“You could strongly disagree with Ann, then have a drink and laugh with her.” ~ Gyles Brandreth. I suppose not ever having his own human rights opposed and destroyed helps Gyles to stay so ideologically pure and sound. And the fact that he himself is a smug conservative tosser.

Your party has already killed my freedom to live any sort of life in this country, with the most extreme anti-trans legislation anywhere. Reform aren't even on my radar with the damage you're doing to trans people's lives.

I hope these documents have also been slammed in front of Phillipson.

Even more ominous is Murray's conduct since taking the job. Streeting at least pretended he wanted decent trans healthcare, he was following the evidence, making tough decisions etc. Murray has come in and immediately presented himself as a fully out and proud transphobic bigot. It's disgusting.

Another furnace of a day begins. ☕️ Was out at 5 with the dogs, getting them exercised before it gets simply too hot to let them out. Today I will be mostly editing. ✍🏻🤓 This weekend I will buy some paper and coloured pencils and attempt to draw a cover. Years ago I was good at drawing. Now? Dunno.

You should blame Labour.

From today, everyone who calls themselves a Labour Party member deserves to be thoroughly shamed and ostracised. Today, trans people become SIGNIFICANTLY less than human in the eyes of UK law, thanks to their disgusting, radicalised bigotry. They are a far right Nazi party. EVERY member is scum.

Those names deserve to be vilified far more strongly than even Thatcher. To do what they've done in 2026, after decades of progress, is beyond disgusting. They are beyond disgusting. Utterly rancid individuals, whose names will forever be shit. And Labour can never be trusted again by decent folk.

You only have to remove human rights from one demographic to be a far right, fascist government. Labour are a far right, fascist government. If you think that’s hyperbolic, and that the demographic they’ve dehumanised and removed human rights from don’t matter… …then YOU are a far right fascist.

The heat has caused a big ‘churn’ in the canal water. It’s like a soup of rotting vegetation. My engine doesn’t like going through it, so I’m here for the foreseeable. Today is going to be super hot. I will not be doing much.

Some upcoming big intl artists that may be supportive with dates at the o2 and Wembley (W), that may be worth mass messaging: Bon Jovi - Sept (W) Ariana Grande - Aug (o2) Hillary Duff - Sept (o2) Evanescence - Sept (o2) Pussycat Dolls - Oct (o2) Good Charlotte - Nov (o2) Phoebe Bridgers - Dec (o2)

Yours will be along sooner than you think if you don't throw out Labour's disgusting trans apartheid and give us our human rights back.

Everyone, everywhere around the world: If you do business with the UK, you're supporting the dehumanisation and societal segregation of trans people. You're supporting an apartheid regime. Stop it now and tell them why. Please.

We need boycotts. Bands cancelling UK dates. The UK getting told left right and centre how appalling it is. Hope Not Hate on an international scale. Know a cool band with UK dates coming up? Write to them. Tell them to cancel and not boost the economy of this backward bigoted shit pit of a country.

Got up at 03:40 ☕️🥱 to embark on another voyage. ⛵️ Decided I require another day’s rest here. ☀️🍷 Ollie and Seren are doing well in the heat now we have a good air cooling unit on the boat. It’s taken a lot of worry away, especially about Seren who is old and therefore more susceptible to heatstroke.

Footage of me popping down to Aldi earlier today.

So, Bluesky nuked my account. No email to tell me why or anything. Please share, so I can find everyone again. Thanks.

Another week of savage heat begins. ☀️🥵🔥 My new air conditioning, which seems good so far, will be sternly tested. I may go in a certain pub later. 🍷 A place where newly out Isobel used to go, discovering a new confidence at 43 and 44, before COVID put a stop to social activity for an unknown time.

I’ve been powering down the country ⛵️ and am sort of ‘home’. This is where newly out Isobel hit the streets 💃🏻 in 2019, and where I spent COVID lockdown in 2020. It’s weird being back here. Not sure why I did it. Looking forward to going all the way back later this week.

When you witness this type of hate towards children, you see that groups like Sex Matters are not protectors of women’s rights nor of girls; they’re bullies and bigots. We call on the Charity Commission to remove its charitable status; we will call on Burnham to restore these children’s rights.

Collie games. I don’t understand the rules of this one, but they have it all worked out.

Ollie and Seren believe I have a magical, never ending supply of chicken strips in my pocket.

Forget Starmer. If Burnham doesn’t fix this disgrace, which he 100% can, he becomes as bad as his predecessor. Don’t let him say “It weren’t me. It was the last guy.” He can fix it all immediately. If he wants.

