An Al Jazeera undercover investigation has exposed extraordinary conversations involving the head of Turning Point UK and a violent criminal who claimed paramilitary connections. Given the organisation’s links across the British right, does this need to go much further than one investigation?

Water companies in England failed to report more than 50,000 sewage dumpings within the time required. Water companies routinely ignore laws, have 1,200+ criminal convictions, no exec prosecuted, no licence cancelled. Customers fleeced, human health damaged, environment harmed. Govts do nothing.

If attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *inclusion*, it would be all over the Times, Telegraph, Mail etc. This last weekend, attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *exclusion*. Crickets.

Riddle me this. If somebody donates £36 million to a political party and £5 million to its leader, how is the £5 million not political? Asking for a parliamentary standards commissioner.

80 year-olds with pro-Palestine signs: arrested as terrorists. Greens planning to block a road, to highlight an existential crisis: sent down for years. Masked far-right thugs blocking roads and ports, using intimidation, obstruction & threatening behaviour: no arrests. The real two-tier policing.

As someone who has been tweeted about personally by Rowling. And who spends my whole life trying to fight the damage caused by the litigation she funds. I think, personally, I would be less harmed by you giving me an actual kick in the ribs than watching the new Harry Potter & trying to justify it.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Jason's 30 marathons in 35 days was a life-defining achievement. And everything I have referenced so far was available for journalists to find. But they chose to claim there was "no evidence" of it happening. Imagine what that must have felt like for him 😢 11/

A bit overwhelmed this morning with my words quoted in the Metro, Standard, Mirror, Independent and even in Australia, but crickets, i’m told from the Times, Telegraph, Guardian and Daily Mail. I always ruminate about how I might have said it better, because the message is too important to mess up.

Today London Trans Pride was full of celebration, defiance, joy, tears, pride and protest. 150K trans+ people, allies, parents, partners, & children saying “ENOUGH” at the cruelty & blatant discrimination being targeted at trans+ people in the UK - much of it from our current government!

For the record. 150,000 people attended Trans Pride London 2026. We were protesting against - The Supreme Court Misjudgement & EHRC transphobic “guidance” - The harmful puberty-blocker ban - The child abuse that is Labour’s schools “guidance - Ongoing mainstream media disinformation & exclusion

Just wanna throw out there that people shouting at Zack Polanski for literally quoting me, a trans person working in this policy area, in my exact words. Was wild. Feel free to question *my* language choice (I will defend it) but shouting at someone else for quoting a trans expert seems unfair!

Today is International Non-Binary People's Day. Did you know? The date was chosen because it sits exactly halfway between International Women's Day and International Men's Day, recognising that not everyone fits neatly into a binary understanding of gender. #InternationalNonBinaryPeoplesDay

The very fact UK the anti-rights organisations are threatening to sue Amnesty International for stating facts is evidence that they truly are anti-rights. No decent organisation would sue Amnesty International. They are a highly credited and credible human rights group.

The Gender Critical couldn't handle the truth that they are the baddies. Anyone have an archived version? I screenshot the important bits. Be a real shame if they got shared.
