From the BBC report on Robinson's appeal, showing that even imprisonment has its upsides:
Baroness Carr said the court had carefully considered Yaxley-Lennon's complaints about his treatment in prison when coming to its decision.
"He says that he cannot now watch GB News."

My son joined Llandudno RNLI in 2021 and with intensive training, including in Poole, he has advanced to an inshore lifeboat helm [his first command] and inshore lifeboat head launcher and recently passed his tier 1 all weather lifeboat qualification and is on his way to passing tier 2Is this true?? You have family members who work in the lifeboats???It's not a joke in our family who have had several members drowned at sea over the years, and experienced the pain of a loved one never being found or returned to them and who value the RNLI with a passionIt’s a frigging joke. I’m making a joke that I’m so dementedly antiWoke I’m determined to crush the communist running dogs manning the lifeboatsOur son puts his life on the line to save lives at sea in weather you wouldn't believe, and he does it entirely free and that is only because he is part of the RNLI which is highly respected and any normal person would see your comment as utterly distastefulTOTAL VICTORY FOR TERFSOnly for people who never understood the vibe.BREAKING: Supreme Court rules the term sex refers to 'biological women'Another straw in the wind of the vibeshift

UK Supreme Court judge Lord Hodge announces that the Equality Act’s definition of a woman is based on biological sex.
He counsels not to see this as a triumph for one side over another and stresses the law still gives trans people protection against discrimination.
(some hope on the last point)
An entirely reasonable and understandable judgment and doesn’t take away from woke at all.
Now we have to bring down the RNLI
This is done in his own time, and on 24 hour call in all weather, and he provides his services along with his other dedicated colleagues entirely free but has the same legal liability as any full time RNLI paid crew member including coxswains
This is why I will defend the RNLI against unwarranted attacks

He’s more of a fox hunter than a barrister.Jolyon not taking the Supreme Court Judgement wellI don't believe that he spoke to three KC's who said that the case brought by For Women Scotland was inarguable.
https://x.com/tonydowson5/status/1912439059579814218?s=61
Inarguable cases do not go before the Supreme Court.
Jolyon is more activist than lawyer.

I doubt it. The Conservatives' fundamental problems are:-I suspect if the Tories replaced Badenoch with Honest Bobby J. we would see an exponential change between Ref and Con.
Latest MIC leadership polling. Amongst 2024 Tory voters barely a third think Badenoch best PM. Farage next most popular, but surprising support for Starmer too.
- they have hardly any MPs left (about 120; they lost 250 MPs last July)
- Boris purged a lot of the experienced ones
- almost every criticism of Labour at PMQs can be knocked back by Starmer saying the Tories started it (whatever "it" is)

Good prog about Nick Leeson (on now). Thatcher and her gang really do send the shivers down you.Far be it for me to defend "Mrs Fatch", but to be fair to her she didn't attempt a dictatorial coup and she walked when she was told to walk.
The UK's version of the US under Trunmp and co now.
