So Kier Starmer has quit as prime minister...

It is official now... Prime minister Kier Starmer has quiet. I for one am glad. Him and the labour government have turned their backs on so many. The LGBTQIA+ community suffer at the hands of conversion therapy which the Conservatives and current Labour government have failed to ban. It is a disgrace! Then we have his pathetic abandonment of protecting rights for all those who are transgender, non-binary and intersex. I have been appalled by this Labour government. Even a group started entitled "LGB Labour". That tells you all you need to know! It is terrible. But still, Andy Burnham could become prime minister and I do not trust him either. Still, if you asked me for a preference over him or Reform UK's Rob Kenyon in this Makerfield election, then Burnham it is. He is lesser of two evils. Kenyon admitted he was sexist, made vile, misogynistic remarks about women getting abortions and other revolting misogynistic remarks about national treasure Carol Vorderman. Reform UK...

Pride - shwowing up and abandoning the community.

Going to pride events recently has made me realise one thing. Some people are there for the LGBTQIA+ community. There are a lot of celebrities who are allies to the LGBTQIA+ community. Earlier on in the month I visited Canterbury for their pride event because I liked it last year and they normally have some well known singers joining the main stage. Plus it is free! This year I got to witness Atomic Kitten's very own Natasha Hamilton. She was incredible!

Love and hate - a poem for pride month.

Today's blog post is a poem of mine. As June is pride month, I got thinking about all the love there is and all the hate there is in society. He loves, she loves, they love, ze loves. Going to pride, having a good time, lifting up our spirits when we need it the most. He loves, she loves, they love, ze loves. Going to pride, to protest against the monstrous men who are exceeding rich while being the biggest tax dodgers, hating everyone who goes against what they believe in. He loves, she loves, they love, ze loves. Going to pride, to remind us of how far the LGBTQIA+ community has come, the hate that one group of people has had to endure. But we keep saying no more. Some people love those who are LGBTQIA+, people of colour, people with a disability and Immigrants. Some people do not love the wealth hoarding tax dodgers, trying to cause division, discrimination and destruction as the whole country suffers. That is my poem, Love and hate. Until next time, Thomas (they/them).

Opinion piece: Why does it matter using people's pronouns?

Today's topic of the blog is about pronouns. I get sick of people moaning or complaining about pronouns as if they do not have any. It does make me question if they think about things. We all have pronouns - I, you, me, we, they, he, she, him, them, her, our for example. Personally, if you have a political agenda that stops you accepting what is a simple fact then maybe you want to rethink your political agenda.
