I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Thinking about the Trump regime’s attempts to annex Greenland, it reminds me of when US President FDR tried to force Ireland to reject neutrality in WWII. His regime even drew up plans to invade Ireland. Ironic, given the Allies claim to be defending small independent states!

I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already. He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us. It's not distraction.

BREAKING: The EHRC have admitted that the recent action against their offices by BASH BACK actionists has brought their tenancy status into question. They may get evicted. Nothing is confirmed, so our demand remains the same: Fora must drop the EHRC as tenants. xoxo BASH BACK

Disappointing that the Cabinet Secretary didn't address my question on how segregation of trans young people in schools ensures their inclusion, safety and support. 1/2

important peer-reviewed publication by @fiercemum.bsky.social about the non-affirmative "treatment" system for young trans people. Horrific, abusive, harmful and worse. No wonder Starmer's government is dragging its feet over a conversion-therapy ban. Their new system IS conversion therapy.

The Free Speech Union commissioned a "security" report on us, so we tested their security. Turns out - it sucks. We've now published the names of everyone who has donated to a FSU fundraiser, along with how much they gave and to which campaign. www.transbashback.com/fsu.html xoxo BASH BACK

For Christmas entertaining, I froze ice cubes with small berries in them. In a few, I concealed Mentos mints. It was excellent watching people's reactions when the ice melted enough for their Cokes to suddenly erupt for no apparent reason

Young drug dealer Mary Poppins works as a nanny to establish networks of new customers in the higher echelons of society. First day at a new job she starts grooming two rebellious young children into being her drug mules.

Fuck Christmas.

Just been talkimg to a cis friend from way back, a scout leader. Since the Guides went trans exclusive: (1) Lot of defections from Guides. (2) Lot of scout leaders including her clearly stating they will walk away if scouts follow suit. Her comment: "They've destroyed their organisation".

We must #ChangeTheNarrative! Dr Beth Upton was fully acquitted of all wrongdoing in yesterday’s Employment Tribunal decision. Yet she has been vilified by a toxic & poisonous media for months. It must stop! Congratulations, and solidarity, to you, Beth!

Equality & Human Rights Commission faces devastating challenge: See press release & announcement. Trans Exile Network supports this release and is yet to lodge its GANHRI submissions to strip EHRC of recognised status. 'Crowing' by the EHRC is sorely misjudged. transactual.org.uk/blog/2025/10...

“Why should trans people build their lives in a country which continues to demonstrate its hostility? Unless the government takes urgent action, the threat won’t just be to trans people’s human rights, but also to our economy as we make life harder for business, and drive talent away.”

What I am about to say is probably illegal. But if it saves lives I do not care. We trans people have the networks & experience to support parents of trans kids being detransitioned, with alternatives. Risk jail or see a trans kid die? I'd rather be on the right side of history.

Ongoing dilemma for the Establishment - report this in an attempt to monster trans people and risk the possibility that kids might be involved, therefore letting the public know that trans kids exist and have agency, or suppress the news and add to the sense of media complicity.

the first person that patriarchy teaches a man to harm is himself. oppressive violence against others is more palatable if someone has already first been convinced to rip the copper wiring out of their own soul.

Richard Murphy almost definitely brought the receipts this week

This is a very important legal case, whereby the enforcement of equal human rights for trans ppl, ruled by the European Court of Human Rights, is actually carried out by the British govt. Having not done so, as legally required, brings the British state into disrepute, & undermines human rights.

Why do we keep talking about trans healthcare? Because of statistics like this. Because every day waiting, in this world obsessed with harassing trans people, is a battle that many don't survive. So, we keep talking about it, and keep fighting back against systemic transphobia.

Today, we and the Trans Exile Network have made a joint submission to the Directorate General of Human Rights and Rule of Law regarding the UK Supreme Court's judgment in the For Women Scotland v. Scottish Ministers case of April 2025. transexilenetwork.co.uk/articles/tra...

If a dad has been there for a child, supported them through thick and thin, picked them up when they were down, laughed with them, cried with them, loved them like their own, but weren't their 'biological' dad, they'd still be their dad right? You couldn't say they 'identified' as a dad.

It's always the people who aren't being targetted by labour fearmongering about reform doing that same... Like read the room, you cannot scare us into voting labour by telling us reform will do the things already happening to us under labour.

One of the unexpected things I've learned from my advocacy for trans people is how malignant parts of the State can be, how it can misuse data for positively evil purposes. It's taught me people can't be safe with a digital ID card and so I've signed this. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

It doesn't matter if digital ID cards work or not. The real purpose is to aggregate all personal data into one place so it can be combined with CCTV and mass surveillance. This is the real reason behind the US / UK AI tech partnership recently announced at Trump's second state visit.

When I graduated college it was a criminal offence to be gay & 14 men, on average, were jailed each year in Ireland. Suicides were a drumbeat. The only option was to flee & find safety, which I did, in Britain. Now the UK is persecuting LGBTQ ppl, whilst Ireland does not. So Brits are …

“Calling up the spirit world, in particular the devil's spirit world, can actually have real world consequences”

This has got to me a bit today so here we go. No Rebecca we can't have a calm discussion for the way forward when one side's intention is to eliminate us, secondly the heat is coming from one side, it's the side accusing trans people of being paedophiles, rapists, cheats and predators. 1/26

All this is just confirmation that Trump’s name is in the Epstein Files.

If you want to be a good ally you should stay the fuck out of the business of dolls critiquing our own for being a fucking kapo for Nazis.

The EHRC has provided its draft of a new code of practice to ministers, which now sits with them to either accept or disapprove - but how can MPs intervene? www.wearequeeraf.com/can-mps-stop...

Watching the latest 'YourParty' debacle yesterday cemented a few swirling thoughts. - Corbyn is politically inept with zero energy - always has been but got away with it because he was shielded by others. He was outmaneuvered by Starmer, who could play the game, and its happening again in YP. 1/

"It is mandatory: it’s not that these institutions can exclude trans people but they must exclude trans people. " www.liberalcurrents.com/britains-bat...

How do we call people in rather than out? The world is complicated - and our conversations should reflect that.

As Trans Rescue treasurer, I read this and wonder why we're underfunded, given how much cash is aparently gushing around. >95% of LGBT+ funding goes to gay causes. Trans people really are at the bottom of the pile after everyone else. You can help Trans Rescue here: transrescue.org/donations/do...

Just a note to my UK trans beauties, if you didn’t know you have the legal right to move to Ireland, get a job, buy a house / rent, access healthcare, no visa is required. I know for many it’s a huge expense but it is an option if you’re feeling scared / trapped in the UK

This is only a couple of paragraphs, but it may be the bleakest thing I have ever written. transrescue.org/get-out-now-...

Oh we are SO BACK! It's a two-fer! I said about cursing Trump and thought maybe he was dead during those strange quiet days. Pretty sure it was a stroke. Drooping face on right, makes fist with the left, tries to make fist with the right and can't. The bruise on his hand is from anticoagulants?

every time there's political violence discourse i think about how jo cox was assassinated in broad daylight by a fascist who shouted "britain first" as he shot her, and now nine years later her party is dedicating every moment in power to placating the ideology of her murderer
