People are being very weird about this, it genuinely sucks that you now need to sign up for a loyalty scheme at every supermarket you visit in order to get realistic prices, and that you need a bespoke phone app to do it

Comments on this demonstrating that you can basically no longer talk about men and violence, or any issue that affects women, without having the conversation completely derailed by TERFs
My heart breaks for Carol, Hannah and Louise.
A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK. They’re not a statistic, but people whose lives and dreams were cruelly stolen from them.
Male violence and misogyny are endemic. We demand a world where women are safe and free.

The reason I want the Tories out is because I think Tory policies and ideology are bad and harmful and need to be actively worked against, so I'd prefer it if Labour didn't adopt them. Are people aware that politics has actual material consequences or is it just a game
I’ve said this before: the Starmer strategy has always seemed to me to be declaring his party is now basically Labour and the Tories combined, with the actual Tories being UKIP. Downsides: this pisses people off on the left. Upsides: 45% of the country votes for you.
