The media want another Jason Arday...

NHS England claim "privacy, dignity and respect" when talking about their new guidance on single-sex accommodation in hospitals. However, their own *unpublished* impact assessment says otherwise. Read the assessment and don't keep it a secret, share it with your MP.

New NHS England guidance on hospital accommodation risks making an already difficult experience even harder for trans+ people. As women, we know how it feels when our concerns aren't heard or our needs aren't taken seriously. We wouldn't wish that on anyone. 👉 notinourname.org.uk/everyone-des...

Well this bizarre, unnecessary, cruel and prejudiced guidance has already take one directly accountable life! It must go, and the vile prejudiced legal rail that brought us to this.

We need to ban data centers.

Bethany wore a “Protect The Dolls” t-shirt during rehearsals. The BBC posted it on their socials then quietly deleted and reposted it without showing her from the front. On TV last night they actually blurred the message #Strictly

At its core transphobia is a rejection of trans identities or the belief that trans people should not be visible and able to participate in public life. transactual.org.uk/blog/2026/10...

Since Senegal’s anti-LGBT+ bill was passed into law, the situation has worsened. No one should face imprisonment just for being who they are. Sign to repeal this law. a.allout.org/s/Pa3jX/

Yay, I spoke to conferance :)

A personal message to @andyburnham.bsky.social from the patron of your favourite football team’s LGBT supporters group, @rainbowtoffees.bsky.social ✌️🏳️‍⚧️

Trans people deserve equality. I'm joining the mass lobby on 9th September. The government wants us to accept laws that are broken quietly. We won’t. www.transsolidarityalliance.com/mass-lobby-2...

Amazing artwork, and excellent comic strip detailing how @amnestyuk.bsky.social have caved to a SLAPP campaign against them, simply because they spoke up for a marginalised community. ANTI-TRANS = ANTI-RIGHTS

When Phillipson claims cis women will be safer by banning trans women from women’s spaces, she is lying. All empirical & real-world data shows this is a lie. Phillipson is a liar, & she is lying about trans people. Making a marginalised minority seem dangerous is in every fascist playbook.

The hype around Lia Thomas was a manufactured moral panic, full of false claims of trans people stealing awards from cis women. Science backs up that we do not hold an advantage. So, even if a trans person dominated their sport, this would not be a reason for exclusion. It just means she is good

Reposting this; Labour’s new schools’ “Section 28” for trans kids should really be called Labour’s “Ambient Conversion Therapy”. It is way, way worse than Section 28 ever was. We must never allow anyone to forget Starmer’s & Philippson’s culpability (& Burnham’s if he fails to change it).

We stand with Amnesty International UK. Freedom of expression isn't a one-way street. If organisations demand the right to criticise others, they must also accept the right to be criticised. Read our statement on why this matters for democracy and human rights.

Important takeaways: - The anti-trans movement has access to hundreds of millions of $ - The vast majority of this funding comes from the Christian right, American organisations, and anti-women groups - When we were saying this as far back as 2019 we were called conspiracy theorists

With trans rights under attack as never before, we need to show our support for the trans community. Will you join us? goodlawproject.org/s/d23a8a

So far Burnham has avoided all key litmus issues, including; -Gaza -free speech/protest -trans people’s human rights/government transphobia -taxing the rich/media reform -fair votes/PR -Brexit -immigration/asylum/government racism -undoing the social media ban -zero-hours/gig economy/AI threats

“These are not small side-issues. They directly affect the lives of millions. Brits who, say, are married to someone on a visa route, or have trans family, will also be impacted. Taken together, the country is a much, much more illiberal place than it was two years ago.”

I certainly won't. My red lines:- Amend the Equality Act to make it trans inclusive again. Rejoin the EU Condemn what Israel is doing in Gasa, Syria & Lebanon. So absolutely NO CHANCE!

Tech billionaires are getting richer while we pay the price for the real-world harm their platforms cause. The "neutral host" loophole lets them off the hook for pushing dangerous content. MPs are demanding emergency laws to make them pay. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

@stonewalluk.bsky.social You should be ashamed that activism like this against your actions is happening. It time you lived up to very history of your name.

EDM 240 is now at 142 signatures which is the most supported EDM since 2021, the next milestone is 151. Keep pushing this, if you haven't already email your MP. If your MP is a Labour MP it maybe worth reminding them that over 70 MPs that have signed are from their party.

🚨URGENT: Sign and share our petition. ❗KKR, the predatory US private equity firm lined up to rescue Thames Water, has pulled out. Thames Water is back in crisis. It's time for Steve Reed to cut the 💩and bring it into public hands. vist.ly/3n529qc

"The review team make it clear how they weigh 'short term' access to care against the vague potential of harm...[,] did not uncover a single instance where any harm has occurred...[, and]found that for 56 patients initially reviewed, a medical route was not taken."

This makes me soo angry!

Struth! The Supreme Corrupt! I have no faith in this institution whatsoever.

We’d love it if you could write to your MP to invite them to attend. To make this as easy as possible, we’ve created a message template and guide: notinourname.org.uk/nion-women-head-to-parliament Anyone can email, just don’t forget to personalise your letter! Thank you, and happy writing! 🩵🩶💛🩷

We need to start getting trans people and allies together to start planning civil disobedience in different local areas, targeting venues/organisations that operate a trans-exclusionary policy. Civil disobedience needs to be thought out carefully to achieve maximum effectiveness.

I just don't know anyone can have faith in justice prevailing atm. Constantly, over and over again, the most brazenly unjust, irrational bullshit thing happens and then we just move onto the next one

I recorded this the morning after Bridget Philipson laid the updated EHRC guidance before parliament at the last minuet before recess so as to see it gets minimum scrutiny. This guidance is still transphobic and that this government is doing this is shameful.

Lets hold the Government to its promise! No new oil and gas in our seas. Offshore drilling causes hundreds of toxic spills, deafens whales, and won't even lower our energy bills. It's time to stop letting Big Oil profit at the expense of our ocean. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...
