May thanks to the brave people who stood together topless outside Downing Street gates.

Standing in such a vulnerable position like this was a metaphor for how vulnerable the trans community feels at this time.

You have our admiration and gratitude for joining this symbolic protest.

Numbers political parties need to fear if they wish to keep power.
🧵 One of the big revolutions in the West, which has crept in almost unnoticed, is the decline in the stigma of identifying as LGBTQ. Year, after year the % of ppl who identify as LGBTQ increases. It is now a significant group. Ppl in their 40s, & above, are probably unaware of how much. [1]

The “guidance” that wasn’t “guidance” as claimed by the EHRC is having its intended effect.
They intended this all along.

People still want to play nice with these people?
Well. I am cancelling my GymGroup membership because they are happily abiding by the flawed EHRC interim guidance and instituting transphobic policies. Please share this so that other queer members have this info and can make informed choices.

In light of the person coming forward who claims to be at the centre of the M&S issue saying her management are supportive we have chosen to pause the booking campaign.

Hopefully M&S this as person claims nationally and not just locally. We shall see.

In the meantime don’t book anymore please.
M&S says its bra fittings are for 'biological females'
Marks and Spencer has confirmed its bra fittings are for 'biological females', after a trans employee asked if a customer needed any help.

I wonder how many transphobes have signed this petition…. My guess very few as most don’t give a shit about women.

Agreed, gender critical is definitely an ideology of hate.

Pass it on.
Gender Critical is an ideology of hate!

Pass it on.

Exactly community action…
And from the safety of your sofa as well.
M&S declaring that they intend to break the Equality Act for those with the s7 protected characteristic is absolutely ripe for targeted community action:

Time for some topless swimming.
Virgin Gyms adopts Gender Critical Ideology claiming sex specific spaces are "the law", despite the clear guidance from the EHRC that there's no legal obligation.

Long 🧵 on our thinking on the subprime court came to its conclusion and why we think its wrong.

Comments welcome, preferably post by post to correct any errors in thinking, we are big girls and boys and can handle the feedback 😊

Add you name to the long list of educators, parents and public figures that have already done so.

Our kids were let down under Section 28. I was one of them. It scarred me deeply and I’m far from unique. We must not fail them again.

So given the latest from the EHRC we need a new protest event that gets us in front of MPs….

I’d say Wednesday the 3rd of September. It’s the first PMQ’s after the recess..

Maybe a rally outside parliament?

I bet not a single one of them was trans or LGBTQ….
It’s almost like the screaming about protecting women and girls and framing trans women as a risk is just operating to shield the true perpetrators from scrutiny…

Hi everyone,

We are looking to stage our next demonstration. This time to show how impossible it is for public service providers to police the subprime court ruling.

It will involve trans women swimming topless this time.

Anti trans hate group Sex matters is attempting to an inclusive outdoor swimming organisation to court to force them to exclude trans women even tho the members of the organization overwhelmingly voted to remain inclusive.

Help stop this abuse of the law and help fund their defence of inclusion.

The anti trans grifters keep claiming trans women are a risk to kids, I think the need to look closer to home.

Response to the EHRC “consultation” submitted.
Not typed so much in years.
And Deliberately submitted 2mins before the deadline...

Yet more examples of anti trans haters being aggressive and hateful to LGBTQ people..
This one is a ReformUK Plc council member.
One of JK Rowling's TERF friends was just arrested for assaulting a pregnant woman and a 10 year old child. She threatened to post pictures of them on Facebook calling them pedophiles for being at a LGBTQ event.

We told you this would happen.
June 29, 2025 at 2:09 PM
So the narrative is the anti trans groups are just “protecting women rights”

But women say “not in our name!”

@sarahowen.org.uk why can’t Baroness Faulkner ever answer a question about trans people without turning it to how to protect “biological women”

Please share in your networks outside BlueSky - and allow us to contact you going forward. Our one advantage is that we are many - and they are few.
The EHRC Guidance is a wicked exercise in removing rights from trans people - and is bad too for employers and service providers, those outside gender norms, people with disabilities and the economy.

We've created a tool to make it easy to respond. Please use and share. goodlaw.social/9e59e9
