Cate Denial
I get the impression that some people aren't clear what this means. This is the UK state deciding to intervene directly in the healthcare of individual children, depriving them of medicine that their doctors have prescribed for their personal health & wellbeing, in defiance of global best practice.
there were already many reasons to do this but Elon Musk actively encouraging racist violence in Belfast should be the final straw for every UK government institution to stop doing business - including being on X - with him in any way, and for him to be barred from entry to the country.
And we need to call things what they are. It's not a protest. It's not a riot. What happened in Belfast is a pogrom. The racists feel legitimised and this is going to keep happening unless and until senior political figures develop a spine.
Not just Reform - this had the full-throated support of Musk last night.
