How will history remember this? The Supreme Court ruling has put trans people’s human rights at risk. Ask the Scottish Govt if they want to be remembered as standing up for trans people’s rights when it counted or, standing by when they were at risk: equalrecognition.eaction.org.uk/howwillthisb...

Scot Gov has defined sex in Scottish Hate Crime law as ‘biological sex’ as per the Supreme Court ruling. A choice they have made. We urge you to challenge that choice. Ask how they want to be remembered in the fight for trans equality & human rights: equalrecognition.eaction.org.uk/howwillthisb...

Today made me wish I hadn't called for help a month ago...had I been silent, I might not have to live through this. My friends saved me four weeks ago. That the UK Courts make me doubt living as a positive outcome should describe how distressed trans people in the UK feel.

Trans people in the UK would be well-advised to get accessible toilet keys. Get them from @essehouse.bsky.social and you can: A) get them for free if you need one B) pay & keep your money within a community initiative that's doing vital work to build the support framework the community needs.

The absurdity of all of this is that this is a result of interpreting the equality act from 2010 as somehow having mandated a bathroom ban that no one knew about for 16 years. The UK is completely cooked. All of this gratuitous cruelty aimed at 1% of the population.

A UK high court decision has implemented a full bathroom ban on trans employees. It does not apply to the public. So a trans woman working at tesco could be fired for using the bathroom at work that would be ok for her to use on her day off. Absurd. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/comp...

If you're reading the mainstream media headlines on the 'Keeping children safe in education' draft guidance and worrying about the kids being transed in kindergarten, please stop and take a peek at my blog, written with specific reference to Alice's experience at school.

We have made an easy tool to tell your MP about this, here:

This framing from The Times – focusing exclusively on employers – I think means that even they have realised just how significant the High Court decision is when it comes to trans inclusion by service providers. Time for the Code of Practice to be sent back.

The transphobic press have no incentive to give Labour credit for their transphobia and every incentive to push them to go further. Labour gain nothing by caving to them, and yet cave to them they will, out of a potent combination of hatred for trans people and political ineptitude.

You all saw the guidance that went out yesterday for trans kids in schools. Absolutely horrific stuff. This is how the right wing papers are covering that news. Times, Mail and Telegraph all have it on their front page, the first two as their main story of the day. Guardian's coverage included

"In short, the law does not require a bathroom ban." "unless toilets and changing rooms are provided in individual lockable rooms, then employers will be required to offer single-sex facilities – and these must be trans-exclusionary. " A confusing mess! goodlawproject.org/update/high-...

Great letter setting out the positives from today's GLP vs EHRC ruling. Phillipson must now do what we've been asking for all along: send the draft Services Code of Practice back to the EHRC to be re-written to explain that trans inclusion in gender-aligned services remains entirely lawful.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women." Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration. It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. Our latest.

If you can, please consider joining me in donating to the appeal fund. Every British worker deserves dignity on the job, and toilet cops need to stop taking the piss! goodlawproject.org/donate/

Quite apart from it being unworkable and maybe against human rights law (appeal pending!) it’s obviously morally unacceptable that some people could be segregated even if we’ve done nothing wrong. It’s prejudice: literally pre-judging us based on how we were born. No way!

Today’s High Court ruling found trans employees may be segregated in British changing rooms and toilets. I’ve written to my union, @actorsequity.bsky.social , to ask how we’ll be fighting to ensure govt guidance doesn’t permit that. British actors deserve dignity at work and that means *all* of us.

We know the Code of Practice is wrong in law. But we need your help to make sure it gets sent back. Write to your MP with our quick and easy tool, here 👇

For people who think this is only new legislation and does not change the Supreme Court decision. No. The existence of section 14 was a very good indication that gender reassignment changes sex. Bringing it into force is in clear defiance of the judgment.

It’s simply one SI. Bring into force dual characteristics discrimination, amend Schedule 3 and you’re done.

Ackshually they can just change the Supreme Court decision. They refuse to.

Dismissing being outed as "mere gossip" is to be (or pretend to be) oblivious to the prejudice and violence that can face trans people if we are noticed.

A reminder that anti-trans rhetoric was fabricated by far-right evangelicals. They are following their plan set out in 2017, to 'divide and conquer', which is a plan designed to destroy LGBTQ+, and for women to be put in 'their place'

Context. The words of Helen Joyce, of anti-trans hate-group Sex Matters:

The judge thinks "gossip" and harrasment are the same thing. They are not. The threat of being outed is harrasment, not gossip. goodlawproject.org/trans-lives-...

