Labour have thrown trans people under a bus, this time decisively.
Why? Because of Nigel Farage's Reform UK.
And this explains the triumph of transphobia in certain countries: it's a byproduct of the rise of right-wing radicalism.

No Labour MP or activist should be allowed near an LGBT+ event again. They need to be treated the exact same way Tories are treated until they fix their shit heap of a party.
After Wes Streeting's decision to harm a generation of trans children for nothing but culture war and his own personal disgust I hope Labour are never welcome at another Pride for as long as he lives

So under-18s, who are cis are still proscribed puberty blockers?
This policy isn't based on facts but just transphobia.

A Labour MP reposting stuff like this with blatantly transphobic dogwhistles is about as clear as their transphobia comes.
Pretty gross considering Tracy Gilbert's constituency (Edinburgh North and Leith) has the largest number of queer people in Scotland.

None, because you're spineless cowards.

Yesterday the LGBT PLP gathered for a photo, diaries being what they are not everyone could be there, this is about 2/3 of us - MPs and peers.

At least one MP in that picture (Tracy Gilbert) has spoken against a conversion therapy ban and few support trans rights.
It doesn't really matter how many LGBT MPs there are, if none will actually support our community.

Honestly, I'm surprised the Greens did this mediocrely, they really seemed to be going after this ward.
Plus, Reform did way better than it should make people feel comfortable.
Either way come 2026, the SNP are losing one of there two seats here to Greens or Reform.

After Jan 6th I privately confronted Mace for lying about my story bc she too was terrified in her office.
I said as another assault survivor you know how harmful what you did is. Why? She said “whatever you know it’s a game, just points on the board”
