@DavidBe31099196 @MMorrall17262 Thanks for your thoughtful thread David. If the threshold for civic nationalism were set at the kind of level you personally feel - ie. I love this place so much I'm willing to die for it - what do you think immigration policy and numbers would look like?

Goosebumps. For all its faults, Western Christian culture is still worth defending.

I will be supporting the House of Lords amendments to the Diego Garcia Bill tonight. Ukrainians, Greenlanders, Chagossians, all of us have a right to self-determination. As a party and a country we should stand up for that right.

@KemiBadenoch Kemi, I'm glad you're speaking out and raising the alarm on this. Starmer does not seem to proceed from a position that the role of the UK PM is, first and foremost, to serve the interests of Britain. But, as with so many others things, this mess originated with your party.

To be honest, I didn't even know Vancouver Parks and Recreations had avowed me, so the disavowal hasn't been much of a blow. Next time, send me a certificate of avowal, wait until I've proudly framed it, hung it over my PC and taken a selfie with it, THEN revoke it.

The BBC's way of reporting on the protests in Iran is to quote a statement by Khamenei that the protestors are vandals trying to please Trump What on earth are thinking of ? Shameful

As an Iranian & liberal, I don’t know how to say this any clearer: Stop making the Iranian revolution about who YOU like or don’t like politically in the west. U either support freedom from a murderous oppressive regime or u don’t; & if u do just support Iranians. That’s it.

A worrying list of people supporting the Iranian "revolution" - Its not an area I know much about - but this list gives me cause for suspicion 👇 Tommy Robinson Trump Netanyahu JK Rowling Jenrick Farage 🤔

This is absolutely bizarre. A local councillors tells a TV interviewer that she was "born and bred here", then checks herself as if she has said something terrible, and then the interviewer weighs in against her for saying it. Truly extraordinary.

@janeclarejones @ukvillafan @Lo0ce @mollscroll @grace_hawthorn So does the key task of destroying trans ideology come back to challenging the IS in the mantra ‘a trans woman is a woman’ rather than challenging males adopting stereotypically female mores? If not then it seems that acceptable adoption of female mores is a question of degree.

Female students at a medical school in Afghanistan’s Kapisa province weep as a man announces that they are no longer allowed to continue their studies. The Taliban’s new order bans women from medical education, closing the last remaining institutions where women can learn.

The rewriting of history begins. Opponents of gender ideology haven't merely 'endured unsparing criticism'. I haven't simply been told I 'betrayed real feminism' or received a few book-burning videos. I've been sent thousands of threats of murder, rape and violence. A trans woman posted my family's home address with a bomb-making guide. My eldest child was targeted by a prominent trans activist who attempted to doxx her and ended up doxxing the wrong young woman. I could write a twenty thousand word essay on what the consequences have been to me and my family, and what we've endured is NOTHING compared to the harm done to others. By standing up to a movement that relies on threats of violence, ostracisation and guilt-by-association, all of us have been smeared and defamed, but many have lost their livelihoods. Some have been physically assaulted by trans activists. Female politicians have been forced to hire personal security on the advice of police. The news that one of the UK's leading endocrinologists, Dr Hillary Cass, was advised not to travel by public transport for her own safety should shame everyone who let this insanity run amok. Lest we forget, gender apostates have been targeted for crimes such as doubting the evidential basis for transitioning children, for arguing for fair sport for women and girls, for wanting to retain single sex spaces and services, especially for the most vulnerable, and for thinking it barbaric to lock in female prisoners with convicted male sex offenders. Now the political landscape has shifted, and some who've been riding high on their own supply are waking up with a hell of a hangover. They've started wondering whether calling left-wing feminists who wanted all-female rape centres 'Nazis' was such a smart strategy. Maybe parents arguing that boys ought not to be robbing their daughters of sporting opportunities might, sort of, have a point? Possibly letting any man who says 'I'm a woman' into the locker room with twelve-year-old girls could have a downside, after all? Mealy-mouthed retconning of what has actually happened over the past ten years is predictable but will not stand. I don't doubt those who've turned a blind eye to the purges of non-believers, or even applauded and encouraged them, would rather minimise what the true cost of speaking out was, but 'yes, maybe trans activists went a little over the top at times' takes are frankly insulting. A full reckoning on the effects of gender ideology on individuals, society and politics is still a long way off, but I know this: the receipts will make very ugly reading when that time comes, and there are far too many of them to sweep politely under the carpet.

@StanCollymore I refer you to @KonstantinKisin explaining to Brits why so many Americans voted for Trump. In addition: 1) encouraging people as individuals with agency rather than dependents of the gov is imperative for flourishing. 2) the left encouraged radical trans ideology.

@StanCollymore It’s a great question, and so reasonably and civilly expressed. I am a Brit who married an American and just moved back to the UK after 15 years in America. I was a Labour Party member for over 20 years but became disillusioned with the left beginning around 2015/2016. 1/2
