The 2019 Labour manifesto included a pledge to "Ensure that the single-sex-based exemptions contained in the Equality Act 2010 are understood and fully enforced in service provision." Which was plainly a dog whistle for exactly what the EHRC is doing right now.

I’ve been a Green for over a decade - we absolutely have always been - see this from our 2015 GE manifesto.
(Pages 71-2).

I just noticed the giant fat statue of Ukma in the garden. Lovely touch!

The 2019 Labour Manifesto was derided by MSM despite being fully costed, and nowhere did it promise £37 billion for a useless phone app... ucrel.lancs.ac.uk/wmatrix/ukma...

The manifesto was fully costed - you should read it:

Long-standing Green Party policy - e.g. see page 42 of their 2015 General Election manifesto.

People really should look at e.g. our 2015 General Election manifesto - the same principles, vision and (relative to the state of the world) policies then as now.

I was lucky enough to see #MarkRadcliffe and #DaveBoardman play live at #WhatstandwellFestival yesterday. They were brilliant, just effortlessly engaging. If you get the chance, go see them!

The Department for Transport introduced #metric restriction signs way back in 1981.

43 years later, and counting, why do imperial-only signs still even exist?

32 years ago, when I was on #ukma with peeps like @rhodri.biz and @scissorkicks.bsky.social , I started routinely using emoticons like :-) and :-P

I've been typing that weird shit for over thirty years.

How weird is that?

The world is weird and old.

And so am I.

Actually, NASA did use the metric system when they put a man on the Moon.

#OTD 56 years ago, 👨‍🚀 man first landed on the Moon 🌑

MYTH: NASA didn't use the #metric system to go to the Moon

FACT: The Lunar Module’s onboard Apollo Guidance Computer used SI units during the computer-controlled phases of the craft’s descent to the Moon

For a TV show @qi.com in 2025 to be using #inches to measure a wavelength in the millimetre-to-metre range is #QuiteInteresting.

FUN FACT: Since the first UK radio stations began broadcasting in the 1920s, wavelengths have been given in #metres.

The UK Government did originally intend that speed limits would switch to km/h in 1973.

But all plans were put on hold in 1970.

bsky.app/profile/metr...
#OnThisDay #OTD 56 years ago, Minister of Transport Richard Marsh announced plans to switch road 🚗 speed limit signs to kilometres per hour.

"We propose, subject to further consultation, that speed limits should become #metric in 1973."

Having been a Green since 2013, we have always campaigned for a socially just and environmentally sustainable world - e.g. see our 2015 General Election manifesto.

Er, no - this is long-standing Green Party policy, e.g. from the 2015 General Election manifesto (page 7):
“Respect immigrants for the contribution they make and control immigration fairly.”
Zack is just really good at articulating Green Party policy.
