Yesterday I was in a public women's toilet whilst 2 men fixed a plumbing issue. Amazingly no one objected and life has continued, as before.
Why are you so keen for men to be able to access female single-sex spaces @EmilyThornberry ?

By the end of England's first World Cup game, we will be one man down. 75% of people who die by suicide in the UK are men. That's one every 90 minutes. Minister @JakeBenRichards and @andysmanclubuk are talking about it.

Two things can be true at the same time. Thing 1: the attack in Belfast was unspeakably horrific and absolutely horrendous. Thing 2. Masked men burning down houses with children still inside is really awful and should be condemned. It's not complicated.

I am deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, encouragement, and kind messages I have received from people around the world. Your solidarity has reminded me that football unites us beyond borders. Thank you to everyone.

Full statement by the family of Stephen Ogilvie: "We are completely devastated by the horrific attack on our loved one on Kinnaird Avenue. "This has been a massive shock to our whole family, and right now, our only priority is being at his bedside and helping him recover. ​"We want to say a profound thank you to the local people who bravely stepped in during the attack. "Your quick actions absolutely saved his life, and we will never forget what you did for him in that moment. "We also want to thank the emergency services and the doctors and nurses looking after him. "​We are aware of the tensions and talk of protests following this incident. "We want to make it absolutely clear that overnight unrest is not welcome, and peaceful protest is the only way forward. "We have many migrants who make a deeply valuable contribution to our country, including in our healthcare system and hospitality sector and we depend on them to make our country work. "We do not want this terrible tragedy to be used to divide people or fuel hostility. "​We are asking the media and the public to please give us some space. "We need privacy to focus on our family right now, without cameras or people speculating about what happened.​ "If you know anything at all about the attack, or saw anything strange near Kinnaird Avenue, please go to the police. ​"Thank you for respecting our privacy"

'It’s about finding something awful and pretending people who had nothing to do with it are responsible!' James O’Brien says blaming 'all immigrants and refugees' for the Belfast attack is 'ridiculous'.

When Maxine Carr & Lucy Letby went to prison I never once wondered if people would blame me by association of being a fellow white woman. I don't recall feeling fear for men in my family after Sutcliffe, Huntley, Worboys etc. Yet this is the fear people from minorities live with

We're seeing a clear pattern from Reform now. We saw it in Southampton. We've seen it in Belfast. They're all over social media and the airwaves with inflammatory and provocative language. Then when violence occurs, they go to ground.

One other thing. People don't burn their neighbours out of their homes because they're angry. They do it because they get off on it.

In a famous 1972 televised debate, David Susskind argued that a woman could not be president because of the hormonal changes that occur during menstruation. ⁠ ⁠ Germaine Greer immediately put an end to the debate by asking him if he could tell whether she was menstruating at that very moment, which left his argument without a response.⁠

Sad to hear Anthony Head has passed away. The Gold Blend “will they, won’t they” ad campaign was a cultural phenomenon, an ongoing saga that lasted for 6 years, captivating audiences of 30 million. The inevitable kiss even made front page news. A landmark TV moment. RIP Anthony
