This was Charles's best friend—that speaks volumes about his character—so yes, I believe Earl Spencer. 💯

One advantage of abolishing the Monarchy, is that it would also mean getting rid of the Lords, the Ladies, the Baronesses, the Barons, the Countesses, the Earls, the Marchionesses, the Marquesses, the Duchesses, the Dukes, the Princes and the Princesses too #AbolishTheMonarchy

This is exactly why we have Pride. Because a few years ago this would have just been a hateful fringe figure - but this is where our politics is heading with a Government that kertows. We will resist. And bring hope (*and* electing progressive politicians.) We will win. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

🚨🚨 ANOTHER PROTEST - CHARLES AND THE ROYALS have been told that it's time to 'Stop the Reign' directly under the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Support for the royals is collapsing. They can't keep dodging accountability. #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy #Epstein

#OnThisDay in 1988: Section 28 became law. Passed under Margaret Thatcher’s Conservative government, it banned local authorities from “promoting homosexuality” and stopped schools from teaching that same-sex relationships were acceptable as a “pretended family relationship”. For years, it helped fuel fear, silence and shame around LGBT people in classrooms, councils and public life. Teachers were left scared to support gay pupils. Young people grew up without proper representation. And a whole generation was told, by law, that their lives and families were somehow less valid. Here is Margaret Thatcher speaking in 1987, the year before Section 28 became law, claiming children were being taught they had “an inalienable right to be gay”. Section 28 became one of the most notorious and damaging laws of the Thatcher era. It was finally repealed in Scotland in 2000, and in England and Wales in 2003.

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter dire threat of a Reform UK government theguardian.com/politics/202…

Remember that no politician gave a fuck about this terrorist attack that attempted to burn a bunch of queer people alive two days ago. No condemnation from any of them, not even Head F*ggot Wes Streeting, and no public money awarded to repair the damage. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c145…

What are the odds of a mother's two sons both having different friends who were the most prolific child sex offenders in history?

Never forget the real reason the West hates Iran. In 1951, Prime Minister Mossadegh did the unthinkable: he nationalized Iran's oil to benefit his own people instead of the British Empire. He put his nation first, and for that, Washington and London targeted him.

This is what Elon Musk looked like before he took hormones, had a hair transplant and plastic surgery. All stuff that he wants banned for Trans people.

It's incredible to think about it. The Famine was 174 years ago and the population of Ireland still hasn't recovered from it.
Ireland’s population chart remains a wild one to look at. The country has still not recovered from the Great Famine (1845-52).
