Until Monday, this was the same policy for Girl Guides (which is indeed the sister Organisation of Girl Scouts in the US).
Unfortunately guides were being hit with the threats of multiple legal cases and as such they have caved to the TERFs, under the guise of "legal advice" and "advice from their leaders" and "in order to comply with the Law Lords" etc etc.

Am I qiet at the moment? Unfortunately yes, as I have quite a nasty flu with all the trimmings!

A queen furry joined Ubuntu Forums, wrote an introduction and promptly had the word queer expunged from their introduction by the mods for being "sexual"

yes, I use GrapheneOS as my daily driver and you can use Google Services if you wish. You can also Sandbox them so that those services only interact with a limited set of other services.
In this, the way you set up your device is entirely in your hands and not that of your phone vendor or Google.
Also, you can get in touch with GrapheneOS here in the Fediverse 👇🏼

one way to bring certain cross benchers in would be via the Guilds. However, to accomplish something like that while bringing in, shall we call them MHPs for "Members of the House of Peers", via a form of jury service from all across the UK might require more than 600 peers, and I would also abolish the Lord's Spiritual as well as hereditary and life peers from sitting.
I would say service for four years for those from the guilds, staggered every two years, and those not from the guilds but from a jury intake for two years as you suggest.
Accommodation could be in an accommodation block, built especially for the purpose, perhaps in an existing military barracks.

the only people who can take a hit in increased taxes are the very and super wealthy. Indeed you could hit billionaires severely in terms of a percentage of income and they would still remain billionaires.
Why governments seem incapable of understanding this is lost on me, especially considering that I am not a mathematician.

Labour? Is this a new political party that I haven't heard about?

you are not alone. There are an awful lot of die hard leftist Labour supporters, who are generational supporters going right back to the birth of the party who have left due to the Red Fash Nazi Enable Comrade Starmlin.
He is a traitor to Socialism, assuming he ever was and not just a complete Quisling.

this may turn some, but as someone who escaped a cult, it won't be easy and not all will leave. Indeed most may not leave and call all the evidence "fake news".
From my perspective MAGA looks like a decentralised but very high control cult. It actually frightens me, even all the way out here why I live which is nigh half a planet away.

I am not entirely sure, but first principles should I think go to Marx, "To each according to their needs, and from each according their abilities".
I would have thought that with the kind of IT infrastructure we now have we can find a way to ensure equitable distribution for equitable contribution to society.
This doesn't mean that money as such has to come to a complete end, just that not everything will necessarily have to be exchanged for money.
Interestingly this has been postulated as how the fictional Federation in Star Trek operates.

Has anyone else noticed that the Transgender Portal seems to have been quietly removed from Wikipedia!?

either build new New Towns, or rebuild existing New Towns to take advantage of the latest in eco build standards, incorporate high quality non polluting public transport, and also have safe and usable walking and cycling infrastructure.
This is possible, as I lived in Basingstoke and had a shopping centre with everything I needed within walking distance yet this by today's standards would be considered a New Town built around the car, which is not entirely an incorrect assessment.
