“Participation in the organisation’s AGM hit record levels this year” - Nice! I saw on Mastodon some discussion about how it was actually important this year.
Attempted right-wing takeover of National Trust backed by Nigel Farage fails!

I think we have been in the NT for about 12 years. I have voted twice. That was for the last two years.

The way these people complain about the ““woke agenda”” reminds me of antisemitic conspiracy theories about Jews secretly being in control at every level of society. The banks are woke, the government is woke, industry is woke, charities are woke, NGOs are woke, the church is woke, etc etc.
It’s absolute dogshit.

I heard that woke figures in key positions meet at their secret woke clubhouse where they discuss their woke evil plans on controlling the world and making everyone woke.
Honestly I want to start the secret society of woke, not because I expect it to get a single influential member, but because just existing will make every right wing nutter blame every single thing on the secret woke society 😄

Not seen this before. Nice neologism!

I’m lefty as fuck but I don’t think it’s appropriate to use the guardian to describe a “right wing takeover”. Guardian can be as biased as the daily mail on most days

So you will contort your ideas to be neutral even if truth is biased?

This isn’t a Guardian article, unless I’m missing something?
