Glad @helenmaguiremp.bsky.social has signed. Most folk are unaware that draft new EHRC Code has potential to muddy/erode human rights of trans and non-trans people in UK + create legal minefield for service providers. Write to MPs urgently to call for parliamentary debate and free vote on Code.
I’ve signed this letter calling for full parliamentary scrutiny of the EHRC’s guidance.
Trans people deserve clarity, dignity, and safe access to services - not uncertainty and exclusion. Parliament must ensure that any guidance reflects lived experience and protects everyone’s rights.

Great to see my MP @zoefranklinld.bsky.social has signed this letter.
Thank you.
If you have a Lib Dem MP it’s worth checking to see if they signed too. If not please ask, Why not? And direct them to this letter signed by their colleagues.

Trans people are anxiously waiting for the EHRC’s final guidance to be published, following its extreme and unworkable interim guidance. I know many are worried it will further the exclusion of trans people. I've written to govt to say that we MPs must be given time to debate it.

@stephengethins.bsky.social @eddavey.libdems.org.uk Please call on government to allow parliamentary debate and free vote on the new draft EHRC Code of Practice.
We delivered our joint letter to Parliament demanding full scrutiny, meaningful debate and a free vote for MPs on the new Code of Practice.

A pleasure to meet Helen Maguire MP today. I shared concerns about the EHRC's draft Code of Practice which would marginalise trans people and undermine the human rights of us all. Disturbingly, the Code is going for government approval without scrutiny/debate by Parliament. Make your MP aware.

Never thought I'd feel bound to march in London Pride! The attack on human rights of trans people in the UK is a shocking misdirection. If it is not stopped, I believe the hard-won rights of others - including women - will also be at risk.

I have had death threats for my work on trans rights. I have been stalked. I have had people try and have me thrown out of my University. I am by no means alone, and lots of trans-inclusive academics have spoken publicly about the violence and harassment they face. But no mention of that here.

Report’s author raises ‘stark concerns about barriers to academic freedom’
UK universities have failed to protect gender-critical academics from bullying and career-threatening restrictions on their research, according to a report.
The report, by Prof Alice Sullivan of University College London, recommends that students and staff “taking part in freedom-restricting harassment should face consequences commensurate with the seriousness of the offence”. Continue reading...
