Here she explains why https://unherd.com/2020/11/why-i-had-to-leave-the-guardian/?=frlh Thanks for sharing that, it's a fascinating insight. I don't have the highest opinion of Moore, I think she's a thinly veiled misandrist, but it's illuminating how the Guardian has effectively shunted her out over trans rights issues. I'm on the Guardian side of that debate in truth, I think a lot of the pushback from feminists is coming from this idea that trans people are now coming to be seen as more 'hard done by' than women in their eyes - having said that, she absolutely should be able to make her views clear without 300+ colleagues denouncing her ffs. I won't miss her columns but I'm sorry to hear it ended in the way it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21801 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 i was struck by what she said about being censored more by the left than the right. "the left" in this country really has got itself into a bit of a pickle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"the left" in this country really has got itself into a bit of a pickle. Yes absolutely, the left has been far too intolerant of opposing views and dialogue for some time. I've fallen foul of it myself. It does sound though from another line she's put in there, that it's more pressure coming from Guardian US than it is from Guardian UK. And the left wing movement in the US over social justice issues is far more highly charged (rightly) than it is here. Another example perhaps of a 'broad church' organisation not really being able to live up to what it claims to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5164 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Starmer to back the government's Brexit deal if it manages to find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30221 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 That would be a mistake IMO. They shouldn’t vote against but voting for the deal means that when Starmer criticises the deal at any point over the next four years then the Tories are going to come back every time with ‘well you voted for it’. Abstaining wouldn’t be the best tactic to win back the ‘red wall’ but overall would be the safest option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably the red wall seats are more important than the ability to say 'I told you so' as far as Starmer is concerned. Suggests that in reality, they think Brexit had a much bigger influence on last year's election than they've let on. I think they're damned either way - this move will cost them votes too.

I'm open minded on this but has any evidence come to light that weighs in favour of one side or the other? It started with a New York Post article who published some of Hunter Biden’s emails on his allegedly dodgy dealings in the Ukraine. The article was quickly dismissed by left leaning publications as Russian disinformation propaganda without them having any evidence of this. I only really followed this through Taibi https://taibbi.substack.com/p/10-ways-to-call-something-russian As far as I’m aware Greenwald simply wanted to dig a bit deeper and find out whether there is any truth in the Post’s claims, but was discouraged by his editors on the basis, that pusuing the story would hurt the Biden campaign.
