Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

offsite link Why All Parents Should Protest Against the Children?s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Tue Feb 11, 2025 18:14 | Elizabeth Dulley
Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest against this state power grab.

The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

Deirdre Clancy gave the rest of her testimony, followed by Nuin Dunlop. The junior prosecutor bored the jury while he made insinuations about Ms. Clancy's religious beliefs, the existence of a ringleader in the group, and hidden desires to get arrested. The senior prosecutor tried to portray Ms. Dunlop as not having thought the action through very well. Both ladies explained quite well the real context and motives of their action, from what they knew of the impending shock and awe, and the concerns for the people in Iraq.
After lunch Cathy Kelly of Voices in the Wilderness and former UN Asst Secretary-General Denis Halliday testified as to what they had told the defendants about the situation in Iraq when they attended a peace conference in Kildare shortly before the action. Both of them related the first hand experience of the hard realities of Iraqi life to the jury as they had done to the defendants. This report is not verbatim, and is based on notes taken in court. read full story / add a comment
