would have been shocking but is quickly becoming the norm... 🧵

Authoritarianism should be a labour slogan, it's a slippery slope with a never ending bottom. The UK parliament are all useless viruses feeding themselves on the good will of the British public.

I feel so out of touch and drained with the privacy violations the UK government is pushing on the public at the moment. There is literally nothing the British public can do apart from anxiously watching the nonsensical mental gymnastics of the labour party. If I was a labour MP I would resign.

Starmer is an absolute fucking joke of a leader, gifting Farage the win and burning whatever good will the labour government had. A change of leadership is needed.

UK politics is depressing, Starmer is bringing the ultra right wing into power and all alternatives are being shunned by the purity testing left. A constant reminder that it's an island with self absorbed dickheads desperately clinging on to their own personal investments.

The whole Rayner tax nonsense only exists to take northern voices out of power in Westminster. The level up strategy never really happened and London still acts as a fiefdom over the rest of the UK.

I’m almost nostalgic for the days when these shitweasels used to whine about not being able to talk about immigration without being called racist, or ‘waycist’ as one of them used to ‘joke’.

This post is unavailable.

There's always a wild amount of purity tests going on in the UK politics thread, it's always a fun car crash to watch 🍿. Scary for the future though, left wing MP steps on a fly and the apocalypse starts whilst right wing bile is being spouted on national broadcast license paid TV gets free reign.

The violent protests of the migrant hotels are bringing change in the labour government while the peaceful protests for human rights and Palestine are gaining very little pace. Really makes it look like kicking police vans and setting fire to buildings is the loudest form of democracy.
