Trash statement from a trash party. What does 'play their part' mean? Why does anyone who is legally here have to 'earn that right'? How have labour made releasing a statement worse than keeping silent? It's pathetic the state of politics in this country.

Guys new scamming method on bluesky. Please share this around. Dont fall for this stuff Block, move on.

So let's talk about why this sucks. I am so angry and so disappointed, but I also know that a lot of people might not understand why I and my queer friends are feeling this way. Read on for an explanation 🧵(1/14)

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.

🤦🏼‍♀️ And when I say 🤦🏼‍♀️ I mean that the fingers are digging deep into the flesh of my face in an attempt to reach brain matter. Maybe SHE DIDN'T CONSENT TO BEING MISLED BY A TRANSPHOBE INTO FEELING SAFE TO BE INTIMATE? Send HIM to jail, he's the one whose penis entered another person's body on a lie.

Information relating to the M&S complaint, reportedly from the trans woman whom the complaint was about. Almost everything claimed in recent articles is extremely inaccurate. 1/

I'm quite irritated by people I've seen responding to my initial thread by talking about what the trans people targeted should have done. We shouldn't have to be making these calculations, our use of public space shouldn't be a fucking minefield.

I am one of the 14 authors who chose to leave the Polari Prize, and I find myself frustrated and saddened at the way this entire story has been represented. 1/

Irrespective of how John feels, his words are simply not compatible with an inclusive prize that celebrates all LGBTQ+ people. Just like a racist statement would not be allowed in a prize for writers of colour, or a sexist statement tolerated for a prize for feminist writers. /11

EXACTLY as trans people predicted... Cis women & non-binary people are being harassed & assaulted in toilets since the supreme court misjudgement. @libbybrooks.bsky.social in the Guardian. I'm now working on a way to monitor, document and record incidents like these. Attn @cliveefford.bsky.social

We've added an update to our story reflecting the fact that Eleanor Medhurst and Jane Traies have now also withdrawn their books. Since some folks are using our story to buy books of thosse who've withdrawn, we'll do our best to continue updating with those names and links.

Don't make me call your mother.

I admire Mo Salah's restraint. "Farewell". Really? Suleiman al-Obeid was killed by the IDF as he was queuing for food in Gaza. Say it, you cowards.

BBC among media misreportimg/exaggerating scale of asylum protests Median protest is a few dozen, below 100. "Usually Several hundred at a time" is false. - should say *occasionally* < 1/10 protests have 200 people "Sometimes thousands" I dont think a single 2025 protest had > 2000 people yet

This doesn't mention trans men once www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

💀

The latest transphobic media darling showing that, with them, it's never just transphobia.

official bluesky theme song just dropped

holy shit lmao

Hard pass

This is an important read for any football fan. We have to demand better from our clubs.

Absolutely vile. If you support this then you don't care about protecting kids. You just hate trans people. This is the UK under labour. Don't ever forget it.

It takes no time to show your public support for trans people and this debate has the potential to get the truth out and spoken about. Please sign and then encourage your friends and family to do likewise petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

"And in supporting him so unconditionally, was it in fact Arsenal who are guilty of prejudging Partey’s case long before a jury would ever get the chance?" www.theguardian.com/football/202...

At this point I think I may be one of an incredibly small number of people to have read the second Sullivan report in detail. It is uniformly poor scholarship, containing flagrant fabrications and misrepresentations, calling into question Alice Sullivan's ability to conduct basic academic research

Arsenal already removing tomiyasu from the club list but keeping #5 is making me really question this club.

Well I've just spent a dismal hour or so, more or less telling the Equality and Human Rights Commission why they aren't worthy of the name. You won't enjoy it. But please respond to the consultation. transactual.org.uk/equality-act...

MPs publicly call out and criticise JK Rowling in Parliament. I think this might be a first? That is now in the Hansard record for all time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwBm...

🚨 NEW 🚨 The EHRC has now formally abandoned its contention that employers must provide single sex toilets following the service of our claim for judicial review. goodlaw.social/5mnq

NEW: We’ve uncovered how the EHRC met behind closed doors twice with anti-trans group Sex Matters to discuss rolling back trans rights. What they said will alarm you. 1/6 tacc.org.uk/2025/06/23/h...

🧵 Last week, Robin White, a barrister and trans woman, was harassed for using the women’s toilets in the Parliament. Today, Parliament has implemented a trans bathroom ban, telling trans people that they are no longer be allowed to use toilets which align with their lived gender.

Absolutely pathetic. To do this at all is awful. To do it in response to the harassment of a trans woman by two transphobes and in preparation of the mass trans lobby is utterly contemptable.

'Lesbian and queer resistance to transphobic legislation is not simply a case of one group standing by another, says Pearce. Rather, it’s a collective resistance anchored in an understanding that trans and non-binary people form an integral part of the LGBTQ+ community. '

The abortion decriminalisation debate is loud, emotional, and confusing. After seeing a lot of misinfo and genuine worry, I’ve pulled together a clear, plain-English explainer. No shouting, just facts. Hope it helps.

I think, like most of us, I've felt extremely helpless when it comes to Gaza. Last night felt like we'd made a tiny difference.

They aren't that stupid they just think you are.

#BreakingNewe Israel has just illegally seized the @gazafreedomflotilla & arrested all those on board.

RT if you love boobs or if you think ICE should be abolished

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Oh come on Scotland. We can surely do better than fucking this!

New York Red Bulls fans unvei a tifo ahead of their game against Atlanta United last night, depicting the Statue of Liberty in pride colours and commemorating the 1969 Stonewall uprising in New York, a pivotal moment in the LGBTQ rights movement.

This is quite something - massive respect to Kate Nash for putting this out into the world. Give it a listen. Kate Nash - GERM youtu.be/q2MoQJP-PhA?...

So beautiful. So clear. It's a small thing but it matters and it helps.

No words.

This is one of the toughest articles we have published to date “The whole world left us alone to die” – one family clings to life in Gaza As Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israel will ‘take control’ of all Gaza, we look at what his military campaign has done to ordinary people

I'm grateful for all of the responses. But this is happening to thousands of women, cis and trans, up and down the country. Every day. The only difference is she and I have a voice. Fuck all of those, especially the institutions, who didn't do the work before piling in on 'the transgender issue.'

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

Stupidest way I hurt myself? Child - got a pea stuck up my nose, had to go the doctors to have it removed. Teenager - pulled a muscle in my leg waiting to sit my driving theory test Adult - felt a twinge, ignored it, moved a fridge freezer by myself, made it worse, we were mid move
