A first I believe...

By way of example, Baxter said the school’s most recent speaker had been Joanna Williams, the right-wing author of Women vs Feminism.

“The kind of debate which Joanna’s visit gave rise to was one where students were able to discuss issues of sexism and gender in an environment where they would not be criticised for the ‘wrong’ use of language,” he said. “This does not mean that inappropriate language is permitted – as this is checked and modelled when students are much younger.

“Rather, in a world where notions of ‘left’ and ‘right’ are confused and where there are debates about language and identity, we believe it necessary that students understand that these are now important issues and they will be allowed to explore these debates in such a way that they are prepared for the debates which are currently prominent in many universities.”
Might be the first time that anyone has acknowledged what has been obvious for years - that Spiked are libertarian right wingers....and that explains the second bit in bold.

Perhaps more important, that cabinet sub committee concedes European Court of Justice could have role in enforcing rights of 3m EU migrants in Britain after Brexit. This will be seen by EU as big shift by UK, but more ardent Brexiteers will hate.

"" With everyone losing the will to live, the committee moved on to the Irish border. What plans did they have for that?

For once, the civil servants had a clear answer. They had done absolutely nothing.

In a situation where the government had made no progress and literally anything could happen, the best bet was to hibernate – the government of idiots, administered by idiots on behalf of a country they took for idiots.""

Not that the opposition matters,but the three line whip to support the Tories tonight was pretty grim. 29 Labour MPs defied.

Vote for an anti-Brexit party.

I understand. Basically you have no good choice. Horrible Brexit or Awful Brexit.

It is like Bernard Williams' famous parable of Jim and the Indians. You'd shoot one as the lesser evil.

Don't be part of wrongdoing.

Don't vote for a Brexit party, even if one is slightly more Remainy than the other.That kind of calculation is wrong.
