Trump, who knows he's going to lose both the NY civil fraud case & the upcoming defamation case brought by E. Jean Carroll has turned to rage-tweeting against the judges, behavior that is unacceptable from anyone, let alone a man who wants to be president again.…

Sexual harassment cost women more than just the job they're hounded out of - West Midlands Police robbed Rebecca Kalam of a whole career with a pension and future earnings.

The employment judge was absolutely right to make the compensation reflect these losses.

The Home Secretary joked about date raping women and his defence is that journalists shouldn’t have reported it because it was a private conversation in number 10 (at a seemingly well attended reception). Good a journalist had the gumption to report it theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

Reeling from fact that James Cleverly🇬🇧 thinks it’s hilarious to joke about putting “a little bit of rohypnol” in his wife’s drink every night because it’s “not really illegal if it’s only a little bit”.

The actual Home Secretary, joking about date rape.

Staggeringly awful.

No Sultan Al Jaber, phasing out 19th Century technologies does not take us back to the Stone Age, but into the 21st Century. If we *don't* phase out fossil fuels, we will be living in caves. theguardian.com/environment/20…
