📢 EMERGENCY TRANS DEMO 📢 11 AM - 23 May 2026 Parliament Square, London TRANS RIGHTS ARE UNDER ATTACK! TRANS INCLUSION ISN'T DISCRIMINATION BRING YOUR BANNERS AND FLAGS ✊🏳️‍⚧️

Wrong take imo, we know people are pissed off with Labour, we have to give people a progressive alternative to Labour which is not Reform. And the phenomenon of a Green/Reform swing voter is real. The idea that Greens running splits the left vote is misguided

Exactly this basically, when Greens work hard, Labour is forced to also work hard, and residents get listened to

Before we unintentionally won by a landslide in Lewisham we were incredibly proud of the fact that we'd forced Labour out on the streets to listen and engage with people who's votes they'd taken for granted for much of the last 55 years. We shouldn't be heading back to that place anywhere.

The last thing we should be doing is giving up ground to Labour. If Andy Burnham is mean to be this amazing new figurehead for Labour (/doubt) make him work for it! Make him say why he's a better choice for the area than the Greens.

Today's ruling on the EHRC's interim guidance is a disappointing, confusing and mixed picture. A trans woman who is a customer in a café can use the women's toilets, but if she works there she might not be able to. Once again everyday life is being made a legal labyrinth for trans people.

So, at my place of work, there is not difference in toilet use between staff and students toilet use. But now trans students can use the correctly-gendered toilets, but not trans staff. Ridiculous!

Ladbrokes are very clear, Labour are now rank outsiders in the Gorton and Denton by-election. It’s between the Greens and the fascists. A Labour vote will let Reform in, a Labour vote is a Reform vote.

@tobietull.bsky.social I'm just sort of wondering about chocolate and whether you'd be able to maybe perhaps bring some back with you from work today? Hey, no worries if not, but just worth an ask!

Big Day Out on the 31st of January! RSVP at lewisham.greenparty.org.uk Meet Zack Polanski and @liamshrivastava.bsky.social who is standing for #Lewisham Mayor for @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social!

It’s time to bring hope back to Lewisham @lewishamgreenparty.bsky.social can win in Lewisham, but we need to build a people-powered campaign to take on Labour and their wealthy backers Join us. Donate today and let’s transform our borough! bit.ly/makelewisham...

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia. I disagree. RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

In the spirit of #AbolishBadThings 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💚

Not the short clip of Charlie Kirk posted by the BBC at the top of its love feed being a nothingy clip and then about trans people in sports! Nothing else, none of this other vile views! The BBC is pickled in TERFism

People are exhausted. Our high streets, public spaces, whole communities left unloved. Blaming migrants won’t fix this. Tackling inequality will. Tax the super-rich. Fund public services. #DrawTheLine www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Clips of Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Any Questions? Q3: Is there a crisis of free speech in the UK? #faragesays "I don't think we have a crisis of free speech at all. I think we have a crisis of irresponsible men mouthing off on Twitter." 🧵3/4

Leading a political party means leading the political conversation - being available and being heard on the platforms people actually use. Join me every Wednesday on my new podcast: Bold Politics. The only podcast led by a current party leader in the UK. Link in bio.

Done, go and do this too, heaven knows GCs know about to be Karens about shit like this - we need to match that energy

Urgent: me and him and the cats need somewhere to live within the next two weeks, I've just been (I think very unfairly) fired and need to move somewhere ASAP

I guess does anyone need anyone to write a thing about idk literally fucking anything at this point but I particularly know about science-y stuff and cars so like synthetic fuel bollocks and batteries and wire harnesses and such. honestly want to die but I guess we have to crack on

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025! survey.gendercensus.com It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

We need to big this up, a V important legal judgement; if it had gone against us it would have been all over the oligarch/transphobic media as a "Landmark" case. I suspect it may be very useful in preventing Universities from silencing trans people under the pretext of pandering to the OfS.

If anyone has further info on this please lmk. Struggling to track down details

A great statement, we need to put pressure on Stonewall, LGBT Foundation and others to follow this lead. They will not do so unless they are pushed. Emails time!

Look at how far the UK has tumbled, we're featuring alongside DRC, Syria, Haiti, etc. in the Lemkin Institute's Genocide News podcast. Those are some very troubled parts of the world. I don't have to heart to listen to the episode, but this synopsis is shocking to see in black and white

it is very heartbreaking to me, as someone who grew up under Section 28 and saw things get so much better, briefly, on a trajectory where I really thought things would change (like an idiot) that now Amnesty International is campaigning in the UK for LGBTQ+ rights. how absolutely fucked can you be

Going to Trans+ Pride in London tomorrow? Want to meet some peeps to march with? Get on down to the LGBT+ Community Centre's Meet & March between 11am-1pm - people are meeting up there then heading over to the march in groups. I'll be there helping out with some family and friends :)

I'm hearing anecdotal reports of trans people being turned away from hospital because there are no "private rooms" and they are refusing to put them in single sex wards. If this happens to you (physical health) Ask for a senior nurse, explain things to them Take all their names Cont.

This is brilliant! Brought me to tears. The Super Rich are taking your money. Not the immigrants. Please share! This must go viral!

I can't recommend any tech(ish) news site more than @aftermath.site. Their piece on SilvaGunner introduced me to a whole new world and allowed me to absolutely assassinate @heatherreally.bsky.social with this rip last night www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXfh...

holy shit lmao

BREAKING 🧨 I'm now in possession of evidence confirming a second trans youth suicide, where the patient's data was NOT sent to NHS England, for inclusion in Appleby's flawed DHSC report "Review of suicides and gender dysphoria at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust: independent report"

Nother petition doing the rounds if you've not seen it yet!

There's a reason we call our Megan "Meggie Sunbeam" It's a good un for her this morning!

I owe my life to sausage and egg butties. I would die to protect them. They are an art form. They are the best of us.

They always say you don't come out once, you come out to new people all the time. Well today I came out to the dentists and BOTH the receiptionists were called Heather as well. Look out world, we control the local tooth supply 🦷 and our numbers only continue to grow 💹

Just got from from playing pool in the Reform voting village I grew up in. I've been more brave about presenting femme rather than androgyneous this time I've been back and literally nothing bad has happened, which gives me some hope we're not completely fucked just yet :)

They are asking her for a THIRD time about photographing trans people in toilets. Asked will she condemn it. Won't condemn it because she hasn't seen it (the tweet) but then says "I don't think people should be photographing people in toilets"

Just subjected myself to the committee meeting grilling the likely next head of the EHRC: took some doing to get Dr Stephenson to say she thinks taking photies of people in toilets is wrong!

[Bruce Springsteen voice] Well, they repoed a cybertruck in Philly last night

Open letter calling for an inquiry into the EHRC. I’ve just signed. organise.network/actions/peti...

I am, once again, ont sup, this time with my buddy Josh and the excellent Royal Oak, waiting to find out how late Lew will be! Can hardly wait for this evening's pride party gubbins

Yes we love what @hazelsouthwell.bsky.social is doing! Visit her pub for some quality non bigot vibes.

If you’re anywhere near here tonight, do go along, have a nice drink, and stand up to bigotry.

The homophobes are trying to boycott Hazel's pub, because of tonight's Pride party. Come down and show your support if you can.

Having written about DEI for many years, it’s very rare in 2025 to have a real-time on-the-ground example of how we can collectively change inclusion. Solidarity to @hazelsouthwell.bsky.social

HUGE thanks to David for covering this - and yes, please come to the pub tonight, I know it's a long way out and a bit of a shithole but I really need to stick it to the homophobes so this is partying as praxis
