“The courts are not the paramount legal framers in the UK, that would be the UK Parliament. All Parliament needs do is pass legislation stating that trans people are who they affirm themselves to be, and not a social problem requiring exorcism from society.”

Yet Parliament shirks responsibility! 😣

My face says it all here.

Transphobes are such a bizarre bunch. All feeding off each others hate.

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia.

This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give.

How are Reform getting away with this?

Tis the Halloween season, and I'd like to recommend a terrifying movie, also disgusting.

The whiter the area the more likely it is to have a Reform problem. Immigration isn’t the problem, otherwise you’d get Reform in more diverse areas - it’s fear of change among older people.

Great piece raising the alarm about the possible disaster the Levy Review may be to under-25's trans healthcare.

Being trans in the UK requires a constant, exhausting vigilance about your own rights and healthcare that wider society is often blind to.

Transitioning in spite of that is powerful.

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home.

I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

Hmmmm. "The Home Secretary has said it is unacceptable for a European human rights watchdog to “question the validity” of the Supreme Court ruling".

Except the Commissioner didn't question the "validity" of the Supreme Court ruling, he questioned its fairness.

The silence of the Westminster lobby as one of their own backs calls for me — an elected Member of Parliament — to be deported is telling.

No condemnation, just bootlicking of their proprietors and jostling for Zone 2 dinner party invites.

Our media class is rotten to the core.
