When those who hate trans people win - or pretend to win, cf Sandie Peggie - it's all over the media, even if it's just a tribunal decision. But when they lose, even in the Court of Appeal, it's absolute bloody tumbleweed. So here's our blog about Allison Bailey latest loss. goodlaw.social/3uyd

Small things that cheer me up when I’m sad: 1) there’s a Welsh cheese called Pantys gawn-sounds as tho it lost its undercrackers 2) the 80 yr old 🎄 bauble in the photo 3) the emotional support axolotl eldest daughter crocheted for me 4) the fossils shown, most of which younger daughter & I found

If there wasn’t the demand for the food the food banks would not exist. This question is embarrassingly bad.

The countdown is on: 100 days till we march. Will you be there? togetheralliance.org.uk

No wonder we are one of the most nature-depleted corners of this battered planet, with #biodiversity in a parlous state

Satellite images mapped the horror in El Fasher — from the preparations to the burning of bodies — yet the world failed to intervene. We must break the script for future massacres and protect those still at risk. #AtrocityPrevention #Sudan

I truly believe that when it comes down to it the people of this country are good people. They don’t want others to fail, to suffer, to die. A tiny, ‘elite’, minority want to cause division and hate but there is an alternative. Together we can keep hope strong for everyone.

We deserve better than this

Loved teaching a great bunch of home ed families about owl’s digestive system. Plus I get to make cool props like this and make fake pellets out of weetabix!

If your choice is between an existential risk to your organisation, vs being a fascist collaborator, and you make the difficult choice to be a collaborator... ...then you are still a collaborator.

Seems there has been some co-ordination. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

On day 2 of #ArtAdventCalendar, we open the little door to find… oak leaves. I love their shapes. I love that native oaks support so much life. #watercolor #illustration #artyear

Allow transgender women and girls back into GirlGuiding UK Transgender girls deserve a safe, nurturing space where they can learn, grow, and contribute to the community, just like anyone else. Sign the petition... 👇

Starting to see a narrative (again) that it was "asking for self id" that brought the backlash against trans folk. I disagree, and there are a few reasons why. 1/n

Standing Together also includes trans and LGBT people. The far right uses the same dehumanising language and ‘divide and conquer’ playbook. Don’t let trans people be left out in the cold! 👉 notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

"What are Labour going to do to change my life?" Green Party Co-Deputy Leader & Councillor @mothinali.bsky.social discusses Labour's failure of working class communities, and how Greens are taking the fight to Reform by offering real hope and real change.

Puberty Blocker clinical trials to begin on the NHS - The trial will involve around 220 children under 16 - Young people will “undergo intensive medical and psychological screening”, including Gillick competency evaluation - Trial: Group 1 will get PBs straight away vs Group 2, 12 months later

In response to the awful events that took place on Highfield Road in Hemsworth on Wednesday 19/11/2025, Wakefield District Green Party extends their thoughts to all pupils and families affected, as well as all of the hardworking teachers and staff.

I’m standing against Farage’s politics. Join the Never Nigel movement and help show that Reform UK isn’t the answer: hopenothate.org.uk/are-you-a-never-nigel/ @hopenothate.org.uk

Ellie Chowns speaking about the shameful proposal by the Home Secretary today. Labour won’t appease the far right with these policies, they will embolden them and widen the divides in the country.

I’m appalled after watching the Home Secretary give her speech in parliament this evening. It’s difficult to put in to words how horrifying it is to see the way so many MPs spoke about their fellow humans. Recently voting to defend the ECHR now they want to amend it and work around it to save time.

We'll be proudly joining Wakefield Stand Up To Racism and other community groups at the Wakefield Unity Rally this Saturday. Come and stand with us! Saturday 15th November 12:30pm Cathedral Precinct WF1 1SP. We're looking forward to seeing you there!

COP30 in Brazil is a pivotal time in history. The Green Party is demanding: 💰 Climate Damages Tax to make the polluters pay ⚖️ Fund climate justice for the Global South ❌ Keep fossil fuels in the ground 🌳 End deforestation by 2030 ⏩ Global just transition now

Hey everyone can I remind you all about this. I ask you to invite your friends, families, neighbours, dogs along. Parts of our community are being targeted by far right and racist thugs. We *must* unite against them. Assemble on Saturday 15th of November 12:30 Wakefield Cathedral Precinct.

Nadia Whittome rightly blames JKR and Musk for transphobia – but Labour is to blame too “there are external forces funded by big money from Elon Musk to JK Rowling, but the Government isn’t standing up against that with a compassionate alternative”

It’s not just children who need this - EVERYONE needs to be more media literate in this era of misinformation and Orwellian propaganda tactics!

Great Yarmouth is set to host the biggest neo-nazi music festival in over a decade. The Home Office has the power to block entry of overseas bands, which will scupper the promoters plans. But they won’t act unless we demand it. Email the Home Office now: hopenothate.org.uk/2025/08/28/g...

We had a wonderful day at Wakefield Community Pride Fringe today. It was so great getting to meet everyone and we were overwhelmed by the support we received from folk excited about the positive messages that we have to deliver. Massive thanks to LonGBoaT and Unison Wakefield!

@silverpebble2.bsky.social searching out your feed today because I’m stuck in bed and I know that there is always lovely eye tickles that bring joy. Pic my daughter took in the garden for me.

This Sunday families are gathering to stop the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. A bill that seems to written against wellbeing and education.

The contempt that this man holds for struggling families seems to hold no bounds. The position of the Green Party is to abolish the two-child benefit cap and lift a quarter of a million children out of poverty.

Exciting rock and fossil update from the children during my break. Collected from the coast today whilst I rest at home.
