Twice yearly PrEP injections (lencapavir) is fine for people on gender affirming hormone therapy.

Globally, trans women are among those at greatest risk of acquiring HIV so this is really good news.

Lenacapavir PrEP Does Not Interfere With Hormone Therapy for Trans People
Levels of feminizing and masculinizing hormones remained generally comparable before and after lenacapavir administration.

So, Laura Kuenssberg's introduction to her interview with Mary-Ann Stephenson is just hideous.

Let me count the ways. 🧵

I just watched the Kuenssberg interview with Mary-Ann Stephenson in full, and congrats, it's actually far, far worse than the BBC news summary captures.

The exclusion of trans people from public and academic spaces, removal of protections by human rights institutions, dehumanising language used by state news media, judicial tolerance of trans directed hate crime, withdrawal of medical care: all of this is very familiar to genocide scholars.
Trans scholars being ‘pushed out of academia’, researchers warn
Universities ‘afraid to be trans inclusive’ after Supreme Court ruling and OfS Sussex fine, leaving staff fearing ‘hostile environment’

When transphobic “academics” complained about a “chilling effect” on their “research” they meant people describing their transphobic “research” as transphobic.

Now there is a REAL chilling effect for trans academics of top-down establishment measures like fines & toilet bans.

So Stephenson talks about;

"Compassion,
honesty,
dedication,
collaboration,
dignity,
fairness."

So stand by for,

cruelty,
dishonesty,
incompetence,
obsceneness,
&
unfairness.

The "collaboration" bit will remain but only with transphobes.

Eight people are on hunger strike, several apparently at imminent risk of dying, because our law punishes more harshly those opposing genocide than those supporting it. (And under a so-called Labour Government.)

How on earth did we get here? www.vashtimedia.com/hunger-strik...
The hunger strikers are in mortal danger. But the conditions they’re being kept in are already critical.
How the government and its prisons ignore strikers' basic rights and demands.

How the intense anti-trans bias functions in BBC News. It deploys extreme selection bias.

It makes a fuss about minor, irrelevant and inconsequential typos in the SPeggie tribunal judgement but fails to report at least 13 peer/reviewed critiques of The Cass Review.

Streeting has already interfered by careful selection of “researchers” associated with a designated anti-trans hate group to carry out an unethical and pseudoscientific “trial” designed to get the result he wants.

I've had some, limited, experience with employment tribunal judgments and judges working under considerable time pressure to write lengthy and detailed judgments often make clumsy errors of spelling, transcription and so on. That's axiomatically more likely true in the case of 300+ page judgments.

'The only way for people in this group to be confident that everyone will see them as either male of female – and, indeed, the only option for anyone who wants to be sure of never being questioned – is to play up to gender stereotypes.'

Exactly, this is taking is back to Victorian times.

I know it is just the law and all that , but it still jars to see ‘Graham Linehan cleared of harassment’ when I think of just how much he has harassed (and spread lies about) friends of mine and never been shy of bothering me either .

I hope every Labour MP considering whether to support Shabana Mahmood's asylum plans remembers Nigel Farage's assessment that the “Home Secretary sounds like a Reform supporter.”

If they support them they will too.

Hey Labour

Remember the majority of voters who believe in treating people decently and not stealing from those who've endured months and years of hardship fleeing war and persecution to seek a place of safety?

We're still over here 👋

How many Labour MPs got into politics in order to vote for stealing jewellery off of people seeking refuge from war and persecution?

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak".

But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.
In @yougov.co.uk polling of the trans community, to the best of our knowledge the first of its kind ever conducted, an astonishing 84% said Britain is “fairly unsafe” or “very unsafe” for trans people.

UK Govt: "What do you mean trans people are penalised in the UK? They are protected to BE themselves. OK, so we're trying to ban them from toilets, changing rooms, hospital wards, sports, women's groups, hostels, send them to mens prisons and generally dehumanise them.

But they 'can' be trans" 😒

Mahmoud originally said that the transphobic “guidance” from the EHRC should “not be challenged”, now she is saying it is “beyond reproach” even though it breaches basic human rights deliberately and unnecessarily.

She should come clean, she is just a bigot who wants to harm trans people.

Provoke and Publicise was originally used as a strategy by the racist segregationists about Central High School in Little Rock Arkansas in 1957 to try and enforce a different, but equally invalid form of apartheid. It involves provoking a response from the victims of oppression and then…

We also wrote over 4 months ago to the Brighton Centre and begged them to cancel hosting a de facto genocidal hate movement that wraps itself in the camouflage of feminism.
