💥The fight goes on 💥

We are pleased to say that our case against the EHRC’s transphobic guidance will be heard in full in November.

This is just the beginning, and we’re ready to fight it, together.

The climate crisis is all around us.

We know how to fix it. We have the technology. But Keir Starmer refuses to step up to the challenge.

So we’re turning up the legal heat:

⚖️ If those answers are unsatisfactory, we intend to challenge Ofcom’s decision to whitewash TalkTV’s transphobia in court.

The Government needs to get serious about climate change. And it hasn't so we're suing. But this is the longest and most expensive legal letter Good Law Project has ever sent - and it involves a huge team of specialist lawyers. And we really could use your help. goodlaw.social/4cqi

84% of trans people polled by YouGov said Britain is “fairly unsafe” or “very unsafe” for trans people. A terrifying story - founded on actual data - which the BBC still refused to carry.

Educational charities like Policy Exchange are required to act in a balanced and non-politicised way. But Policy Exchange has flatly ignored those rules.

We’ve made a complaint to the Charity Commission:
https://goodlaw.social/xixz
Charity Commission guidance states that any values adopted by an educational charity must be “uncontroversial… generally supported by objective and informed people”, yet Policy Exchange’s output of reports and opinion pieces has repeatedly positioned it as an advocate for rightwing policies.

The ECHR defends your rights to speak out, to live freely, to be treated fairly.
When politicians attack it, they’re attacking us.
We need to fight back

Things must be bad when the Water UK CEO starts speaking sense on forever chemicals🫢

"This £70m that we're spending each and every year,that should be paid for by the chemical companies. It's really unfair for people through their water bills to have this added on top"
