We're grateful to both campaigns for engaging with us and answering our questions. In our view, @lucympowell.bsky.social is the deputy leadership candidate that is better placed to advocate for trans rights within Labour.

After hearing from both candidates, Labour for Trans Rights has decided to endorse @lucympowell.bsky.social in the Deputy Leadership Election. Ballots will begin to drop tomorrow for Labour Party members and other eligible electors. Good luck Lucy!

There are so many allies in the arts, and I think it's about time we tried to organise some sort of big benefit concert to raise money for trans advocacy organisations

Sophie Ellis-Bextor hits out at transphobia: “These people make trans people their whole personality and spend their entire day being angry” 💯 “There was a time when Pride felt like a celebration of the shoulders people were able to stand on, but now it feels like an absolute political necessity”

My MP @alexsobel.co.uk is already a firm ally, but there are many essentially decent Labour MPs who don't yet have all the facts and just need a bit of nudging. Please inform your MP's decision making in relation to the EHRC by sending them the @transactualuk.bsky.social template letter. 🏳️‍⚧️

Just sent this @transactualuk.bsky.social template to my MP. I would encourage others to do the same, especially if like me you’re cis. We gotta stand with our trans siblings now more than ever 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This piece from Maria Exall is very good

Tuesday's rally was incredibly hopeful, with trans people and allies from across the labour movement coming together to say enough is enough.

Trans Safety Network are very concerned to see that the review into supposed over diagnosis of mental ill heath and neurodivegence ordered by Wes Streeting is to be chaired by Peter Fonagy with Simon Wessely as Vice chair. www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/controv...

I am sickened by today’s attack in Manchester. Antisemitism is on the rise around the world, and we must do all we can to stomp it out. I am grateful to first responders and congregants who showed incredible bravery, and I am praying for those who were killed.

Thank you for an amazing rally Conference! We were so proud to have over 200 people turn out for us. The labour movement is on our side 🏳️‍⚧️

@mickwhelanaslef.bsky.social, we’re proud of you too ❤️ Thank you to ASLEF, Unite, Unison, GMB, CWU, UCU and NUS and everybody else who supported us yesterday 🏳️‍⚧️ labourlist.org/2025/09/mick...

“Prejudice thrives in ignorance, hope grows in knowledge, solidarity is built in shared struggle.” @drjogrady.bsky.social at the Labour conference trans rally. Labour must defend and champion inclusive education.

We send our prayers, love and solidarity to our Jewish brothers and sisters across the country, and all in @jewishlabour.bsky.social, following the horrific events in Manchester on this holiest of days. We are mourning with you.
