For all those saying “Digital ID is fine. All our neighbours have one,” I offer you these thoughts, which is just one perspective on why it’s a bad idea in the UK. Other opinions are obv available and they’re yours :) Thread follows and this is /1 bsky.app/profile/sylv...

Petition: Ban all forms of conversion therapy petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

Tired, angry, weepy. Time for sleep. I hope you all sleep well when it’s your turn. This, esp from minute 48, is powerful trinitychurchnyc.org/events/novus...

With time running out. Check out our compilation of actions to fight the EHRC code of practice guidance. With some writing guides from @transactualuk.bsky.social and @tacc.org.uk And a letter you can write to businesses from @transsolidarity.bsky.social whatthetrans.com/compilation-...

Prediction: lots of naive white cis het abled employed people with no understanding of risk and oppression will be popping up here saying, “Yes, we should have ID cards”

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...

This was a big surprise in my inbox today. I think the idea here is for me to encourage you to head to www.transinthecity.co.uk/awards and nominate me too. If you want to that would be nice.

This is HUGE. Morgan McSweeney and Shabana Mahmoud, now the Home Secretary, have LIED about donations to Labour Together… Both have to go. They are responsible for this mess.

A union who cannot grasp human rights and equality and who instead side with a powerful boss class who want to destroy them expressly against the wishes of their own members is a union whose leadership are not fit for purpose and who need to resign.

Grateful to have been nominated for the Trans In The City Awards 2025. If you want to say something about my work for the trans community, or nominate someone else, you can do so at: transinthecity.co.uk/awards

This is a really good article. It’s long, but brilliantly encapsulates what’s happening in the UK in removing trans rights. It clearly points out the massive legal overreach & how anti-trans lobbying is designed to elicit ‘disgust’ to drive centrists towards the authoritarian right. Share widely!

An even more hostile place

Raging, howling… close to weeping. Sorry :(

See me live on tour! I’m going to Leicester, Northampton, Bristol, Edinburgh, Newcastle, York, London, Birmingham, Manchester, Milton Keynes, Taunton, Southend-on-sea, Cambridge, Southampton, Leeds, Liverpool, Guildford and Brighton. www.livenation.co.uk/matt-green-t...

Argh… all these people (mostly men) saying “The world is bad but we must compromise” or “The world is bad and something must be done, except to address the gateway problem of transphobia because I think transes are icky”. It’s so %{^}>~ depressing and repetitive <end rant>

90k now :)

We have been advised that ‘Gender Critical’ NHS staff have been trying to locate some trans people by searching the NHS computer systems. We ask everyone worried they may have been targeted, to make a Subject Access Request to learn who has searched your record.

No particular reason

The weather is glorious :) Off for a walk :) Wherever you are, I hope your day is going as well as it might :) We can all do with a lift ….

It’s already at almost 80k. Won’t take much to get it over 100k. We can get more specific about our objections later (for example, the issue of gender markers), but might as well have an out and out “NO” as a starting point!

I know these things don’t make much difference, but I just signed this - it’s going up quite quickly at the moment.

Do NOT believe the misinfo going around There absolutely have been MASSIVE TOS updates Most notably: 1) Specifying no FICTIONAL noncon 2) No "dangerous" kink 3) No DISCUSSING self harm, suicide, or substance abuse unless its "educational" So what can we DO about it? #SaveSpeech 1/🧵

Not sure how much reach this will get…. Seems to me if Starmer announces digital ID then we need to start writing to MPs to make sure that either sex / gender is simply omitted (best) or that it can be changed with no more difficulty than currently involved in changing a gender marker on a passport

To be transphobic is to be fascist

Let the day begin :) To all of you that might read this (both of you, you know who you are 🙂) I wish you the best, most joyful day you can have :)

Wild thought… All the major SM platforms (inc this one) should be shut down / locked out of the UK during a GE campaign. If the platforms have no impact then the result will still be clean and if SM does make a difference then the result will still be clean

1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture. The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention. Here’s how they did it... 🧵

Britain’s Bathroom Ban https://www.liberalcurrents.com/britains-bathroom-ban/

What is antifa, and why should you care that Trump wants to outlaw it?

Kimmel was right.

Morning Folks! So far we've raised a massive £22K+ to fight the legal campaign to keep the Kenwood Ladies Pond inclusive. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed. We need to meet our target of 50K to fight for #TransRights Please share. www.gofundme.com/f/working-fo...

After 47 years, Jerry has made the difficult decision to step down from the company we built together. I’m sharing his words as he resigns from Ben & Jerry’s. His legacy deserves to be true to our values, not silenced by @magnumicecreamco.bsky.social #FreeBenAndJerrys

it reads like a screenplay intern's first draft

Crying watching this. It's been so hard these last years. I'm totally worn out with nothing left. www.instagram.com/reel/DOT2VFK...

“We must tackle the rising tide of Deadly Wesley claiming to be compassionate” He’s a monster

FROME preview this Thursday: wegottickets.com/event/665015 Very limited tickets so don’t delay!

If you’ve enjoyed my videos over the last few years I’d love to see you at my live shows. My tour starts in a month and sales have been slower than last year - probably partly because I’m not on X anymore. But it’s a fun show and I’d love more people to see it! www.livenation.co.uk/matt-green-t...

It has come to my attention that many of you have been sharing this photo of Streeting and Mandelson widely. Please remember that Wes Streeting does not like it being shared widely. So please do not share it widely and on every possible occasion. We wouldn’t want to upset him would we?

Time for sleep. Respite and a reset. Starmer’s vs yesterday - appallingly weak. Adds to sense that UK will end up with the same institutional madness as the US (we’re close). RW push against trans folk in US is awful. Hoping for enough voices of moral clarity to calm that. Hodge? In a dustbin

Facts

Bluesty "Trust" and "safety" continues to be a fucking joke. Free Sophie!

Hey @safety.bsky.app trans activist @sophiemolly.co.uk has been suspended without a reason. Please reconsider, Sophie has endured more than her fair share of particularly vicious dehumanisation and after nearly 7 years of this every day, it can cause unseen damage. How about a little leeway?

Today, BlueSky has given me: Reasons to hope: more MPs signing letters about parliamentary scrutiny of the EHRC COP. Must all 4 GPEW MP’s should sign Carla Denyer’s letter Smiles: some beautiful images / humour shared by folk :) Reasons to be grumpy: the EHRC, still / again. Sorry for related posts

It appears we need to share this again... #ECHR #Bravermam #Reform

Delegates at #TUC25 have voted for a motion which will see the TUC "campaign publicly on its policy for gender self-declaration"

Yup 🙃
