I can't cheer loud enough. Bloody well done @AllianceLGB - you deserve this victory but should NEVER have been dragged through this 'process as punishment' ordeal. But you have done society a service by exposing Mermaids - often through their own words. https://n.respublicae.eu/AllianceLGB/status/1676882216763240448

LGB Alliance: We are delighted that the tribunal found in our favour and that Mermaids and the LGBT Consortium have failed in their bid to remove our charitable status.

And they're right to slam it. #OnlineSafetyBill starts final stages in Lords tomorrow. It really is a huge threat to YOUR right to privacy &amp; to free speech. Myself &amp; @danielmgmoylan will oppose most censorious sections but the louder the clamour outside parliament, the better.

At @UKHouseofLords debate on violence against women &amp; girls, I argued we shouldn't look away when gender ideology policies negate spaces designed to practically help, from women's refuges to criminal justice safeguarding. Sadly minister ignored &amp; Labour dismissed as culture wars! https://n.respublicae.eu/Fox_Claire/status/1674884425467699200

Re Ironically, victims of sexual abuse are being sold short because authorities bought into the fiction of gender ideology, compromising women-only refuges. And, in the case of released rapist Clive Bundy, offenders being able to change gender, hiding his crimes from DBS checks.

Re If anything, it's time for the state to take back control of banking, to ensure economic policy is democratically accountable and not seen as a technocratic exercise of financial tinkering.

Same as @brexithenrik We both suspected political, but couldn't prove Then I saw what happened to @SpeechUnion / @UsforThemUK &amp; looked into politicised banks' value- statements, dominated by EDI orthodoxies, which banks themsleves state if breach can justify closing down accounts

Reading Zac Goldsmith's heartfelt, ministerial resignation letter, he's obviously sincere about environmental matters. Ironically, his stinging rebuke of Prime Minister for being indifferent on Green/climate change issues may do Rishi some good amongst net-zero sceptical voters https://n.respublicae.eu/christiancalgie/status/1674688008216363009

I am SO excited about this result. Well done for sticking your head above the parapet @DeniseFahmy. Winning is all the sweeter because insititutions like Arts Council seem to think they're big/ established enough to avoid scruitiny &amp; accoutability, especially by their own staff. https://n.respublicae.eu/RosieKayK2CO/status/1673648145832587264

Openly admitting contempt for democracy in here, as though their righteousness trumps voters' decisions. Dangerous arrogance. Luckily, a local cyclist also didn't "sit tight" and moved these selfish #JustStopOil numpties out of the way. https://n.respublicae.eu/JustStop_Oil/status/1673260774221815808

Many worried about rumoured DfE guidlelines to allow social transitioning in schools if parents agree. Will put huge pressure on Mums/Dads to allow gender ID pronouns. Keep thinking of wisdom at @acadofideas #BattleFest panel on social contagion last year https://youtu.be/eUFaIjVzq2g

Important thread from @HJoyceGender on Ireland's Hate Speech Bill. This, alongside the UK's #OnlineSafetyBill, will put free speech online in a very perilous position.
RT @HJoyceGender: I’m flying to Dublin to talk to the Seanad (Senate) this afternoon, about the dangerous and draconian Hate Speech bill currently making its way through the Irish parliament. It’s already passed the lower house (Dáil) and is now being presented to the Seanad. 1/7

No criticism allowed? Hardly good for democratic debate, whatever your views on #privilegescommittee
RT @Steven_Swinford: The Privileges Committee also says that criticising its members should be contempt of Parliament - it represents an attack on functioning or House

Unclear tonight whether the govt will allow a debate - and potentially symbolic vote - on the report
