Presenting my #AnnualReport2025 @coe.int @pace.coe.int, I warn that we risk losing our invaluable treasure of #HumanRights. In part, their survival depends on how we support #Ukraine 's people, manage migration, and protect civil society & marginalised groups👇 #AI #Equality #RomaRights #Climate

It's Stephen Lawrence Day. Everyone should familiarise themselves with the way he, Duwayne Brooks and his family were failed by the state. Crooked police, lawyers, press and politician. It's more corrupt than you remember, I promise you that stephenlawrenceday.org

Worked on some aspen/birch trees in watercolor! Last photo is where I ended up after two hours of work (I know there’s a difference between aspen and birch but I don’t know what the difference is)

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill. HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

can ai do THIS?? [making a mess while making art, having fun with textures and the play of art that is integral to the creation of art, the inevitable stamp of my soul within the art I make because it is born out of my experiences, my joy and wonder and despair, and it is wholly mine]

🚨There are just two days left to respond to the consultation on Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026. If passed as it is, this guidance risks causing significant harm to trans and non binary students in schools and colleges. You can respond here: tinyurl.com/38uc2rdv. Please share for reach.

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded. “This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.” www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

A big thank you to Hannah Spencer MP for signing our letter and standing in clear support of the trans+ community. Like Hannah, many women from across the political spectrum have joined the 101,000+ UK women who have already signed our letter - Women in support of the trans+ community.

Contrast: Feeling afraid to hold hands with her wife, and the need to be vigilant so that equal marriage doesn’t get rolled back. Vs The apparent need to find a middle ground on trans rights

Good morning, we have arrived at Swindon to report on this. A few people are already gathering, having walked outside from the local pride hub here.

Here's some paper cut-out fun for the whole family: an #Etruscan tomb, complete with 3D sarcophagus, frescoes, *and* grave goods! This print in the #BritishMuseum was probably from Campanari's 1837 exhibition of Etruscan and Greek antiquities at Pall Mall, London. Print it out! 🏺 1/

“Spaces for all women have been lost as inclusive women’s groups have closed rather than be bullied into excluding trans people, and trans people have been increasingly worried about what comes next.” Defining “sex” in crude biological terms does not offer clarity — it just cultivates more anxiety.

Between this and Sotomayor's recent dig at Kavanaugh, I'm getting the sense that Callais (the Voting Rights Act case) will be an absolute disaster and the liberals have given up trying to mitigate the damage.

This week’s case is Chiles v. Salazar, where the Court held that conversion therapy is simply freedom of speech for evil therapists.

As I learn more about the Mandelson situation, it’s seeming harder to confect a scenario where everyone is telling the truth.

It's a year today since the Supreme Court decision on the meaning of "sex" under the Equality Act 2010. Jolyon Maugham and I have written a reflective piece with our thoughts on the judgment, everything that has happened since, and why it's so important that we are still fighting - together 👇

Today marks one year since the Supreme Court’s For Women Scotland judgement. The Supreme Court told us its ruling would not remove rights from trans people, but it has caused confusion, discrimination and its decision is bleeding across into other legislation with devastating effects.

🆕🚨 - Just days ahead of the anniversary of the For Women Scotland Supreme Court decision that upended UK Trans+ rights, the EHRC has announced it has submitted a new draft code of practice following comments from the Government. What do we know, and has it scrapped bathroom bans? 🧵
