We've said it before and we'll say it again: the EHRC's interim guidance is transphobic and harmful, and it must be stopped. We will fight it in the courts in November. Will you join us? goodlawproject.org/donate/

Yesterday was beautiful and empowering. Was also so lovely to see familiar faces amongst the 100,000 people who joined the march at Trans+ Pride London. #TransPride #London

As we head into #TransPride London this weekend, we want to pause and say a deep, collective thank you to everyone who made our recent #TVCE Symposium programme possible.

Tomorrow, we gather—not only across time zones and geographies, but across the wild, tender architectures of queer hope and trans liberation. The first annual symposium of the TVCE arrives not as an event, but as an unfolding—of voices, gestures, ruptures, and reimaginings.

Simone Biles Challenges Riley Gaines: “Stop Bullying Trans Kids” www.transvitae.com/s... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

Good news! I will be facilitating an online zine making workshop at the @tvce.bsky.social conference on 8 July. The theme is queer acts of hope (-- making and trading zines can be understood as acts of hope and community building). You can sign-up for the conference here: tvce2025.eventbrite.com

You can find me and the poems I created from the narrative interviews I conducted with supportive parents of trans youth at the TVCE symposium on 8th July. For more info go to: @tvce.bsky.social #tvcesymposium2025 #protecttranskids

I'm excited to be part of the first ever @tvce.bsky.social symposium. In my monologue, I share my experience of being a trans Autistic activist and accidental academic. What the academy makes of a fat, trans, queer, mad, disabled person and how I'm doing it anyways. tvce2025.eventbrite.com

This headline 👇🏻 is why Labour is totally relaxed about throwing trans people under the bus - then hitting the accelerator. The Times applauds them when they do.
