Dear LinkdIn. I don’t need your encouragement. I only signed up to find one organisation I needed to contact. I don’t need Premium. I don’t want to connect with people I might know there. I don’t care who is searching for me. I’m sorry. I never meant to join. It was all a mistake.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.
