      The way the equality act has been used to scam Birmingham and Glasgow City Councils in order to pay council employees £billions of public money should scandalise a lot more people than it has done. Birmingham is still suffering through the bin men being on strike because of this bullshit. The earlier this is repealed, the better.

      I was feeling really alienated by Starmer and the Labour government for some while. However, now Morgan McSweeney has gone, I’m starting to really like Starmer’s new found confidence on, and robust defence of Centre and Centre-Left politics and policy, as well as robustly and firmly challenging and calling out up to Farage and Reform U.K.’s toxic politics and policy.

      ‘Labour’s Equalities Act, passed in 2010, contains legal protections against discrimination on the basis of gender, sexuality, race, religion or disability.’

      Very difficult to argue for repealing any of that.

      As regards Suella:-

      ‘Braverman’s details on the No5 Chambers website state that she “is a contributor to Philip Kolvin QC’s book Gambling for Local Authorities, Licensing, Planning and Regeneration”. The Observer had questioned this in 2020 and, in October 2022, The Big Issue reported Kolvin saying that she “did not make a written or editorial contribution to the book”, but simply “on one occasion I asked her to do some photocopying for the book”. Braverman’s parliamentary office, the Home Office and No5 Chambers all declined to comment, but the claim was removed from the website after The Big Issue had enquired.’

      Embarrassing…

      Meanwhile I see people arguing that it is good to repeal the equality act since there are poor white men. The state of the country, smh…

      The ‘anti-woke’ crowd seen to have completely lost the plot of what they’re even complaining about at this point.

      I feel like at some point the idea was ‘sometimes EDI goes too far and becomes harmful’ which I think is something a lot of people have some degree of sympathy with to varying degrees.

      We’re so far past that now though, to the point that their position seems entirely to be ‘anything good is actually bad’, and equality isn’t seen as a noble aim that sometimes goes too far, its seen as inherently a bad thing.

      Which is both insane, and completely undercuts any of the more moderate and seemingly sane ‘anti-woke’ arguments.
