An important takeaway – the High Court has made clear that the Code of Practice has gotten the law wrong. It will need to be rejected by the Minister.

FAQ: Trans inclusion after the High Court decision on the EHRC’s interim guidance | Good Law Project An explanation of where things stand for services and workplaces

Here are our FAQs on what the High Court's judgment means. goodlawproject.org/resource/faq...

Trans lives are real and they matter. The courts must recognise that The High Court’s decision is wrong and we will appeal it

"Judges swear an oath to 'do right to all manner of people after the laws and usages of this realm, without fear or favour, affection or ill will.' All manner of people and without fear or favour. We need to tell them that trans lives are real and they matter."

Trans lives are real and they matter. The courts must recognise that The High Court’s decision is wrong and we will appeal it

Today’s judgment makes one thing very clear: the reality of trans lives still goes ignored by the courts.

🕯 Today we pause to remember the trans people whose lives were taken by violence this year. Those lost to hatred, and those lost to the unbearable weight of living in a world that too often refuses to see their worth.

We hold every name and every story in our hearts.

The majority of the UK media, encouraged by the UK's equality body, is waging a campaign to encourage the public, employers and health providers to harass anyone who doesn't fit their definition of what a woman should look like.

This is what JK Rowling is funding.

Good Law Project's legal team standing outside of the Royal Courts of Justice

Our challenge to the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s interim guidance has begun in the High Court.

This is only one step in a long battle. But we’re ready to fight it.

Our team is in court and we’ll let you know as soon as the court reaches a decision.

My pleasure!

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

So yeah, @marcusto.bsky.social doesn't play.

His commissions are closed at the moment, but he usually takes them via @theartistbullpen.com.

Thanks Marcus! 🤩

Sage and Forge in their X-Force uniforms, one arm over the other's shoulder and fist-bumping. They're both smiling a small smile, looking straight ahead like they're posing for a photo. The piece is signed by Marcus To, in the lower right corner of the image.

Also, I asked @marcusto.bsky.social to draw me #Forge and #Sage looking like partners in crime, and now I own the nerdy duo of my dreams.

Black-and-white drawing of Forge. He's wearing a jacket over a shirt and bolo tie, and dressy trousers with a big belt buckle. His hair is tied back into a half ponytail and it flies gently behind him in an imaginary breeze. A loose strand falls by the side of his face. Make no mistake: he's hot. With the rolled up sleeves, the closed metal fist and the stern expression, the overall feel of the piece is ROOAARRRRRR. Marcus To's signature is in the lower right corner of the image.

If you don't fancy #Forge yet, get ready to start because LOOK AT THIS (my commission from @marcusto.bsky.social) 💙 🛠️

Hi Marcus! The commissions have arrived and they are GLORIOUS, thanks so much! I'll probably share them on my socials this weekend - please let me know if you'd rather I didn't for any reason. Thanks again and take care! X

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Could have watched 5 more episodes of this, easy. Very fun, and so beautiful.

💥The fight goes on 💥

We are pleased to say that our case against the EHRC’s transphobic guidance will be heard in full in November.

This is just the beginning, and we’re ready to fight it, together.

Tens of thousands of people take to streets for London Trans+ Pride 2025 Event becomes biggest of its kind as more than 100,000 turn out to support its ‘existence and resistance’ theme

From us in The Guardian yesterday:

"You look at the bathroom ban that’s being proposed and you sort of realise that, although we may consider the UK quite different from a country like America, it’s a bathroom ban that would make someone like Donald Trump proud"

A photo taken from inside a shop through the window looking outside. Outside on the street there are large crowds of protesters walking by and a large trans flag is carried in the middle.

A photo of the protesters holding lots of signs. The photo is framed by the leaves of a bush in the foreground.

A photo of a small hand crafted shark, resembling an IKEA Blåhaj plush, presumably made of wood or Papier-mâché, holding a small Palestine flag, being carried by a protester.
