Petition: Allow transgender people to self-identify their legal gender.
We believe the government should change legislation to make it easier for trans people of all ages to change their legal gender without an official diagnosis of gender dysphoria.

The language of "trans rights activists" is so sly. It implies none of us are average people who just want to support rights for trans people; people like me who can't organise their way out of a paper bag but can turn up to a protest. Trans people who just want to live and have better things to do!

Thousands of trans rights activists have been demonstrating in central London days after the Supreme Court ruled the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex.

Puberty blockers have been prescribed to kids since 1985. That means FORTY YEARS of clinical safety data. So, as they're *still* considered clinically safe for (cis) kids, the restrictions are simply anti-science bigotry masquerading as concern for (trans) kids' safety.
It won't stop here. Sign.

"It follows reports that billionaire Trump backer and far-right X owner Elon Musk is preparing to donate up to £80m to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party."
Even with this block, he can still buy the shares. He'll literally own the party, Starmer will lean further fash, and we'll end up with DOGE#2.

If you’ve already started calling it the Gulf of America instead of the Gulf of Mexico, you should have no trouble with someone’s preferred name and pronouns.

The Scottish Animal Welfare Commission has said cats present a threat to wild animals & set out proposals to protect wildlife in a report to ScotGov. The mendacious British nationalist media spins this into - The SNP considers banning your pet cat. This is how trust is lost in the media.

Go on then. Own up. Who said “it can’t get worse”?
Reform UK leads in an opinion poll for the first time. The appalling prospect of the racist Farage as Prime Minister is very real. This is what happens when Labour betrays working class people. Scotland must vote for independence in the 2026 Holyrood elections.

All that’s required for evil to triumph is for good people to say nothing.
NEW: Downing Street refuses to condemn the Trump administration for withdrawing from the Paris climate accord, saying it will not give a “running commentary” on executive orders. Also no comment on Elon Musk’s Nazi salutes. No 10 spokesman says he has not seen them.
