Watched @Channel4 #GenderWars 3x now & perhaps wish I'd phrased a few things differently but I stand by my contribution & absolutely support the airing of the varied other voices from across the Sex/Gender "debate" spectrum. We need to talk & that may mean breaking ranks to do so

Banger of a scoop from @daisyeastlake - former Green leader Adrian Ramsey will this weekend go public and accuse pro-Palestinian activists of having taken over the party and replaced its environmental values with anti-Israeli politics.
EXCL: Senior Greens will warn that the party has been taken over by pro-Palestinian activists who have replaced its environmental values with anti-Israeli politics Adrian Ramsay, the former leader and MP for Waveney Valley, is expected to give an interview to the BBC on Sunday criticising what has happened to the party under the leadership of Zack Polanski He leads a group of Green figures including former members of the European parliament as they call for a “conversation about the party’s direction”, after a series of scandals and internal party rifts about antisemitism New figures show some 18,000 members have left the party since its peak in May this year, falling to about 212,000 after the conference from a height of 230,000 The Times understands some party figures have estimated that up to eight council coalitions could collapse, after Labour said it would pull out of power-sharing agreements if local groups did not denounce a motion to declare Zionism to be racist. The exact number is still unclear Full read in @thetimes thetimes.com/article/fe67f93…

Last year, scientists reported that the average human brain contained roughly the weight of a plastic spoon in microplastics and nanoplastics. Now, a deeper look suggests a much broader assortment of material from the outside world is getting through. wapo.st/4ssQhnU

Walter Koenig has passed away. Everyone got to show their comedy chops in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, and Chekov asking for directions to the "Nuclear Wessels" and the interrogation scene are real highlights. Koenig often cited The Voyage Home as his favourite Trek film.

"I'm gonna add a Russian to the crew to depict a peaceful future, and also give him a Monkees haircut to appeal to teenage girls" was the most wonderfully goofy late 60s thing Gene Roddenberry did. R.I.P. and hope heaven has plenty of nuclear wessels.

Oh boy, are the Right excited by this graph recently published by The Economist! And of course none of them has bothered to read the article itself (TBF, it is behind a paywall!). So as always, let's add a little context and explain why these kinds of comparisons are so problematic 🧵1/25

Liz Truss, living on another planet!
If Liz Truss had not been turfed out as PM a mere 49 days into the job, the UK would have become an interplanetary economic behemoth… according to Liz Truss

Andy Burnham makes it very clear on @GMB today The British public are the "bosses" and ultimately it is up to them if we rejoin. But concedes it HAS weakened our economy and weakened our ability to control immigration.

1/ 🇷🇸🇷🇺 Vučić just lost Serbia. russia’s most useful Balkan ally called a snap election to cling to power. Students who spent 2 yrs in the streets crushed him. Moscow spent a decade buying influence with cheap gas & political cover. Europe didn't oust him. Serbians did.
