Clearly. We should probably also introduce some extra regulators whilst we're at it. That will probably help at the margin.

@andrew_lilico The obvious solution is higher taxes, more spending and higher immigration isn’t it ?

In an astonishing turn of events that no-one could have foreseen, it turns out that taxing the economy at the highest level for 80 years doesn't reduce the deficit. As economists are saying this morning, the obvious solution is that taxes must be raised further.

Seems straightforward. Starmer doesn't believe there's any such thing as what a woman *is*, simpliciter. He thinks there's only what a woman is legally. Before, he thought that included people with a penis. Now the Supreme Court has ruled it doesn't. So to him, that's the answer.

Jason Groves @JasonGroves1

No 10 today says Starmer no longer believes trans women are women, as he declared here when he was campaigning for the Labour leadership. But can't say when he changed his mind - or why

Seems optimistic, tbh. Not saying impossible - tech developments should be boosting developed economy growth. But the US could be much worse than that, dragging down others in the process. https://t.co/aPjOWh6iLX

IMO the law should not forbid trans people & non-trans people who ally with them from forming clubs together. If that makes me an obsolete 1990s liberal, then so be it.

Andrew Lilico @andrew_lilico

Let me ask two very direct questions: A) Is it currently legal to have a bridge club for women & transwomen only? B) Should that be legal?

*Is* that what the Supreme Court said, though? That's not the same thing at all as saying that single-sex spaces are for those of one biology. Why should it be any more illegal to have gender-based restrictions than politics or religion-based restrictions if that's what you want?

Constancia 🇮🇱 ♀️ @Ermentrude112

@andrew_lilico It's not legal to exclude a transman because biologically they are a woman. Why "should" it be? and more importantly, how "could" it be? No other definition is implementable, per the Supreme Court.

That's possible. Maybe Starmer doesn't believe there's any such thing as the "truth" of what a woman is, hence the *only* question regarding which there is a truth is the question of what the legal meaning of the term "woman" in such-&-such a piece of legislation is.

@andrew_lilico I doubt they believe in objective truth.
