"We announce plans to depoliticise science," they said, while politisising science.
NEW: Conservatives are safeguarding scientific research from the denial of biology and the steady creep of political correctness. @michelledonelan announces plans to depoliticise science at #CPC23

This is like being mugged and then the mugger using your phone to write a Letter to the Editor bemoaning rising crime rates.
I'm back in the @Telegraph with a longer Saturday piece. I fear for the future of Britain. We're getting used to mediocrity. Britain can do better than that - but we need our leaders to lead. telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/09…

Remember what "cutting red tape" means. It's not just a mindless slogan. It means we get dirtier rivers and beaches. It means we lose woodland and green spaces.
I want to see more homes built. It's also what local communities want. But sometimes hangover EU laws get in the way. It's not right. So I'm cutting the red tape to unlock thousands of new homes and I’m stepping up action to protect our environment.

Don't worry, Nadine Dorries isn't taking thousands of pounds of public money and holding tens of thousands of constituents to ransom to do nothing. She's doing it to save the hedgehogs
Taxi for this little lady after a call from wildlife hospital to say she was ready to return to the wild. A patient for 4 weeks after we dropped her off full of fleas, ticks and lung infection. I have so many visitors down at the feeders, but she was a super memorable cutie.

Imagine all the strides that would have gone unmade without disruptive protest. From suffrage to ending fracking. Were the suffragettes the baddies?
I’ll translate: Fuck protests, fuck your rights we’ve stolen them from you & fuck anyone who thinks that they have the right to protest because you don’t. Police numbers have been increased so that the Govt can subjugate the people fuck all you peasants🤷‍♂️

No worries. Just a member of the public openly advocating banning all demonstrations regarding the nature of our government. How far we've fallen.

Now the #coronation is over, I wonder whether the right will stop talking about arresting protesters for disrespecting the king and get back to complaining about cancel culture and free speech?

"Britain is a proud bastion of freedom and liberty". "What's that?" "Oh, it's just a statement from the police, who have spent the day arresting peaceful protesters without giving reasons pledging allegiance to an unelected, hereditary head of state". "... "
Congratulations to Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla on their Coronation #GodSaveTheKing We swear that we will pay true allegiance to his Majesty, and to his heirs and successors according to law. #Coronation

google.com/amp/s/amp.theguar… Don't worry, this is good authoritarianism, not bad authoritarianism. “Empowering people to come together, freely, openly and demonstrating security can be a liberator, not like in authoritarian states, where it is a controller".... @TomTugendhat

From @FT on the huge voter suppression implications of the rushed and expensive voter-ID requirement.

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.
