96% of Jews in Poland were murdered by the Nazis. That is genocide.
3% of Gaza’s population, mostly male combatants, died in the war they started. That is not genocide.

A remarkable and deeply moving photograph capturing the first two minutes of silence in London, 106 years ago on Tuesday 11th November 1919.
The first time a grieving nation held its collective breath.
Lest we forget.

The “Conversion Practices” bill would essentially make voicing a Christian view on sexuality / marriage / gender impossible
The bill is NOT fit for purpose in a UK which claims to be “tolerant” and “inclusive” 🇬🇧👇👇👇

I really think people need to wake up to just how draconian this bill is before it's too late.
Labour’s ‘conversion therapy’ bill is an Orwellian nightmare. Parents can be jailed for questioning a child’s ’trans identity’. ‘Deadnaming’ will also be criminalised. It is sinister, says Andrew Tettenborn

Most people have barely heard of the proposed conversion therapy legislation.
69% have never heard of it.
23% have heard of it but know no details.
Just 4% say they know about it in detail.
A strikingly low level of public awareness for such a contentious proposal.

@WStoneInsight poll: Support for extending conversion therapy laws is far more conditional than headline figures suggest.
51% initially support extending the law. But among these supporters, 76% would oppose it if at least one of 15 tested scenarios were included.
