The only thing I think about the #RoyalWedding is that those broken little boys who lost their mother all those years ago, walked behind her coffin, heads bowed, world collapsed, are both now happy and loved and I think that's a lovely and beautiful thing & good luck to them. 💖

When I came out as gay aged 38, not one person, including my (male) partner of 14 years, challenged truth of it. Everyone accepted it; my life, my brain, my heart, my soul. I knew it was true, so they knew it was true. Why is it *so* different for trans people? 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈💜#Pride2023.

"Corbyn's ex girlfriend"? You mean Diane Abbott, Member of Parliament for Hackney North, Oxbridge grad, 1st in fam to go to uni & UK's first black woman MP? I'm no fan of her politics but NOTION she's benificary of Corbyn's nepotism for an ex is idiotic. Get a grip @toadmeister.

Labour MPs, pick a date, & all resign the whip together. You would be larger group than corbynista MPs and would become Official Oppostion. Then you'd have 4 yrs to build something decent and powerful before next gen election. You can do this, and the country needs you to. ✊🥀💖.

When Ann Widdecome was Prisons Minister she supported chaining pregnant women to hospital beds until full labour was established. The idea that she is presenting herself as a champion of oppressed people is both utterly grim and utterly farcical.

To all who replied with variation of “you’re stupid”, can I just say: idea of a strict gender binary is massive failure of imagination. Humans are infinitely complex, our understanding of ourselves & each other is always evolving. Beautiful world of discovery out there. Enjoy it.

In 2016 I told Seumas Milne that I thought he was destroying the Labour Party, 5 mins later Corbyn's Chief of Staff tried to have me removed from a hotel for "intimidating" him. The level of contempt I have for this authoritarian man & his hideous politics is extremely high.

In my early 20s I raised FGM at a Labour women's conf in Labour HQ, was told by the panel that we needed to be culturally sensitive and not seek to judge or penalise things we didn't understand. "It's their culture" continues to this day to betray every single victim of fgm.
It’s not surprising @DrAdrianHarrop is a Labour super. I have spent 25 years of my life seeking be heard over people like him on the left. People who think the abuse of brown girls is just not a big issue.

Everyone decent should resign the Labour whip, organise & regroup over summer, come back in September as Independent Labour, with a platform and a vision, have the numbers to become Official Opposition, and fight the hard left (tooth & nail) the honest way - from the outside.
It is the Labour leadership which has brought the party into disrepute - not Margaret Hodge. How dare they preach about “respect between colleagues” when this very code legitimizes the most appalling disrespect.

Would @jeremycorbyn ever defend a scrawled "no blacks, no Irish, no dogs" on basis of freedom of speech? Excuse my language, but like fuck he would.

When you think about the epic challenges facing the country and the world, it is quite extraordinary that the Labour Party is being ripped to pieces because the hard left want to be free to say within the rules, "Israel is a racist endeavour". It's actually pathetic.
If @jeremycorbyn ‘compromises’ on this, then it’ll be a huge error (& I fear, the end of Jeremy Corbyn) . There must be free speech on Israel in @UKLabour as there is free speech on France, USA, Russia and all the other countries.

I beg all Labour people to read this, and see the level of unadulterated hatred, bigotry and ignorance coming into the Labour Party now. It's dangerous. I'm guessing his views on Jewish people may be worth exploring too. There's huge overlap between Islamism and antisemitism.

Extraordinary allegation that Corbyn, when presented with evidence of anti-Jew comments (including Jews being "germs") of man he'd invited to Parliament, said "he didnt say anything like that to me". Staggering. Resign @jeremycorbyn and take the sordid hard-left with you.

Oh for crying out loud. Every credible agency that has seen the evidence believes it was Russia. Corbyn is 'standing his ground' (ish) because he's a conspiracy theorist who thinks British intelligence service is lying/wrong and somehow he (and Milne) know best. Pathetic.
Fair play to @jeremycorbyn standing by his belief that we shouldn’t rush to judgement on the Salisbury poisoning. It takes nerve to stand your ground in the face of fierce political and media denunciation. And more nerve in politics would be a good thing.

If being left-wing means backing regimes where women are stoned to death for adultery, destroying regeneration schemes which would transform lives of poorest communities and triggering an army of pure hate against anyone who dares disagree then Corbyn Labour is indeed left-wing.
If the centre ground is deporting black Britons, backing anti-Semitic regimes, sucking up to Trump, decimating the welfare state and public services, slashing taxes on big business and overseeing the worst fall in wages since the 1810s, then yes, the Tories are the centre ground.

I really hope Labour MPs and activists who have known Ian McKenzie for decades come out to defend and support him now. This is nothing more than a political revenge by Labour's hard left elite. It's what they do. Don't let them get away with it.
Please see what's happening to @iMcKenzied. This is process people who effectively stand up to hard left Labour are put through. 1. Immediate smears about things unrelated to issue. 2. Mass sharing of smears by online army. 3. @skwawkbox treatment. 4. Become untouchable in Labour.

Anyone who has been through student politics, Labour or any Left-wing politics in the last decade nows this is true. #BDS has been a poisonous movement, that has chipped away at the soul of the Left, and duped many good people into thinking they were helping a moral cause.

Vile. Am only glad the viciousness of the hard left is finally - finally - getting the exposure it deserves and needs. We cannot put these people anywhere near power. That's it.
