Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. It hits particularly hard this year - a powerful reminder of why we fight, and a moment to reflect on those no longer with us.
May they rest in power.

After several difficult years for the trans community, we must continue to stand up for the rights of trans people across the UK and the world and fight discrimination wherever we find it #TransAwarenessWeek

Pretty sure it was a Tuesday
I’m old enough to remember when Conservative Party leaders believed in law and order.
Kemi Badenoch refusing to acknowledge that Tommy Robinson is "far-right", now on LBC, and refusing to condemn Elon Musk's words. In fact she says what Musk said *isn't* incitement. So what would be incitement then? How violent would his words have to be before he was deemed a threat to this country?

⚧️ As a Liberal Democrat, I stand with LGBTQ+ people and reject all discrimination. Trans women are women, trans men are men, and non-binary people are valid.
I’m proud to sign Lisa Smart MP’s letter urging the Minister to ensure the EHRC's Code of Conduct is subject to full parliamentary scrutiny.

4/n a KEY concern of the Cass review was that kids were getting meds too soon, too often, too much.
This study completely disproves that belief. Fewer than 10% of kids got any meds. 4.7% got puberty blockers. 8% got hormones.
Ever. At any point in their medical journey.

Important thread for trans women donating blood in the UK.
Just had a very apologetic phone call from a member of the clinical team at NHS Blood and Transplant to discuss my complaint from last week when I was not allowed to donate blood.

The proposal to test trans kids for autism smacks of the politics of RFK Junior. It pathologises two groups that deserve protection by the NHS (trans kids and autistic ones) in an attempt to remove their bodily autonomy. We should all see this for what it is: something that has no place in the UK.
