Twin hashtags making GBS threads on Harry and Meghan on Twitter and I both do not care but also suspect that many of the people accusing Harry of being racist are not doing so out of a genuine concern for ethnic harmony.

But...he's a ginner? What kind of double reverse racism has the mail accused him off this time.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.

Mordaunt is better than most Tories on the issues, probably because her twin brother is gay. But that just means she supports anti-LGBT legislation because the base demands it rather than actively proposing it because she wants it.

Why was she asked two trans questions, are the existence trans people such a national issue that they have to be discussed at the campaign launch of a prospective Prime Minister. Just manafactured culture wars all the way down, euuugggh.

Because anger and throwing the current minority de jure under the bus both distracts from any actual critique of policy (not that it seems anyone cares about that anymore) and signal boosts the candidate by increasing visibility and general engagement. Same for any advertising really.

It's extremely hard not to benefit from negative publicity regarding wedge issues like that (i hate that trans rights are a loving wedge issue... gently caress people so much) Especially if you're aware what you're saying will cause people to flip out and can just keep doubling down. It'll further strengthen your base, and get it shared to way more people who may decide they like what you say.

It doesn't work the other way because you have to be a oval office and know it. Which many sensible centrist types could never admit to

Mordaunt is probably not personally anti-trans, but she will absolutely say or do whatever is needed in order to win the votes of the 100k or so elderly bigots who will decide the next PM.

It's also a weak point for the confluence of authoritarian capitalism and Christian nationalism that has been bubbling on and off in the US for centuries to try and attack.

Gender clinics are transing kids, therefore destroying childhood, the NHS is killing children, inclusive sex education is grooming children, the only solution is to scrap all healthcare and education and return to the old-fashioned Christian family.

No wait not the ones with two dozen members that live in the hills and blow up coal mines, I mean the nuclear family that's too small to organize against wage slavery, dependent on health insurance, and keeps churning out more workers, just like in the Bible.

Only if it goes to a run-off.

Normally I'd think Sunak would romp this, but it looks like about half the MPs are against him and if they unify behind Mordaunt or Truss he may well withdraw. Those two might also be able to split the support of the other five ghouls in exchange for considerations, which still won't be good for decent LGBT legislation but it will be the MPs rather than the membership who decide.

Honestly, I think whichever of Mordaunt and Truss is first to offer Tugendhat a Great Office is going to win.

Julie Holland, 61, who lives opposite the former vicarage owned by Stephanie Hawa, also 61, was also not sympathetic to the MP. Holland, who owns a cat called Boris, named after the prime minister, and a dog called Stanley, after Johnson’s father, said: ‘It’s a disgrace. If he had done that to my cat I would have done something about it. But, she added: “I’m still a supporter.”
