WTF?

The toilet appears to be under the kitchen sink! (see photo 4).

How the heck are you supposed to use that? Or do they only let to people with gentlemen's equipment and expect them to do No2 in a public convenience?

Well take it from the Scottish people repeatedly stating that Labour hate the SNP more than the Tories in Scotland at this point

Scottish Labour certainly do, but when has the Westminster Labour party given a poo poo about regional parties? I fall on the "Starmer will make any deals to cling to power" side, but it's certainly not implausible that he gets high on his own Hubris.

I don't like it when the nice dogs disagree

But yeah scotlab definitely hates them more cause England barely knows Scotland exists but Scotland used to belong to Labour which benefitted the English Labour Party, since they lost Scotland they've done nothing but eat poo poo in elections.
Plus if the SNP failed the thinking is probably that Scotland would go Labour again not tory (lol imo).

They could probably just call the SNPs bluff and let Scotland vote to stay in again, but that didn't hurt the snp last time so they'd probably just successfully campaign on a 3rd referendum within a year of the result

lmao, oval office's bio/tagline/whatever is "Remember: Lib Dems received £100,000 from a company that makes puberty blockers"

That's their scandal of the year? A party that's barely a party received a trifling amount for a corporate political donation from a company that among other things makes medicines where the main side effect is a slight reduction in the lifelong risk of certain cancers.

What a bitter lovely coward.

It's like a squat toilet except you have to keep your knees at a right angle and sort of wiggle yourself back into the pooping crevice. May be advisible to include a tether to extricate yourself afterwards.

Maybe it's like those studies where they reveal that the average toilet has less bacteria than the average office desk. Having a toilet next to the food prep is actually more hygenic, checkmate atheists.

What I don't get is how that place is the price that it is, given how far away from central London it seems to be. To the point where it's more accurate to describe the location as "how very close to the edge of 'still technically London' it is".

I feel so strongly about that flat with the toilet under the sink that I've reported it to Barnet Council (and what a pain it is finding an email address for them!)
Absolutely sure it breaks some law somewhere!

Now they're Labour (I think) maybe they'll do something!

Ed: Huh - seems the email address is basically for parking fine queries and few other bits and bobs. I don't want to phone them because reports on the internet is that they don't answer the phone or hang up on people.

Reported it to Zoopla now.

I used to live a bit north of there in Woodside Park. It's maybe 25-45 minutes into central London depending on time of day, persons on the line, signal failures etc.

Believe this was the smoking gun, but it's been suspected for some time, along with some other accounts. a bunch of Much-More-Online-than-me pro-trans tweeters that normally seem reasonable and trustworthy generally take it as established fact from their own experience, so take from that what you will.

It's hard to tell if they're deliberately picking the worst people for each job in order to stick up two fingers to anyone who isn't a Tory party member, or if they're just all so bad that any MP would look terrible for any cabinet job. Kind of leaning towards the latter.

Some poo poo about puberty blockers again. People who have no clue how they work have very strong opinions about them.

They should probably be made more available outside of just gender affirmation and precocious puberty, because of their effectiveness at lowering cancer risk later in life. That'd also have the side effect of making these people sound even more unhinged to the general population, like when the dominionist nutters went off about the cervical cancer vaccine.

Yeah, I'm still uneducated about a lot of the transitioning process but after hearing trans people and doctors talk about bits of the process puberty blockers seem like a God send.

Puberty blockers:

I too am not 100% on this (I mean in terms of understanding).

When people say to me stuff like no one under the age of 18 should get these things, what I have gleaned mostly from here (and stand to be corrected!) and say to them - well to the ones who are willing to have a proper discussion anyway - is:
"As I understand it, if you go through puberty in your outward body, then irreversible physiological changes occur. However, if you take puberty blockers and don't go through puberty at the 'usual' age, and then when you're 18 or whatever decide that actually you don't wish to transition, you stop taking the blockers and have puberty, albeit at a later age than most people, and with no adverse effects."

Is this understanding right?

Also he did the familiar cycle of going from 'I can keep silent no longer: it is every parent's duty to watch this insightful youtube video essay by Graham Linehan' to 'i am reflecting, i am taking a break, i am deleting my twitter' within 24 hours once people gave him pushback, and this apparently was the work of the transgender deep state gestapo.
