Currently, on X, the gender-critical are complaining bitterly about windows and paint. Apparently, the damage thereof has interfered in their hate fest of trans people.
Nothing was said earlier in the week about this, though. ⬇️

Option 1: Sit on social media and moan.
Option 2: Advocate to the "decision makers."
That's why TransLucent is at the Labour Conference.

A huge thank you to everyone who voted for me in the Positive Role Model (Gender) Catergory - National Diversity Awards 2025.
Gender is not an LGBT category, so I was delighted to be shortlisted for the final eight.
Many congratulations to Alex Knight of STEMazing, the deserved winner!

Can you imagine an organisation that is meant to represent trans people would discriminated against trans women?
Note that they also use the word "identify" on their nomination form.
A scandal.

This evening, @transalliance.bsky.social launched our bid to become officers of LGBT Labour, which has failed to support the trans community for several years.
It's time for change. If you are an LGBT Labour member, please register to attend the AGM and support our slate.

I was the elected Women's Officer at Portsmouth Labour Party for three years. During my tenure, I increased the size of the Women's WhatsApp group twelvefold and won an Inspirational Woman of Portsmouth Award. Now, the party has banned me because I am transgender
Discrimination.

The likely situation is that this organisation would prefer to cancel the Labour Women's Conference than allow a trans woman to be a delegate.

I'm not a mum, although I was a single parent of three kids at one point, which felt like being both a mum and a dad.
However, on Mother's Day, what a lovely thought from one of my girls.

As we near the end of Endometriosis Awareness month, I was delighted to represent Endometriosis South Coast in a parliamentary event recently. The sad fact being, only Tory MPs attended. 😪

Having spent two full days at an NHS Women's Healthcare Conference, all I experienced was sisterhood and inclusion. The haters say they speak for women.
They don't.

It was an absolute pleasure to attend today's Hampshire and IOW Women's Healthcare Conference. One speaker, referencing her team's work, showed a PowerPoint slide.
The percentage of non-binary people taking part in her project?
Two per cent!
We are growing!

Oh, dear... LGBA is upset.
I was, likely the only trans person in the room. It wasn't bizarre, it was truthful.

The first city in the UK to adopt definitions of sexism, homophobia, biphobia and transphobia.

So, on one side, there is a human rights organisation with some 10 million supporters & over 60 years of experience in fighting human rights issues, and on the other side, there is a kids author regularly accused of transphobia and somehow thinking she is right? 🤔

Around eighty people turned out in freezing conditions to remember our dead in #Portsmouth tonight.
Thank you, Portsmouth City Council, for flying our flag at half mast, and thanks, too, to Portsmouth Trans Pride for allowing me to speak.

Yet, another train journey to London in the pursuance of #TransRightsAreHumanRights and then a vigil tonight to remember our dead #TDoR2024.
Over a period of twelve days, I will make three trips to our capital.
