Important decisions were made at today's branch meeting! We chose our Election Oversight Committee reps, voted to turn the branch into a Regional Association, and decided not to stand branch candidates for Holyrood 2026. Thanks to all members who joined us today to shape the future of our branch!

The FWS legal challenge attacking trans women’s right to be held in women’s prisons is dangerous and dehumanising. Trans women are women, and denying their safety is a violation of basic human rights. We condemn this legal review as the latest assault on trans people's civil rights and dignity.

The text denounces the case as transphobic, warns that placing trans women in men’s prisons violates human rights, and expresses solidarity with trans people. A news headline about the court case appears at the bottom.

Bombing a sovereign nation and kidnapping the President is the behaviour of a cowboy state. The United States’ attack on Venezuela is illegal — and it is utterly shameful that the UK government refuses to condemn this reckless act of war.
