Starmer and Trump have phone call and look forward to co-operating going forward

Sensible to dial down the rhetoric

He phoned him and begged for a bone. A throwaway tweet about 'British support'
Our humiliation is almost complere

Not at all. Unless Starmer does capitulate, in which case you would have a point. For the moment at least you don't.

Not for the first time i may be wrong or i may be right
May the road rise with me

Do you frequently find yourself energised by a general sense of anger? I get the sense that you do.

Very observant of you! Of course

Why PB feels the need to publish TERF bilge is byeond me.

Most things seem to be beyond you. Maybe you should educate yourself.

I do love a good libertarian who has no interest in civil liberties or human rights.

It is because of my interest in civil liberties and human rights that I agree with Cyclefree and the Supreme Court judgement. As someone has already said it is you who are on the wrong side of history and who wants to take away rights from women.

Indeed. As ever the rights of individuals stop at the point when they impinge on the rights of other individuals. We have XX and XY. That's biology. The right of women to not have their spaces invaded by biological XY men overrides any individual rights of that XY man.

Happily it does seem that the worm has turned, the lawsuits are starting and the doctors that mutilated children and performed these operations on them are being held accountable for profiteering from kids being a bit confused during puberty.

The support for the men in dresses has collapsed everywhere. Even among liberal Americans it's just fallen through the floor which does explain why the supporters are becoming increasingly shrill and angry.

I'll say it again, if you disagree with Cyclefree's headers or indeed any other headers including mine. I am happy to publish threads by you that disagree with a header, send me a Vanilla message with your pieces.

I'd be happy to contribute, but is PB really the best forum for it?

Things that interest me: Digital ID, the Online "Safety" Act, trial by jury (as noted above) leasehold reform, income tax, UBI.

I reply to Cyclefree's guff simply because nobody else on this forum bothers to point out that other views, and lived experiences, are available. It's not a topic I'd care to drone on about while literal drones are blowing up oil fields. It's almost like there are more important things going on.

It genuinely mortifies me that my partner's mere existence was something to be debated or argued about. Something that Max the Fash and Richard "Libertarian" Tindall might pontificate on.

I occasionally pipe up, if only to remind people that polling continues to show significantly more support for trans people by females than by males, and that public opinion on the issue is far more nuanced and less ideological than social media would imply.

But it’s a toxic debate, as are all debates about identity and competing rights.

20 minute phone call with Starmer who expressed sympathy for US loses

Will speak again apparently

Ed Davey calls for Charles visit to US to be cancelled

Fair from Starmer. Also fair from Davey.

I wonder if some nasty s**tstirring tw@t has been poisoning the well over dinner at Mar a Lago?

I do not think Charles should go, as he will be exposed to the US media asking him what he knew of AMW and the Epstein scandal

It will or would dominate US airways with the Democrats demanding AMW testifies in US

It will or would be very embarrassing

Does the King do question-and-answer sessions at press conferences? Can't say I recall any.

No and Trump would probably torture and jail any journalist who dares ask them about Epstein given he is also mentioned in the files
