Folks, it's time. We had a good run. This whole "UK"-thing has kinda failed spectacularly, we should just wrap it up and call it a day.

I've always found the best way to help people is by removing access to their life saving healthcare with an unprecedentedly low regret rate. Especially when you base the removal on a flawed, biased review.

I'm starting to think that I need to take personal responsibility for increasing the regret rate for fucking with trans healthcare

Insanity. And this is supposedly the Labour party. Can we just vote Lib Dem from now on?

No. Greens are the only ones which have policies in place to help trans people. LibDems will be just as bad, if they aren't already.

Ok so I acutally went ahead and read their policy papers. From what is stated there Lib Dems' position is alright...?

Not saying that they are better than Greeens but it is at least a step up from Labour.

Thanks for sharing. I can't tell if they're for desegregation or not whereas I'm pretty sure the greens are. The LibDems don't use that language explicitly and doesn't seem to be exactly hinted at but maybe I'm not reading it correctly. But yeah, they don't seem as bad as I thought they might be... if they live up to their promises if they get in, that is.
