Mr. Bedtime @InternetHippo ... I find the persistence of the idea that stuff that happens over the internet somehow ‘doesn’t count’ very interesting.

Okay so my hot take here is that if you want to replace nuclear with renewables there probably is going to be an intermediary step when you rely on fossil fuel generation, due to how the different technologies operate. I understand the temptation to act like the German Greens haven’t noticed there’s been a ramp up in coal generation since the nuclear has been ramped down, but they’re obviously planning on replacing that too.

When are children even showering at school, I don't think I ever did that Do schools have big communal showers that everyone uses together? Is this a normal part of childhood I missed, or are have they started with the premise of trans exclusion and are trying to invent scenarios where it matters.

This is a fun trick, gender identity is an observable psychological phenomenon, but it’s painted as if it’s some kind of metaphysical belief because it’s intangible. ‘I don’t believe in gender identity’ means ‘I don’t believe that humans have an internal sense of themselves that can include the idea of being male or female’ which is an absurd thing to be pretending to believe.

Just a quick reminder that the official stated position of the UK Government right up until the GRR bill was passed was that it did not create cross-border issues. Anyone who says the bill was 'obviously' outside of Holyrood's competence (something the UK Government itself is not claiming) or that it was 'obvious' the UK Government would have to block it, is lying.

We should be clear that Rosie Duffield wants the parents of trans kids to subject them to abuse until they act cis. She (and the rest of them) aren't unaware that a trans (or otherwise LGBT) kid, if forcibly outed to their parents, is at greater risk of abuse.

That is *exactly the point*, they want kids to be either too afraid to come out or to be forced to desist if they do.

It's extremely unwise (as this article does) to compare the results of a binary choice between two opposite outcomes to a ranked choice election between multiple candidates. 70% of SNP members who voted gave Humza Yousaf either a first or second preference vote, there is not a 'split' in that sense at all.
He was the first choice of a plurality of voters, and *a* prefered choice of a supermajority.

Labour could not have spent the contest signalling harder that they were excited about the prospect of Forbes becoming FM Half of them are using the fact that so many members even voted for her as an attack line!

Okay I've been tweeting about this sporadically, so here's the a list of all the fascists who I'm aware were at Kellie-Jay Keen/Posie Parker's 'Let Women Speak' Rally in George Square, Glasgow, today: First up we have Alistair McConnachie (aka Manky Jaiket), who runs a fascist group called 'UK A Force For Good' having been kicked out of UKIP for Holocaust Denial

This is what ‘Let Women Speak’ means in the words of the organiser.

"Women don't have penises.
Men don't have vaginas.
Non-binary is nonsense.
And transitioning children is abuse."

That is what she is saying that women (and let's be honest, although she doesn't address them, men as well) should be saying.

The thing about Posie Parker is that she used to be a pariah in the broader GC movement because of her open embrace of the far right, but things have gotten so bad that the Scottish Tories and much of the Scottish media will back her. JK Rowling promotes her store at the same time as she says that trans people are a Chinese conspiracy to undermine the West.

My take on this remains that if 16 is the age at which you gain voting rights then it should also be the age at which you can be a candidate, but I also think running a 16 year old as a candidate is almost certainly a bad idea in almost every circumstance. But also, yes, Susan Dalgety just hates young people because they don't hate trans people as much as she does.

No it's not. Nicola Sturgeon will know John Mason has an issue with the abortion buffer zones bill, that doesn't mean he's ever approached her about it.

Watching Keir Starmer's Mumsnet interview, and amongst other things he says he doesn't think trans kids should be allowed to socially transition without permission from their parents. Keir Starmer told Pink News earlier in the month that Labour would ban conversion therapy in all its forms.

I love Laura Kuenssberg’s ‘substitute teacher’ act here. Typical, the hard-left media trying to cancel a comedian just for having right-wing views.

Looks like it was Wes Streeting himself who pushed for Labour to adopt a default trans-exclusionary answer to the stupid gotcha questions about penises. There are two options a progressive politician has when asked a question like that.

1. The first is the call out the question as being an obvious attempt to harm trans people.

2. The second is to simply answer 'yes, trans women can'.

LGB Alliance are, and have always been, controlled opposition. The LGBT community could not reasonably be expected to have rejected LGB Alliance any harder than they did.

The failure was with the media (including ITV and the BBC) treating them as representative of a legitimate portion of the community for ‘balance’.

History will judge whether one doctor who never treated a trans patient was right, or whether all the evidence that he was wrong was right.

Actually, wait, why are we waiting for history again? He's just a random dude who doesn't like trans people and happened to work at the trust where the largest Gender Identity Clinic as.

He's lying about what conversion therapy is, because he wants it to be legal to abuse trans kids until they either act cis or die.
