I've still not had my 28 days notice yet but I also haven't found a bungalow I can afford to rent in the area where my disabled children can still go to their colleges, also still not won (or played) the lottery

Does anyone know anyone with an empty property in Southport? This is a cry for help.

Dyke and others around it. A black carabiner. A bottle of poppers. Some scissors and a pink dildo all on a pink card background.

@nhsengland.bsky.social destroyed kids lives by forceably detransitioning them.

This should be front page news (It won't be of course).

Please share this widely.

Is NHSE forcing young people to detransition?
The minutes of a meeting, leaked to NWBylines, strongly indicate NHSE does not want the prescribing of puberty blockers at WellBN to continue

UK health officials urge extra precautions, including wearing a mask if you have symptoms, as 4 winter viruses spread: RSV, Flu, COVID and Norovirus.

Source: archive.md/z6uDK
A Manchester Evening News article headline reads: “UKHSA says ‘wear a mask’ as four viruses spread in UK.” The subheading notes that health officials expect “further increases” in winter virus levels as colder months arrive. The article is written by Bethan Finighan and dated November 21, 2025 at 16:08. Below the headline is a photograph of a woman standing on a train platform. She has blonde hair and is wearing a white medical mask and a coat with a fur collar. A blurred train is visible behind her. A caption beneath the image says that people with symptoms of winter viruses are encouraged to wear a face covering.

Hey, remember when Dr. Cass, Wes Streeting and Louis Appleby all lied and said that Labour's gender affirming care ban didn't cause suicide?

Evidence has now emerged of the adverse consequences of the laws banning GAHT for trans youth in both the US and UK. This includes sharp declines in mental health and increased suicide attempts among transgender young people.

Britt is already accessing everything that IS accessible but the main issue is the wheels of social support turn FAR SLOWER than the immediacy of Britt's needs.

Ergo #MutualAid is required to fill the gap. If this angers you, VOTE ABOUT IT, but for right now, PLEASE HELP 💜

Sex Matters and Falkner having major strop at Phillipson’s refusal to rubber stamp their joint ‘guidance’.
What’s laughable is SM’s 7,893 signatures. I’ve just checked the Not In Our Name website and they’re already up to 65,208!

This is part of our The law is clear - so get on with it! campaign | 25th November 2025 Why won't the minister withdraw the code of practice? Services, public functions and associations Statutory Code of Practice This code creates legal risk and should be withdrawn seXmatters Sex Matters has been calling for the government to deal with misunderstanding and misrepresentation of the Equality Act since 2020. Much of the problem goes back to bad guidance published by the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) in 2011. In 2021, 7,893 people joined us in signing a letter to the Committee on Standards in Public Life calling for a public inquiry into the adoption of "Stonewall Law" by public institutions. On 3rd June 2021 the story got into the news. Stonewall defended its approach, saying that it was: "confident in our advice on the Equality Act which is based on the Equality and Human Rights Commission's Equality Act Code of Practice." Now, finally, following the Supreme Court judgment in the For Women Scotland case, the EHRC has admitted that its code of practice for service providers is wrong in law, and has urged the Minister for Women and Equalities to revoke it before it does any more damage. We wrote to Baroness Falkner, chair of the EHRC, to ask why its outdated and legally wrong code had not been withdrawn, following her 16th October letter to the minister. Baroness Falkner replied to us saying that the minister has refused to act: "I can confirm that we received a response from the Minister for Women and Equalities on 11 November. This states that it is not her intention to revoke the 2011 Code before the new Code of Practice is published. The reason given is that the 2011 Code addresses a broad range of issues for service providers, beyond those relating to sex and gender reassignment. Therefore, a gap would leave service providers, individuals and the courts without statutory guidance across all protected characteristics for an unknown period of time." Equality and Human Rights Commission Maya Forstater Sex Matters By email only From: Baroness Kishwer Falkner, Chairwoman Our ref: 20251119Forstater Wednesday 19 November 2025 Dear Maya Forstater, Thank you for your email of 17° November, requesting that the EHRC withdraws the 2011 Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations. We share your concerns about the current Code being out of date, which is why we wrote to the Minister for Women for and Equalities on 15 October. In our letter we asked for the revocation of the 2011 version of the code, as it is now unreliable in various respects. I can confirm that we received a response from the Minister for Women and Equalities on 11 November. This states that it is not her intention to revoke the 2011 Code before the new Code of Practice is published. The reason given is that the 2011 Code addresses a broad range of issues for service providers, beyond those relating to sex and gender reassignment. Therefore, a gap would leave service providers, individuals and the courts without statutory guidance across all protected characteristics for an unknown period of time. The Minister also stated that she wants to ensure a smooth transition from one Code to the next and that removing the 2011 Code now would cause more confusion, instability and lack of clarity for service providers and individuals. Thank you for raising your concerns with us. I hope this response clarifies our position on this issue. Yours sincerely.

And finally, today, one year after launching my first LGBTree pride pin to help fund transition, I'm launching another tree!

This time the trees are decorated for Christmas as part of my winter pin drop!

canopyrobin.etsy.com/listing/4405...
A christmas tree pin with a trans star on top and six stripes of glittery rainbow tinsel. Printed onto the tree are a lesbian robin and a pansexual candy cane, plus gay, genderfluid, genderqueer, nonbinary, bisexual, aromantic, agender, progress pride, asexual, and intersex baubles The same but the tree is white with a snow effect and the tinsel is pink and blue to make it the trans flag
