Forcing people to wear pro-LGBTQ+ items is a bad idea. Free speech is free speech, regardless of what you want to say. So, personally, I'd love to see each footballer given the choice, so I know which ones are decent human beings and which ones believe it's not okay to be gay.
Manchester United players abandoned the club’s plans to wear an Adidas jacket in support of the LGBTQ+ community ahead of Sunday’s Premier League match against Everton after Noussair Mazraoui refused to join the initiative. #MUFC | #PL. More from @AdamCrafton_.

The Iranian government has voted against laws that would crack down on both human trafficking and the sex trafficking of minors. Sorry. Did I say the Iranian government? I meant new US Attorney General Matt Gaetz.

I mean. He actively helped cover up YEARS worth of child abuse and paedophilia. And you're praising his "openness"??.
Very sorry to hear of the resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury - I have worked with him for a long time and have always been struck by his humility, openness, care and sense of public service.

There's an incredible pile of things I don't understand and never will, but the thought of SEVENTY MILLION PEOPLE actively voting for a convicted fraudster and sexual predator over a qualified, intelligent woman will remain top of that list for a very long time. Just. HOW?!.

You are aware she's possibly the only person in this country viewed with more ridicule than yourself, right?.

Bad people and racists will never disappear. But never let anyone convince you they hold the majority. Their volume just reflects their stupidity. The stupid ones always shout the loudest because they don't know any other way to get their point across. So. Let's. Shout. Back.

We. Outnumber. Them. The best of us are more than the worst of us, in number and substance. So be brave. Speak out. Stand with those of us who want everyone to have equity and safety. 2/.

These last few days have been painful to watch. The attacks on the principles this country represents rile me like little else. So to see the scenes in Brighton and Preston remind me of one thing, one VERY important thing. 1/.

Just saying, if you're attacking mosques and immigrants because of an atrocious crime committed by a Welsh-by-birth child from a Christian household, you're a special kind of racist, xenophobic moron.
In light of the recent threats and attacks, Home Secretary @YvetteCooperMP has announced greater protection that will allow mosques to ask for rapid security when needed – providing communities with vital support and reassurance ⬇️.

Y'know, this big yellow ball of hate in the sky that people have taken to calling "the sun" can bugger off. I'm melting.

Booked in to attend Lib Dem and Tory conferences again this year, fingers crossed I get a slightly warmer reception at the yellow one than I did last year 👀🤣.

Okay, I think it's finally time to admit how much I miss being actively involved in politics. .

Came up to London for a professional event, was lucky enough to be spontaneously invited to a much swankier event in Town this evening. THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS OVERDRESS! 🤣🤣 #Tactical.

Conservatives would be making a big mistake if they tried to copy Nigel Farage

Y'know, I've worked with plenty of LGBTQ+ Tories, and many many more allies besides. I think they'd all agree that when her leadership challenge lies dead, we'll wrap its coffin in the flag, and take PRIDE in the offence she takes.
Suella Braverman’s speech in Washington this evening contains a blistering attack on pro-LGBT Tories. She says the pride (progress) flag has been flown on govt buildings as if marking “occupied territory”, accusing Tory colleagues of supporting a “horrible political campaign”
