In an alarming development, it appears the UK Government covered up a massive spike in trans youth suicides after restrictions. Then covered it up again when caught. Now, after fighting for years, the data is public: trans suicide increased 5x in the country. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Nice morning of activism leafletting for the Greens in Gorton and Denton, met some lovely people! #byelection #gortonanddenton #greenparty #hannahspencer #hannahtheplumber #zackpolanski

I've just used Good Law Project's tool to email MPs on the Council of Europe and let them know they don’t have to bend down to Sex Matter’s transphobic threats. The more they hear from us, the harder it’ll be for them to ignore us. goodlaw.social/9f10d1

Reminder that the new head of the EHRC, Mary-Anne Stephenson, donated to Bailey's crowdfunder. In any just society, this should lead to humiliation, apology and resignation.

Take note UK. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

It's not illegal to use the right toilets and no one should adhere to Mary-Ann Stephenson's headmistressly call to "follow rules" that serve no good purpose, breach the UK's human rights obligations, will be bad for all women, and debase trans dignity. Make her appoint her sodding toilet police.

You thought the patriarchy was going to stop with trans people? Really? www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

At a time where Labour and other parties are looking to roll back rights of minorities across the board, having a politician sit down, actually listen and take on board how they can advocate for trans and other marginalised communities is so important. The Greens give me so much hope for the future💚

"Jess O’Thomson of GLP argued that recent decisions by Girlguiding and the WI to exclude trans women were the result of “lobbying and legal threats” from groups “pressuring organisations on the basis that the case is closed, and exclusion is now legally required – when that is far from the case”

UK Labour are pandering to reform and petitioning the ECHR to help deportations by narrowing the definition of ‘inhuman and degrading treatment’. With Labours track record so far on human rights I don’t trust them not to go further. Vote for hope, join the greens 💚💚 @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Vote Green 💚💚 the only party looking to unite the country, not scapegoat immigrants and divide it. The only party with the backbone to stand up to right wing media organisations and actually protect and respect Trans people. The only party looking to actually tax the rich. Vote for hope! Join today!

Across the UK, trans people are facing hostility like never before. The UN and @Amnesty.org have warned that Britain is backsliding on LGBTQ+ rights, with trans rights under particular threat (@ILGAEurope.bsky.social , 2024). #HumanRightsDay

🎯ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY🎯 The Green Party has passed 180,000 members! That's enough to fill Ally Pally 18 times - and we're not getting any littler 😉 All across the country, thousands of people are joining to build a positive movement of hope. Be part of it. Join today ⤵️

Shocking but unsurprising to see two Labour MPs in front attempt to shout me down — for standing up for disabled people hit by cuts, kids pushed into poverty by the two-child benefit cap & pensioners who lost winter fuel payments. I know whose side I’m on. Can they say the same?

Today marks 320 days since @teamlabouruk.bsky.social promised a ban on conversion therapy in the King's Speech, and we still don't have a bill. Write to your MP and tell them that time's up. #BanConversionTherapy www.prideinlabour.org.uk/times-up

It seems wrong that the head of the UK's "independent" EHRC hangs out with anti trans groups, then her organisation puts out discriminatory anti trans guidance 🤔 Feels like some sort of investigation or legal action maybe in order 🤔 Labour knows this is happening, but has no will to do anything 😡

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72.... Please sign this. Disabled people need access to benefits and the process is already challenging enough.

Delighted that over half of @libdems.org.uk MPs have signed @cajardinemp.bsky.social's Early Day Motion on making sure parties step up on #transrights, including the Chief Whip, Deputy Leader and Home Affairs spokes. Looking out for more, of course. 👀 And thanks to @elliechowns.bsky.social too. 🙂💛💚

Labour's NEC agreed to develop a code of conduct against transphobia in March 2021, and *still* hasn't finished that work over four years later, but they got a ban on trans women written out in a few weeks.

We have joined @georgiameadows.bsky.social and @labour4transrights.bsky.social in this joint statement condemning the contents of the leaked paper due to be discussed by Labour’s National Executive Committee tomorrow. (1/2) www.prideinlabour.org.uk/post/joint-s...

Keep up the pressure. We cannot allow @teamlabouruk.bsky.social to drag the ban on conversion therapy on any longer. www.prideinlabour.org.uk/times-up #BanConversionTherapy #TransRightsNow #TimeIsUp #ProtectTransPeople #Labour #LabourParty #LGBTQIA #LGBT #SurvivorsDeserveBetter

Oh my, this didn't make the UK papers 🚨

1. The organization TGEU (Transgender Europe) has just released their annual transgender rights map. “For the first time in its 13-year history, setbacks in human rights of trans people now clearly outweigh progress" The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The UKSC ruling was an opportunity for the government and the EHRC to step up and commit to affirm the rights of all. They've failed on every measure, choosing to peddle hate and discrimination instead. We've heard enough: Kishwer Falkner and Bridget Phillipson must resign. 1/2

So good to see the focus of the FA, media, and politics is on attacking a tiny minority. 30 trans women out of millions of registered female players. Well done everyone 👏 definitely not a complete waste of time. Thanks for allowing this vile discrimination 👍

Sex matters, LGB alliance, transgender trend and genspect all once again showing they do not understand trans people and haven’t read the numerous studies as to why puberty blockers were prescribed at all. How can you write a letter like this and not realise how utterly evil you are

A trans woman wrote to Wetherspoons to ask which toilets they're meant to use. Wetherspoons replied acknowledging the Supreme Court's verdict...and that trans customers can use whichever loos they want to but to please lock the cubicle door. Labour now being outflanked on the left by Wetherspoons.

The Supreme Court took evidence from this group. Lesbians need to let people have a 'proper look' to use toilets now. The 2022 TUC LGBT+ Conference voted 200 votes to 1 that LGB Alliance do not represent them and are not a 'force for social good'. This is why. [1/2]

We asked #LGBTQIA young people, "Are Labour MPs human beings or cowardly monsters"? Result: 100% Monsters

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

"The judgment at the Supreme Court achieved nothing in the bid for women’s rights & equality. It has dealt with none of the most pressing concerns & risks facing women today. Feminists know this & they know too what is at further risk" Our CEO in the Herald ⬇️ www.heraldscotland.com/opinion/2511...

We know which one labour would rather focus on

Trans people in the UK were punched in the stomach today by their legal system 🚨 Their voices were excluded from the case 🚨 The groups attacking them are financed by orgs working for the hard right 🚨 CisWomen are next 🚨

We are studying today's judgement by the UK Supreme Court. Nothing they rule will change our solidarity with the trans+ community and with everyone who seeks to live their lives under control of their own bodies, and free from poverty, ignorance or conformity.

Waking up to devastating news for British trans people facing a truly awful ruling from their Supreme Court. This follows a manufactured campaign of lies, panic, and ignorance based on a playbook now unfolding in the US. I know the fight continues, but my heart is with you today and always

They literally want affirmative action for white people.

A cross-party joint statement from LGBT+ Liberal Democrats, Rainbow Greens, LGBTQIA+ Greens, and Out for Independence on Wes Streeting’s engagement with anti-trans organisations and call for his resignation. Read and share the full statement here: lgbt.libdems.org.uk/news/article...

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power. REPOST if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!

ABC White House correspondent just released ANOTHER anti-trans EO expected that we did not cover in our piece this morning: A federal ban on funding to programs that acknowledge and affirm transgender people.