Today's ruling on the EHRC's interim guidance is a disappointing, confusing and mixed picture. A trans woman who is a customer in a café can use the women's toilets, but if she works there she might not be able to. Once again everyday life is being made a legal labyrinth for trans people.

We've written to Bridget Phillipson to point out she's legally obliged to reject the EHRC's draft guidance The Government committed in its manifesto to “remove indignities for trans people”. We're asking that they take steps to protect the trans community & correct what the Supreme Court got wrong

So grateful for the cross-party support we’ve seen from politicians in LGBT History month. Humbled to to have reassurance from Lord Cashman that our message is definitely being heard 🙏

Don't hold back there, Stonewall...🙄

There are viral calls to mass institutionalize trans people. Major media outlets are running salacious articles with headlines like this "Are cross-sex drugs driving trans shooters to kill?" It's a feeding frenzy using this shooting as an excuse to go after trans people even harder. It's sickening.

I can't overstate just how much of a disinformation weapon X has becomeand it's being targeted at trans people in particular. A 6 year old video is going around being passed off as the shooter. Fake images are circulating like crazy along with outright genocidal language.

Have you seen the guidance the UK Govt has just issued to schools, making social transitioning a safeguarding issue. One day ahead of the High Court judgement on the challenge to the EHRC guidance to the UKSC judgement?

Can we get a strong statement on this @zackpolanski.bsky.social, show people there is another way, another choice. I think trans people could do with hearing someone vocally standing up today. Thanks.

"Other support", sounds like conversion therapy to me!

Telling parents is downright dangerous. It will very clearly put many trans and non-binary young people at risk of abuse, bullying, potentially homelessness, among other things. This is the exact opposite of "protecting children". It's transphobia as policy.

The equality and human rights commission under the new Labour appointed chief is snubbing trans rights organisations (which it has a public sector duty to engage with) in favour of anti trans rights organisations (which it has a obligation to at listen to, but which are not a protected group).

Mary Ann Stephenson asked people to judge her on her actions in her new role, not in her previous documented support for anti trans activists. It looks like she's just doing more of what she used to do.

The EHRC has one job: acting as a watchdog defending the human rights of and promoting good relations between the 9 protected characteristics, of which trans people are one such protected characteristic. Mary Ann Stephenson is using the role to empower her friends in the anti trans movement.

Please everyone when guidance is available PLEASE RESPOND to this consultation- we need supportive voices to be heard, especially parents and carers of kids. ALSO scotland currently has its consultation ongoing for its version of this. its better but not much www.scottishtrans.org/protect-tran...

My kid is in the background, chatting to me about her day as I type this. I am distracted & feeling sick. I'm trying not to cry. I don't know what to say to her. She's already been failed so many times. Its so fucking unfair.

I don't know how to function in a world that is so continuously cruel. Where so many will celebrate this pointless, pointless harm. This will devastate a tiny minority. It will benefit no-one. So many across our country will comply with this violence. So many others will stand silent.

I am beyond angry at the way trans children are being systematically persecuted. The full power, violence and force of our state is smashing down onto them, making their life impossible.

Trans kids are already pushed out of education. Denied qualifications. Denied a future. This will push so many more trans kids out of education entirely. How can I send my own daughter to school with this law in place? She would not cope.

I am one of the most published academics on the childhood social transition, with 5 peer reviewed articles that relate to the topic. There is so much evidence of benefit of social transition. There is no evidence of harm. Not one jot. This will literally kill trans kids. No exaggeration.

It announces: Heavy restrictions on any social transition (which in any case would be very limited, see above). Social transition to be hardly ever allowed at primary school. Heavily pushed under psychological scrutiny. Supportive parents deemed suspect & linked to need for safeguarding.

New School Guidance announces: Full bathroom ban. Full PE ban. Full school trip accommodation ban. Trans kids will not go to the bathroom, do PE or go on any school trips. 1/

Trans folk and allies, flood this. It won’t stop them doing irreparable damage to trans kids in schools but in twenty years when this gets studied we’ll be able to say they knew the consequences and how poorly received it was. consult.education.gov.uk/independent-...

Existing as a trans person in the year of our genocide 2026 is waking up every day to see which country is actively trying to kill you most publicly that day. 😒 The UK looks to pull out ahead today, but it's still early in the states.
