As Interim Chair of Ban Conversion Practices Coalition I’m concerned a parenting book promoting “desistance” appears in 58 UK libraries. This is not evidence-based care; it draws from harmful conversion practices. Young people deserve dignity and support, not shame. We need a fully inclusive ban now

Graham Norton and Alan Cumming call for conversion therapy ban - as Interim Chair of the Ban Conversion Practices Coalition, I welcome their voices for naming a harm that too many still don’t see #BanConversionPractices #BCPCoalition www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

This is now the 8th Xmas since the UK Government committed to banning #LGBTQ+ conversion practices. I’m one of many calling on the Government to publish a draft Bill before the end of this Parliamentary session, as promised. Another year of delay is another year of preventable harm and suffering.

“Conversion practices continue to inflict profound and preventable harm, and every day without a ban leaves people at risk. "We now expect the government to uphold its promise." #BanConversionPractices www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

The police will have the power to make it a criminal offence to cover your face at a public protest if Labour’s proposed policing bill becomes law, putting LGBTQIA+ people attending Pride events in danger of being outed

There has been an utter and continual failure to address antisemitism in recent years. I have seen it repeatedly justified. It's vile, and it has led to this. Solidarity today on Yom Kippur with my Jewish friends, and the wider community.

Met Police Secret filming by Panorama reveals evidence of racism, misogyny and officers revelling in the use of force at one of London’s busiest police stations, Charing Cross. www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

Facial Recognition Has No Place at Carnival Live facial recognition at Notting Hill Carnival raises serious concerns about law, fairness, and trust. This is a cultural celebration rooted in Caribbean heritage, not a high-risk security event #NottingHillCarnival www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

Any other event claiming to be a Black Pride celebration is NOT affiliated or endorsed by UK Black Pride. We don’t fake it to make it 💅🏽 www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

Sarah Pochin is out of touch not just with women in policing, but with women full stop. Her views belong on a dusty old shelf in a forgotten wing of history where women are seen, not heard www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

It has been one year since the Government announced that they would bring forward a fully inclusive draft Bill to ban conversion practices in the King’s speech. urldefense.com/v3/__https:/... #BanConversionTherapy #BanConversionPractices #NoDelays #NoLoopholes #NoExceptions

Two years of malicious communication and abuse from the anti-trans lobby group because they hate trans women. They lost - we won! ✊🏽🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

This surge is part of a wider coordinated movement aimed at undermining human rights protections, particularly targeting LGBT+ people, reproductive freedoms and access to essential healthcare. "When we defend one of us, we defend all of us." @amnestyuk.bsky.social www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

While the public is being distracted by debates about trans women and toilets, the real crisis facing women is being ignored. www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal...

The world is burning and people think they can fix it by inspecting genitalia. But only women’s genitalia.

Reminder that a) the tests they want to use are not effective at measuring sporting advantage b) the tests are not actually reliable enough at testing karyotype either c) sex testing has been long understood to enable human rights abuses
