In 2021 I had the honour of taking part in TedX Bath, where I talked about how trans people are dehumanised.
Since then its only got worse. Much, much worse.

Decided to unfollow the Greens & @zackpolanski.bsky.social.
Green 'leadership' on issues affecting trans people is little more that performative showboating, showing no understanding of nor willingness to engage meaningfully in addressing those issues.
Its also turning into a cult of personality.

So much for allyship or engaging with the trans community, let alone doing so meaningfully.

When are you going to engage meaninfully on the issues affecting trans people in the UK?
Seems a bit more important than goofing about.

Labour, the party of entrenched patriarchy & misogyny, and a threat to everyone not white, abled, straight & cisgender.
“Under the new guidance, places such as hospital wards, gyms and leisure centres will reportedly be able to question transgender women over whether they should be using single-sex services based on how they look, their behaviour or concerns raised by others.”

Absolutely fascinating & totally blows the SC 'judgement', tge EHRCs half arsed 'guidance' and UKs Govs insistence on following the SC out of the water.
2/ The instructions are just… fascinating? Well, every piece of public record I’ve uncovered on this subject so far has been fascinating, but this paragraph is exceptional.
It contradicts the Supreme Court directly, comprehensively, and unequivocally.

In response to the laughable fiction presented in the letter sent by Sex Matters to BBC Board members, we have sent a rebuttal letter to clarify the real facts, rather than their Orwellian tale.

Has the Equalities Minister changed her mind since she said the Supreme Court ruling provided "crystal clear" clarity?
In court last week, she seemed to suggest that the EHRC's guidance – was anything but clear.
