It's pretty clear to us that implementation of the Sullivan 'review' breaches UK GDPR obligations. EU GDPR, identical to ours, says you can't process data about the sex assigned at birth of trans people unless there is a very good reason for doing so. And we are active in this space.
📣 Today @felicitycallard.bsky.social and I have published the first peer-reviewed response to the 'Sullivan Review' of research and data on sex and gender.
doi.org/10.1111/tran...
The Review could threaten trans rights and inclusion, erode academic freedom, and undermine research quality.

"Contrary to baseless assertions that movements to defund and abolish prisons, police, and ICE are partially to blame for where we find ourselves, the refusal to heed these calls is precisely what paved the way for the current regime," @dreanyc123.bsky.social writes.

Abolition Is Still the Only Way Out of This
Forget the useless so-called “reforms” to ICE and policing currently on offer. We need much more fundamental change.

So… not only did we have TP uk marching in uniform in Soho not long ago, but now teenage boys are attacking women in brothels for TikTok views whilst pretending to care about trafficking. Comments on such posts are disgusting and really troubling.

One of the biggest signs that the UK is a deeply sick society is how much it hates and fears children.
I have pointed out to some older people that if you take away the funding/spaces for youth clubs and the like, you can't be surprised they try and find some place to hang out and mingle.

I hate seasons being released in parts. It’s not enjoyable. It’s frustrating. Esp when it’s a show where you already know the ending or there’s some long-running misunderstanding or lie that’s already going on too long (looking at you bridgerton. We have all read Cinderella)