Started the day before 5am with a lock flight. By 10 we were well ahead of schedule and moored at the village where my air conditioning unit will arrive on Thursday. I didn’t expect to get here until tomorrow or Wednesday. This means I get extra unplanned rest, and have got the fruit ciders in! 🍷🥳🙌🏼

“Andy Burnham’s speech was great, weren’t it?” For who? 🤷🏻‍♀️ His fucking party have virtually kicked me out of this society. If he didn’t say he was fixing that, it was all for the privileged.

It's nice not to wake up in a hurry. ☕ Today is all about resting, before we set off again tomorrow. ⛵ I've ordered another air conditioning unit. It arrives Thursday in a village to the south that I expect to be within range of after tomorrow's tough voyage which will include a big lock flight. 💪🏻

I recommend starting the weekend by breaking down in the middle of a 2 mile canal tunnel. 😅👩🏻‍🔧 Got it going. By luck rather than judgment. This journey is well underway now. ⛵🌍🧭

Another scorching day begins. ☀️🔥🥵 I was boating early again and have found what I hope will be a cool place to moor. My air conditioning unit will not arrive today 😤 so I cancelled it. They wanted to change it to Monday, but I have no idea where I’ll be then.

Not ‘potentially’. The word is: ‘blatantly’. Shamefully, disgustingly, and criminally are also appropriate.

This is going to be used to maliciously prosecute trans healthcare providers. There is no other reason for this appalling wording.

Another stupidly hot day begins. My air conditioning unit arrives tomorrow 🤞🏻 and I think it’s going to be a lifesaver over this summer. Planning a journey back south. ⛵️ I miss old friends and familiar places. This weekend I’ll work on my engine. It hasn’t been very happy lately. That must change. 👩🏻‍🔧

Got woken up by very heavy rain early this morning. That means it’ll be very humid now the temperature is climbing into the mid 30s. 🥵 Tomorrow and the next day, we could hit 40. This is not normal and it isn’t good.

There's also a demographic in the UK about to lose the right to exist in most of society, suffering a surge in suicides, the cruel removal of lifesaving healthcare, prescribed torture by the NHS, and whom the government now has a policy of rape as punishment. Strange omission from Labour's crimes.

I don’t want to hear about Andy Burnham today. Worry about him another time. Just let me enjoy Starmer’s humiliation, which he has 100% brought upon himself. ‘Decent man’ my arse. He makes Thatcher look like she had some heart. History will remember him as a cold, cruel, utterly vicious bastard.

Another very hot day begins, but not as hot as the next 3 days, when the temperature is going to be downright dangerous. 🔥 Yes, of course it’s human made climate change. Temperatures in Europe are like 45. This isn’t normal at all.

I’ve got a doner kebab. 😛 And some cider! 😛

I’ve got a huge problem with the way that particular shitbag politician has treated me, and I don’t give a fuck if he’s copping abuse online. Bet you anything I’ve had far worse, and he’s consciously sided with the people who spend their lives throwing shit at people like me. He can go to Hell.

The EHRC won’t see it as a failure. To them it’s a success on the way to their ultimate goal of eradicating trans and intersex people. These people (Phillipson, the EHRC, the GC movement which has infested the government…) must be recognised as dangerous, highly radicalised, genocidal extremists.

Today is the Summer Solstice. ☀️🥳🍷✌🏻 Midsummer is exactly 9:24am. The temperatures are set to climb into the 30s and stay there all week. Hopefully the dogs and I will be okay in the shade under these trees.

As a matter of URGENCY, PLEASE could 100,000 of you sign this petition in the next week: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/77...

Boating at 4:30 this morning. ⛵️ This is a specific shady spot I wanted for the dangerous heat ☀️🥵 expected this week. Thankfully I found it unoccupied 🥳 and was moored on it by 6am. ☕️🙌🏼

Ollie and Seren got me up at 4:45. They know it’s going to be a hot day and wanted to get out early. A brutal week of heat lies ahead.

Ollie’s friends the Swan Family have come to say hello to him! 💜🤗 Seren wouldn’t stand for this. They waited for her to go away. 😄

Set off at 4:45am, stopped at the boat services to water up and get rid of some bags of rubbish, boated onwards and was safely moored up at yet another favourite spot by 6am. ⛵️🙌🏼

Up at 4. 🥱☕️ Boating at 5. ⛵️ By 7 we were safely moored up at another favourite spot! 🤗

If Mary Whitehouse was still alive, this government would have her on speed dial and she'd be dictating policy.

Well done. Secure another generation of repressed and dangerously ignorant English people. You ultraconservative loons.

Unless there wasn't a problem to begin with, and you've just blown up a completely unnecessary shitstorm for no reason other than you're an idiotic fucking arse hole.

This is why England is so full of repressed fuck ups. This mentality. Safeguarding my arse. This is about control and bullying. Putting kids in their place. Dictating what they're allowed to know. Heaven help any queer kids growing up with these abusive arse holes as parents.
