The Council of Europe has warned that the UK gov’s treatment of trans people may breach human rights law.
This must be a wake up call.
We’ve seen an increase in hostility towards trans in recent years.
Everyone deserves dignity, safety, & respect - that includes trans people.

Ming Campbell was one of the most influential Lib Dems of the last few decades - his opposition to the Iraq War inspired a whole generation of Lib Dems to join, and his allyship on LGBT+ matters was always both strong, and appreciated.
He was also remarkably kind. We will miss him.

"This prize acknowledged an exceptional woman in Cllr Chris Northwood. The message it sends to women members and voters is that the Liberal Democrats honour and value all of our women members."

This by @jonnelledge.bsky.social is great at explaining why empty homes aren’t the solution to the housing supply crisis.
