Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

Small number of shitty, hateful people continuing to make everyone else's lives worse

This is a huge part of why so many people think we're in the middle of a widespread "anti-woke backlash": Small movements opposed to social progress are collected into trend stories by conservative media. Far larger movements that want more diversity are ignored or cast as threats.

A lot of transphobic whataboutism is just straight up trying to make being a bigot sound like a legit position asked in good faith. Nope, same old horseshit.

The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling. All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense. Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

I had so many Pocketeers. I always got myself a new one from Woolworths in Whitby on family days out.

James Carville is a nightmare.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics. It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT. It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse. Transgender care saves lives.

i don't think it's possible for anyone who isn't a twitter-brained 'gender critical' whackjob to look at that ehrc guidance and see anything other than state persecution of a minority. @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social is absolutely nuts if she okays it.

Good to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social totally destroy #Reform ‘s Leila Cunningham’s racist rhetoric on @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social tonight.

The absolutely BEST #onlyconnect closing gag EVER there.

Zack Polanski on President Trump, "It's difficult to call him anything other than a fool" "This is sociopathic behaviour" "He is toxic, misogynistic, racist" "I'm not a fan of Trump" Christiane Amanpour, "It's pretty clear"

It’s about protecting trans people. Don’t turn it into a generic platitude and rob it of its meaning.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

TransActual have put together these handy FAQs to respond to MPs (or anyone else) who is still struggling to get their head round why the EHRC’s draft Code of Practice would be so devastating for the trans community. Feel free to share, download, print, whatever! transactual.org.uk/wp-content/u...

This is an excellent point. Zohran ran a textbook campaign that the centrists are always talking about, just talking about rent control and free buses and cost of living, and the centrist Dems tried to make it all about Israel/Palestine and other identity issues (his Muslim faith) to smear him.

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak". But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.

Braverman deleted this tweet which made me wonder who that previous prisoner was. His name was Junead Ahmed. He was a conman mistakenly released in 2023. She was Home Secretary at the time. Oh. news.sky.com/story/migran...

It is very clear from watching the interview with Knightley about this that not only does she know, she thinks people who care about trans rights are beneath her. You might not get that from reading a transcript, but watching video, it's obvious.

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong. Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

Feels like, I dunno, maybe it might be a good plan if we associated this obviously bad and increasingly unpopular idea with the politician whose entire career has been telling us it would be a good idea

Under Over Over - West Hampstead So it's taken a while, but I've finally found a location where you can clearly see London Underground trains traveling over London Overground trains. The vantage point is at West Hampstead Overground station at the end of the platform.

On the day Zack Polanski announced his leadership campaign, the Green Party had 60,000 members. They now have 128,000 - an increase of 113%. He doubled the membership in just 5 months.

I certainly have my disagreements with Orthodox Judaism but if we know one thing it’s education and I learned today that even moderate Orthodox schools are teaching kids that LLMs are garbage and that no child should use them until 18, and basically ✅

I've got lots of things to say about Jeremy Clarkson. Really not worth it. He knows his game is over and so is resorting to personal attacks. Piss him off instead and Join.greenparty.org.uk

Long have I believed that a political party was akin to a bus, not a taxi - if elected to power it would take you fairly close to where you wanted to be, but not to the precise destination. The Greens, led by @zackpolanski.bsky.social, are a taxi. They are heading for precisely where I want to be.

Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

Between Mamdani in New York and Zack Polanski in the UK we finally have a pair of actually progressive political leaders speaking out unequivocally for trans rights. Read @katelynburns.com on Mamdani’s ad here: www.burnsnotice.com/you-have-to-...

My other half’s message to the family group chat about the cat. No lie detected.

Ok. But are there any downsides?

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

In case you missed it - here's the chat I had all about our plans for @greenparty.org.uk on Newscast! youtu.be/qCLd78eRunE?...

The BBC has been accused of “extraordinary” anti-Green bias, after the party says a long-promised conference interview with new leader Zack Polanski was cancelled by the Laura Kuenssberg show just days before going to air Every major political party leader, aside from him, was interviewed recently.

I wanna see the UK greens eclipse Reform. Zach is a very effective communicator & I’m really rooting for them! #nzpol
