I'm having trouble understanding the 2008 financial crisis. Could someone please explain it in lehman's terms?

I know its not as sexy as trying to build a movement, but I am proud to have spent a decade writing from a feminist perspective in outlets women like JCJ sneered at.

The simple truth is that Jane never had the leadership skills required to build a movement. She couldn't even lead her own editorial team without it devolving into bullying and backbiting (by her).

Even by her own lights, it's not actually true. "We are not the same movement" was their slogan. So HER movement didn't get captured, it just fizzled out. Because of her.

The fact is, some people see charts like this and think "we need to do something about this". And some people think "we need to do something about people who think we need to do something about this".

We are reporting today from the Employment Appeal Tribunal of Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (or DSTL) v Wilkins. DSTL is appealing. Dr Peter Wilkins, a civil servant, won an employment tribunal case in March 2025 for constructive dismissal, harassment and direct discrimination based on his protected gender-critical beliefs.

5 years in prison and a criminal record for this:
The parliamentary committee on the draft Conversion Practices Bill has issued its call for evidence. Read our briefing on who is at risk from criminalisation by this legislation and start thinking about responding. sex-matters.org/posts/update…

The thing most likely to kill you isn't smoking, or a crack overdose. It's old age. Smoke 'em if you got 'em, folks.
1/ The man most likely to rape a White British woman isn't on a small boat or an immigrant. He's her partner or her ex. The graph by @TheEconomist is doing rounds, and @RestoreBritain , @reformparty_uk and the rest of the circus of the self-appointed protectors of White British women think that it proves their made up point: that White British women's biggest danger is immigrant men. Well, data and facts say a different story, a story that the circus of the self-appointed protectors of White British women don't want normal people to know. Here's the data. 🧵

Two Tavistock whistleblowers warned about its gender clinic long before it closed. Now they are raising the alarm about the draft Conversion Practices Bill. Watch therapists Marcus and Susan Evans explain why it poses serious risks to children, parents and families.

Hey @SkyNews 👋 Arab Israeli here. Allow me to set the record straight: there are no “Palestinian citizens of Israel” and your attempt to erase our identity and belonging in this country is racist, inaccurate and offensive. Can you imagine saying “the Mexican citizens of the United States” simply because one is Latino? Less than 15% of Arab Israelis identify as Palestinian (and most polls have it closer to 7%). You don’t get to decide what our identity is.
Could Palestinian voters tip Israel's election? Sky's @adamparsons looks at whether Palestinian citizens of Israel can turn their votes into meaningful political influence in this week's election

“It was separately reported before the conference that Engelsman wrote in his book, Lactation for the Rest of Us: A Guide for Queer and Trans Parents and Helpers, that cisgender men might seek to lactate primarily to feed and bond with a baby and, to a lesser extent, for “curiosity, fun, or sexual gratification”. The Journal was also unable to independently verify this..” WW4W and others verified it very easily by simply looking inside Jacob Engelsman’s book, screenshots below.
"The Journal could not independently verify this..." That's strange, since it's on Mr Engelsman's CV which is online Stephen @Ste_McDermott jacobengelsmanibclc.com/ archive.ph/2026.10.25-211508…

“A colleague of mine said to me, if you say you’re a Zionist at the BBC, you might as well say you had your foot on the neck of George Floyd. You’re a murderer. You’re an evil colonialist. You’re a racist. And I’m not any of those things. And neither are the other people I know who are Zionists.” Extraordinary testimony from the now ex-BBC Exec Producer @imluciekon here. I’ve nothing but admiration for her courage in taking this on. 👇🏼

Increasingly the far right is becoming both antisemitic and anti Israel. Israel provides the UK with around 9 per cent of our weaponry and that is unlikely to change unless Labour insists on more sanctions on the country.
It's been reported by the Telegraph that Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered Israel to support Argentina on the Falklands over Britain. Why should Britain be expected to defend Israel's national interests if Israel's leadership refuses to respect ours? Britain is not obliged to give any foreign government unconditional political or military support. Our foreign policy should be guided by British interests, and British interests only - that is the Restore Britain position. The Falkland Islands are British, and will remain British.

People are starting to notice that Lowe is a nasty man whose chief political talent is telling people on twitter what they want to hear.

1)Accusing women abused by Muslim men of "using their suffering for political purposes" is disgusting. 2)Yes, your claim that abused women & girls weaponise their oppression absolutely empowers their violent racist abusers. 3)Your belief that brown men are noble savages is racist
