Trans rights are human rights.

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.
Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots.

I won't apologise for comparing "gender critical" extremists like Joyce with fascists.
She may not regard herself as fascist, but the manifestation of her beliefs is fascist-adjacent and I doubt you'll find a bona fide fascist, anywhere, who'd disagree with them.
Speaking, walking, quacking etc.

Nothing will satisfy the transphobes other than the complete eradication of trans people from society.
Helen Joyce, of Sex Matters, is quite open about this when she's speaking to fellow transphobes. There are receipts.
We know from history that you don't compromise with fascists, you defeat them.

If Linehan can call that child a sissy, AGP, and misgender her, and be found not guilty of harassment, then I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL to not give a hoot about legal threats from GCs for "libeling" them when you point out that they're nazi-adjacent bigots, funded by the American right. Oh, and nonces.

One of the interesting things (to me) about the transphobe-led assault on appropriate healthcare for trans kids is the complete disregard for lived experience.
Like many trans people of my generation, I went through childhood and adolescence with no support.

If Farage wants to lay this to rest, he has a very simple solution open to him - sue.
But he won't.
Because he knows what the outcome will be.

I totally agree with this👇🏼
Even though I’m white, I find the flags intimidating because of the tribalism that goes with the racism of those who put them up.. I’m not in their tribe, so I’m the enemy..
Case in point is council workers getting threatened when they are removing them 🤷🏼♂️

More than half of ethnic minority Brits say the England flag has now become a racist symbol, with Brits of all colours now tending to say the raising of the flag is mostly about expressing anti-migrant, or anti ethnic-minority sentiment

If the government leave X, where will they get their policy ideas from?
Given that Grok, X’s AI tool, is now posting holocaust-denial commentary on X, I’d say we should well beyond the casual-review-but-do-nothing stage of investigation and moving swiftly on to legal challenges and all govt accounts/responsible media leaving X immediately.
🚨 Labour MPs are calling for a minister-led review of the government’s use of X, warning it poses growing risks to democracy and public safety
@politicshome.bsky.social understands a review is currently being carried out by officials, but without ministerial oversight

Another big obsession with the far right is Cancel Culture. Cancel Culture happens when someone knowingly says something racist or extreme. Their agent, publisher etc drop them so as not to damage their brands. Yet here we have an apologist for child abuse & she won’t even be impacted.
