Fuck the EHRC. “protecting service users from discrimination and harassment”, except for the trans people this guidance explicitly targets, forcing them into spaces where they face a greater risk of discrimination, harassment, and abuse. The EHRC is not fit for purpose.
The EHRC’s new Code of Practice comes into force today. It encourages the segregation of trans people from society and pushes many into spaces where they may face a greater risk of harassment and abuse. (1/4)
The High Court has refused a challenge to the PATHWAYS puberty blockers trial. Another defeat for the TERFs When the Cass Review was published, those behind this challenge claimed to support full implementation of the recommendations; such hypocrisy. www.landmarkchambers.co.uk/news-and-cas...

This is what happens when you have the backing of a billionaire: a human rights organisation is coerced into apologising for criticising the anti-rights agenda and abusive conduct of anti-trans organisations. www.amnesty.org.uk/latest/an-ap...

Yesterday, we said goodbye to my Nan. She was an absolute force of nature and I wouldn’t be the person I am today without her. My tribute to her was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write, because there’s no words that can convey how loved she made us feel. Nan, you were the best 💜
See my complaint to the Charity Commission about LGB Alliance’s campaign. Screening out people who don’t support the organisation & promoting results as though they reflected wider LGB opinion fails their duty to present evidence accurately & not mislead the public.
Progress. From 2018 to now after follow a solid plan for almost a year. I’m so proud of how far I’ve come and can’t wait to see how much further I can go.
Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".
Racism, transphobia and homophobia are not protected characteristics; nor should expressing such views be free from consequences If your ‘belief’ relies on denying someone else’s humanity, it’s not a right; it’s a prejudice.
M&S have responded to our letter regarding the complaint about a supposedly trans employee. Yet more evidence that anti-trans obsessives lied about the incident to stoke hostility towards trans people. We all have a duty to tackle such mis(dis)information to protect our community.

Our letter to Marks and Spencer is now live. Please share to show your support for all trans & gender non-conforming employees. We will not bow to pressure from anti-trans obsessives & lobby groups. Trans people pose no inherent risk to anyone and deserve basic dignity & respect in the workplace.

If anything, this manufactured M&S trans panic lays bare the absurdity & cruelty of anti-trans obsessives. Spreading wilful misinformation about a non-incident to criminalise an innocent worker simply for appearing to be trans is both disgraceful and dangerous.
If anyone has any contacts at Marks & Spencer to whom we can send our letter, please get in touch.

Rumour has it, if you open a packet of Percy Pigs, JK Rowling appears, calls you a predator and arrests you.
JK Rowling threatened to sue a 20-something twitter user with 200 followers for comparing her ideology to the Taliban. (I've seen the threatening letter her US lawyers sent myself. It's what caused me to throw out my HP books).
Chris Scott (he/him) @chrisdonia.bsky.social · 12mo agoI'm sorry, how many times has JK set lawyers on people because they criticised her?
A great statement, we need to put pressure on Stonewall, LGBT Foundation and others to follow this lead. They will not do so unless they are pushed. Emails time!

🚨 We’re disgusted, but not surprised. Labour has now fully sided with anti-trans voices. Bridget Phillipson just appointed gender-critical Dr Mary-Ann Stevenson as EHRC chair ignoring both human rights committees. The UK isn’t safe, it’s time to take this fight to the governments door!

The way anti-trans obsessives speak about trans people is disgusting, & it’s deeply troubling how this hateful rhetoric goes unchallenged. They dehumanise, demonise, & deliberately spread lies to advance an agenda rooted in harm. We need more influential allies to speak out-now.
It’s not about trans inclusion in sport. That’s a separate, albeit linked, issue. There will be people confusing that to make transphobic or political points today. Don’t fall for the propaganda.
