What digitial IDs can’t do: - stop illegal immigration - stop crime - help the poor - save money - make your life easier What digitial IDs can do: - make billions for the people who operate them - jeopardise your personal data, leaving you exposed to identity theft and blackmail - stop working due to hacks, system crashes and technical glitches - end your right to privacy - enable the government to spy on you, recording your movements, shopping habits, social media contacts, social media posts, DMs, phone calls, text messages, emails, personal photos and videos, and even access your camera and microphone - pave the way for authoritarian measures through constant surveillance, punishing wrong think and pre-crime - switch off your access to anything that in future requires them, which could include anything from internet access to driving your car to using your bank account Literally nobody voted for this…

Hmm. 2025 conference actively sought to exclude anyone critical / queer / open-minded / values-based / human. Zero reflection from the IUHPE boomers, despite dire turnout in Abu Dhabi. Have they really learned anything? Or just an attempt to erase 2025 from memory? #IUHPE2028
Well this is exciting! The World Conference on Health Promotion will be held in Naarm/Melbourne in 2028. International Union for Health Promotion and Education (IUHPE) expects 1,500 delegates premier.vic.gov.au/health-pr… @CroakeyNews @BronFredericks

Asylum seekers don't have housing and can't work.
Richard Tice, "By removing hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers we'll ease the pressure on the housing market, and we'll ease the pressure on the Labour market, and that'll lead to higher wages"

Indeed, shame on them all! Using the tattered remnants of the Ottawa Charter to wipe their ass… this is not what health promotion was supposed to be #IUHPE2025. @adphc_ae You have many apologies to make!
IUHPE Executive Board knew exactly what they were doing, when they partnered with an authoritarian regime with no regard for humans rights. Shame on you, IUHPE! #IUHPE2025 @ADNECGroup @adphc_ae

Referring to trans lives and their rights as a “debate” tells me all I need to know about her views.
Harry Potter star Katherine Parkinson refuses to ‘add to debate’ about JK Rowling’s trans views ➡️ bit.ly/4m1nceS

Hmm. Disappointing to hear claim that all “food made in factories is bad for us” and all we need to do is reduce salt, sugar and fat to solve public health nutrition challenges. Not sure politicians = nutrition experts @FoodPolicyCity @joan_walmsley

Wetherspoons man says no complaints about trans people in 46 years. BMA says sit down transphobes. WI says sit down transphobes. Lesbians say no thanks to trans exclusionary bar. YouGov poll says only 2% think trans is an issue. It's time to leave trans people alone.

At times like these of worry, its worth looking at the positives that exist now, and the positives that could exist moving forward. 1) No new laws have been introduced, and NO old laws have been removed. 1/

As part of my dissertation, I am researching YA fiction, does anyone know of any good examples of popular YA fiction that is set in the UK? Most of the YA books I find are set in America. Would be good to find some British ones as well.

I'll never understand British people moving to Dubai. A soulless, socially conservative dictatorship with no culture made up of some skyscrapers in a desert. Literally can't think of a worse place to move.
I’m leaving the UK and here’s why… ✈️

Be under no illusion - 'LGB' groups care more about harming trans people than they care about advancing rights for lesbian, gay, and bisexual people. Any movement that seeks to isolate and harm any section of society should be condemned. labourlist.org/2025/02/labou…

Bigoted Brits, you chose to vote yourselves out of the EU. The whitest continent in the world. Many of the white people that lived here then left. The Tories then decided that they needed to fill the skills shortage gap so asked people from former colonies to move to GB to 1/2

Dear thick racists, Asylum seekers cannot claim benefits. No matter how many times you spew this lie, it will never become the truth. The truth matters.
