Donate to Labour for Trans Rights
Labour for Trans Rights relies on a small team of volunteers, and we rely on small donations to carry on the vital work we do campaigning for the trans community across the labour movement. Please co...
actionnetwork.org
Let's build on it now.
Labour for Trans Rights is a volunteer-led organisation, and unlike the gender critical lobby, we don't have any billionaire donors.
But with your donations, we'll take the campaign for trans equality to the heart of this Labour government.

Jesus turned the idea of power upside down, teaching that greatness isn’t about status or control, but humility, compassion, and the courage to put others first.
🤲As Christians on the Left, we believe politics at its best is service, to the poor, the marginalised, and the common good.

'Lord, you told us to love our neighbours as ourselves, but you never told us to ask where they were born or what papers they carry in their hands. You simply told us to love.' - from a clip posted on the Other Place of a priest turned away from giving communion at an ICE detention centre. Preach.

Despite my very strong reservations about Stand Up To Racism as an organisation, I was glad to attend the anti-racist march in Leeds today, because we need to make it very clear to the fascists that we don't want them in our city and we won't let them win.

We're grateful to both campaigns for engaging with us and answering our questions.
In our view, @lucympowell.bsky.social is the deputy leadership candidate that is better placed to advocate for trans rights within Labour.

My MP @alexsobel.co.uk is already a firm ally, but there are many essentially decent Labour MPs who don't yet have all the facts and just need a bit of nudging.

I am sickened by today’s attack in Manchester. Antisemitism is on the rise around the world, and we must do all we can to stomp it out. I am grateful to first responders and congregants who showed incredible bravery, and I am praying for those who were killed.
