At least 147 of the 378 Labour parliamentarians using the social media platform, formerly known as Twitter, are following the controversial 'gender-critical' pundit's account where she regularly posts her heavily controversial opinions on trans rights. This means 36 per cent of Labour's entire parliamentary caucus follows Rowling's main account.

As a series-length adaptation of Rowling's first novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the first season of the Harry Potter series will have a much larger canvas on which to tell its story. That means the reboot will contain some new additions - and according to Lox Pratt, who plays Potter's arch-rival, Draco Malfoy, in the series, those additions include more backstory for one of the most loathed characters in the Wizarding World.

Jackson will voice the role of Professor Trelawney, Martin will play journalist Rita Skeeter, and Nighy, who played Rufus Scrimgeour in the Harry Potter movies, will voice Professor Slughorn in the Audible series. Other stars announced yesterday (22 October) include David Holmes - who was a stunt double in the films - playing Stan Shunpike, Slow Horses star Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù as Sirius Black, The Office star Mackenzie Crook as Kreacher, comedian Stephen Mangan as Nearly Headless Nick, and EastEnders actress Tracy-Ann Oberman as Madam Hooch.

A representative told Rolling Stone that the story was categorically false and not in the realm of true. The band last played together in November 2019. Both the death of Christine McVie in 2022 and Lindsey Buckingham's earlier firing, in 2018, were assumed to have made any reunion impossible. Without Christine, no can do, Stevie Nicks told Mojo last year. There is no chance of putting Fleetwood Mac back together in any way. Without her, it just couldn't work.

The organisation wrote in a subsequent statement that this year's proceedings would be put on hold after the ceremony had been "overshadowed by hurt and anger", which, it said, had been "painful and distressing for all concerned." Officials pledged to undertake a review of its policies to better support LGBTQ+ authors and to "increase representation of trans and gender non-conforming judges."

During chat questions, users are prompted with a conversation opener and must pick the correct response. A screenshot of the prompt shows a person asking: " Magst du die Bücher mit Harry Potter als Figur? " which roughly translates to: "Do you like books with Harry Potter as a character?" The correct response translates to: "Yes, but in my opinion, the author is mean."

"It's time for women to vote with their wallets," the gender-critical author wrote. "If stores like M&S continue to flout the Supreme Court ruling on women-only spaces, prioritising the wishes of men who want to undress near, or help fit bras on teenage girls, a boycott seems appropriate."

During Pride in London, Girli wore a denim jumpsuit with the message "F**k JK Rowling" and "Trans Women Are Women" to express her stance on transgender rights.

The tech bros want to go to Mars, so we're sending them there. There's room on the rocket for a few more souls so they're being joined by Trump, Netanyahu, Vance, Farage and Rowling - just some of the people who in recent years made life on Earth more difficult for us.

In light of recent open letters from academia and the arts criticising the UK's Supreme Court ruling on sex-based rights, it's possibly worth remembering that nobody sane believes, or has ever believed, that humans can change sex.
