When will Starmer learn that no matter how good his Nigel Farage impression gets, it won't save him from wipeout at the hands of Reform? Here's another idea - how about doing the work that's needed to actually make people's lives better? 🧵

This won't have much impact on net migration, but will hinder integration, promote "churn", and increase hardship.

Mean-spirited, unnecessary, and unpopular.

This morning @greenparty.org.uk has called for the EHRC’s harsh and ill-considered guidance on single-sex spaces to be withdrawn. As it stands the guidance puts trans people at risk of discrimination & violence, and clearly hasn’t been drawn up with trans people’s input. I’ll be pushing for better.

All this money & energy spent to make life more miserable for trans people could've been used to fight against domestic violence, wage disparity, sexual harassment, harassment of people accessing abortion services, proper childcare provision; you know, to make the world a better place instead.

regardless of today’s outcome, it is morally indefensible to have a court ruling on something that affects a population, using evidence and findings that did not consult a single member of that population.

We know that some days are harder than others, and processing trauma isn't always linear.

No one should ever be made to feel unsafe for being who they are. Remember, everyone deserves to live a life free from abuse and violence 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

If you want to speak to someone, we're here for you.

An important reminder as the Supreme Court makes its judgement - not a single trans person was heard from at any point during this case before them, even a trans judge who applied was refused.

This is, as usual, the British state acting as cis people to impose their will on trans people.

Insisting boys must be strong is “gender ideology.”

Telling girls to be nurturing is “gender ideology.”

Assuming that kids ought to grow up to be heterosexual and get married is “gender ideology.”

This gender ideology is everywhere. It just goes unnoticed because society mandates it as “normal.”

Gutted for Minah. She was an excellent traitor #TheTraitors
January 22, 2025 at 9:44 PM
Okay putting it out there - I think Charlotte is going to win. She’s not getting voted out and she’s going to throw Minah to the faithful towards the end. #TheTraitors

I can’t believe Charlotte is still pretending to be Welsh with Minah 🥲😂 #TheTraitors
