This week, our beleaguered hosts Alyx, Ashleigh and Flint look with a critical eye over:
- Some welcome good news from Montana, USA.
- A brief look at who else but the EHRC.
- A certain US pick-me on the cusp of realising that her collaboration will not save her.
- Quickly checking in with the people absolutely having a normal one over at Sex Matters.
- Lining up a Telegraph article for a roast.
- As the title suggests, for our Meat this time we’re taking a dip in the waters of Stonewall bay, after their announcement of their upcoming new Chair, Kezia Dugdale and the extremely questionable remarks Dugdale made about a certain author of derivative wizard fiction.
