The neoclassical style of Oxford is perfectly counterposed to the brutalism of Leeds. The former embodies the aristocratic privilege it is set up to reproduce. Leeds embodies the postwar social democratic spirit of the cradle-to-grave welfare state providing education for all

The current transphobic moral panic in the UK is being propagated by the worst collection of arch-reactionaries; conservatives, religious fundamentalists, anti-abortion activists, and self-described fascists. And yet some on the left think they can give a feminist veneer to it

Violence against women is wrong, full stop. Encouraging people to punch “terfs” in the face, esp when cheered by hundreds (as happened at Trans Pride) should worry us all. That many on the left look away is indicative of a fearful culture,silencing many basic feminist principles.

Happy Valentines Day to all the comrades who make life truly worthwhile. Though I’m not romantically involved with anyone, I value and appreciate all my friends in the socialist movement deeply, and I don’t think there’s a better word to sum that up than love 🌹🥰🚩

@helensclegel This guy’s account is literally just retweets of Tory MPs and the editor of the Sun, i.e. the someone who should never be judging whether someone is fit to be in the Labour Party
