    Really?
    Well, they can absolutely fuck right off, then 🤬

    Apparently "trans youngsters have not been forgotten" - no they've been kicked under the nearest fleet of buses. He really is a disingenuous shit.

    @IsabelB

    In the words of departed journalist Dawn Foster who knew Streeting at university when he was involved in the NUS: " He (Streeting) has always been a right-wing, lickspittle cunt ".

    Pink News are not much better with their 'both sides' shite.

            @IsabelB Pink News has been blasting Streeting for months. At the very least they need to explain their decision. This reminds me of the time Sen.Tom Cotton was invited to write a guest opinion piece in the New York Times in which he advocated the use of the military in suppressing protests against police brutality. At least that one resu;ted in the opinion editor being fired (though he is unapologetic to this day).

            @RachelThornSub @IsabelB their reasoning is simple, they just fired all the trans people working there.

                  @RachelThornSub @IsabelB https://www.wearequeeraf.com/pinknews-to-move-to-a-reporter-free-newsroom-with-its-journalists-facing-redundancy/

                  no more journalists. take a look at the credited authors this past week versus a couple months ago. it's wes streeting, two guys, and "pinknews contributor" which im pretty sure is code for slop.

                  given that senior pinknews staff have been transphobic in the recent past, i think we can just assume pinknews is an arm of transphobia now.

                          @imbl @IsabelB Thank you for this link. This is shocking. I just learned about the sexual harassment/assault allegations earlier today, and this article seems to make it clear that Pink News will henceforth be slop. What a loss.
