Well, well, well, just as expected, there’s a lot more buried in the Appleby Report and the ICO. I’m now demanding Wes Streeting’s department explain what the meow they thought they were doing by redacting parts of the witness statement.

1. On Tuesday Night, Democrats won elections nationwide in a stunning rebuke of anti-transgender politics. From Virginia to New Jersey to New York and beyond, anti-trans candidates fell left and right after spending tons of time and money campaigning on hate. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line. 1/

Tommy Robinson / Stephen Yaxley-Lennon using the same argument as Maya Forstater? How closely intertwined are transphobia and the far right going to get?

The "trans" story so far in the UK... The entire anti-LGBT extremist movement knows that misgendering trans people causes extreme distress and even suicide, so they went to the Supreme Court to mandate that the entire country must, by law, misgender literally every trans person in the country.

Been back on prog for 24 hours and I've already had some bloke silly grinning at my boobs. In a garden centre 🤷‍♀️ Anyway the right-wing wet dream might be to ship me off to a conversion therapy camp or something, but I'm going to have fucking fabulous tits when I get there

Out on a Friday night with @divinegoth.bsky.social to see X-mal Deutschland & The Psychedelic Furs @ Barrowlands 😱

What's it like inside your head?

Disastrous for both Labour and Tory parties; the Westminster political class with it's mutualistic relationship with the media and establishment, and it's disconnect from the rest of the country, is becoming irrelevant

Losing words in vocabulary for exacly how bad today has been for the Equality and Human Rights Commission, Baroness Falkner, her incoming replacement and for the Gender Critical Ideological Movement of the UK who are strangely subdued. Cannot think why. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

🚨 Joint Statement This formal challenge to the EHRC’s fitness for purpose has been brought by @transactualuk.bsky.social, @amnestyuk.bsky.social k.bsky.social and @transsolidarity.bsky.social Together they have reported the EHRC to the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI)

The research shows Trans women athletes align to c1s women. Here are 51 studies (6,434 participants), demonstrating that, there are no significant differences in upper/lower-body strength or VOpeak after 1–3 years of GAHT between trans & c1s women. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

when trans people take HRT to feel normal: “look at these depraved sex freaks performing their sick fetish in public, we should bully them out of existence” when cis ppl take HRT so they can fuck real good:

Assuming trans people's physiology based on our birth certificates is potentially unsafe

This smells of the gender recognition panel testing their power and influence. This is a gross abuse of power. The gender recognition panel should be abolished.

Aside from the senseless cruelty from our so called Human Rights body, The absurdity of requiring that every UK business seeks legal advice on how & whether they should attempt to segregate Trans people. What a monumental waste of money, time & resources to spend on lawyers.

Tuesday: Shabana Mahmood attacks an international human rights body for pointing out the UK is likely breaching its legal obligations to trans people. Wednesday: five months after publishing transphobic legal guidance the EHRC, a month before it has to defend it in court, takes it down.

Today's treats when I get up are an hour of exercise, several hours of particularly tedious work, then an "every couple of weeks when we remember" dilation Related: I haven't got up yet

I used to think that the UK had a better judicial system than the USA with it's blatant politicisation. I assumed our judges would rule 'without fear or favour' on the basis of accumulated law As an out trans woman, living under a hostile government and a belligerent media, I no longer think that

The legal equivalent of picking up the grenade they threw at us and hurling it right back at them. Superb 👏

"Trans rights are human rights" was never just a chant metro.co.uk/2025/10/14/t...

There's a common sense argument, as well as an ethical one, to not letting terfs into your movement. They will destroy it if you let them, and FiLiA let them…

Dependable service! 😂

TERF bullies clash with what they themselves tell us is typical male violence. Are these people really safe around women and girls? JUST ASKING QUESTIONS

Currently sat in the heart of the West Midlands, partly waiting for a car to be fettled but mainly struggling to hold in my childhood accent :)

This is the kind of full and unequivocal defense trans people deserve to hear from more candidates for office

If she'd been married and lied about being single or if she'd been a convicted abuser and lied about that she would not be going to jail. People lie all the time before sex, during sex and after sex. If you're trans, that's a crime.

BREAKING: BASH BACK TARGET FiLiA ANTI-TRANS CONFERENCE The conference, whose alumni include J.K. Rowling, this year hosts hate groups LGBAlliance and Transgender Trend, along with the director of Scottish Lesbians, one of the groups responsible for April's segregationist Supreme Court ruling.

Ofcom took *six months* to decide to take no action after thousands complained about this very blatant breach of broadcasting standards by GB News. But perhaps the real surprise is that they investigated it at all… /1 www.thepinknews.com/2025/10/06/g...

I want non trans people to watch this and understand these waits aren’t by accident they’re by intent / design.

What comes after the Musk stuff is much more important ❤

This amazing article from @vic-parsons.bsky.social via @wearequeeraf.com shows the absolute criminal state of trans healthcare in the UK. Scotland has a 224 year wait for a first appointment. Yes, you read that right. www.wearequeeraf.com/gender-clini...

I hope people understand just how horrifying this is as a trans person. You could just be getting in with your life, not doing anything to hurt anyone - and suddenly you find yourself dragged into a horrible legal case where the press is painting your going to the toilet as somehow predatory.

On Friday 18 blue state attorneys general BLASTED the Federal Trade Commission, telling it to back off trans youth healthcare and warning of an insidious attempt to reshape the regulation of medicine in the US. And nobody covered it. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

This ScotGov guidance will facilitate the bullying and segregation of an already marginalised group. Like trans kids don't have enough at their door. Trans kids are not second class, not a threat, and they need to be allowed to flourish, not boxed away.

Other half is looking at full size chainsaws. Going to be nice to her for a bit 😬

Day 2 of hedging, and I did the public facing side, but nobody threw stones so we're all good Well I say good but we're aching pretty much everywhere now. Have concluded that privet hedge is transphobic and should be cancelled immediately

We've done a quarter of the hedge cutting and I'm already absolutely knackered Possibly the only time I rue having a zero testosterone count. I know a little T can be beneficial and I could try my GP, but it'd be explaining everything to a new Dr again with all the risk to my E that entails 😞

Ok ok I'm up 😭

It's hedge cutting week. We're making a cracking start by not getting out of bed because it's cold 💪

I have come to the conclusion the EHRC guidance on single sex spaces should not even come to Parliament. It is misleading and has caused distress for my trans constituents. I urge @bphillipsonMP to reject it on grounds of practicality and human rights. sianberry.org.uk/publications/l…

Questions for Kier Starmerfront on ID cards - will it omit sex/gender? - will it be delivered by a UK company? - with data held only in the UK? - and the (meta) data won't be sold? - and the (meta) data won't be available to other phone apps? And a parliamentary vote needed to change anything?

Won Euromillions! I am outta here! Goodbye terf island! Goodbye fascists! wait, getting a call Yep. £2.40. Gets me to the next town? Almost. Right. Aye. I'm not running! Staying to fight lads! 💪 😐

Love the opportunity to get up at 5am on the weekend. Oh why couldn't the government ban me from doing *this*? 😐

We will not comply with segregation.

Absolutely spot on - and also completely in line with their essential purity/taboo ideas of sex. Tale as old as time: this kind of sex is dirty, but I want it, therefore the dirt 'belongs' to the object of desire, who can be sectioned off and disposed of as contaminated, while I remain clean.

"We only hurt you because we care"
