We have heard this consultation may have had a strong transphobic response. It looks like they've tried to slip it through without trans input. It needs to be in by 02 APR, so almost time up. We haven't been able to put a guide for this one due to the short notice.

I am the proposer of this motion, so no co-proposal from me, but I would like to just thank the hard working people who have worked on both the gender-based sports ban motion and this emergency motion. We're all hard grafters. We see opportunities to improve or clarify our positions and we take it.

I've co-proposed this motion. The horrific history of gender testing should not be repeated. In 1999, the IOC stopped testing for SRY because of the negative impact on athletes, and the chance of false positives is very high. It's appalling that they are taking women’s sport back 27 years.

We're overwhelmed by the support on this motion, that opposes the recent decision by the IOC to introduce invasive and ineffective genetic tests on women athletes. If you're a member, do consider joining 140 other co-proposers (and counting).

One frustrating thing I often find is that the fight against trans sports bans is that after any ban. There's a big reaction, but then work towards overturning those bans always gets put on the back burner every time. Fighting for trans sports is one of those things we abandon every time.

From the LibDem conference agenda. I think LibDems might have their own definition of platforming. I would have more respect if they tried justifying hosting well known transphobes at their conference, instead of lying to our faces.

Absolute cowardice from Lib Dems, refusing to have banners up supporting transgender people in the event that anti-trans people will harass party members on social media. First of all, why is nothing done to curb this toxic online envious created by these transphobes?

I know a lot of really well meaning people are still involved in the lib dems, but they've just repeatedly demonstrated that they can't be trusted- trans people are just the latest in a very long list of betrayals.

LVfW response is telling. They chose to go with the "Trans people went too far" argument coupled with "The UKSC decision says otherwise, ah well, nothing to be done." You're lawmakers. Make laws. You're adversarial with the courts, not their subordinates.

, something we have become accustomed to lately. The LDs appear to have issues relating to transphobia, which they need to sort out. A decision about whose side they are on may be the place to start.

Saw some of the reports of people's gender markers or NHS numbers being forcibly being changed. From what I've seen. It looks like there hasn't been some sudden shift in NHS policy. From what information I have so far. It appears to be individuals acting against NHS policy.
