The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop.

Please use - and share with your networks.

The BBC must stop attacking trans people | Good Law Project
The right wing accusations of ‘pro-trans’ bias are back to front. It’s time for the BBC to live up to its duty to be impartial on trans issues.

Time to pull back the curtain on Nigel Farage’s Brexit tax avoidance con, the grand illusion sold as “taking back control,” designed to protect the untaxed wealth of Britain’s elite.
Let’s expose this deception for what it truly is, betrayal of the public disguised as patriotism.

Not many farmers would tell you that we need to eat less meat; that wealthy landowners shouldn’t moan about inheritance tax but should “pay the whole fucking lot”; & that Reform UK are “a load of rich rightwing toffs” 😂

The persecution of Germany's gay population began shortly after the Nazis took power. In 1933, the SA raided gay bars and organizations, and the Institute for Sexual Science in Berlin was looted and its materials burned in May of 1933. www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1935-t...

We need everyone - both trans people & allies - to work together & challenge the harmful impact of the EHRC consultation.

Please email your MP & the Minister For Equalities to let them know that services should be for everyone, and that trans people are welcomed, wanted & loved in our communities.
The EHRC is consulting on their draft Code of Practice following the Supreme Court’s judgement on the meaning of sex in the Equality Act. We urge you to email your MP & the MfE to tell them how you feel & let them know its crucial that services are for everyone: www.scottishtrans.org/emailfortran...
