“We’re seeing LGBT topics and education initiatives like ours being weaponised and misrepresented to distract from decades of consecutive economic failure that have made people’s lives harder.”

“We’ve had the Me Too movement, which rightly and accurately called out men’s violence against women. We had equal marriage. We had Black Lives Matter. A lot of what we’re seeing now culturally is the last-gasp backlash to that progress.”

“There seems to be a culture just now that has shifted back in time, when it’s cool to be cruel again. The rise of the so-called “manosphere” online and normalisation of hate has had an impact on young people.”

“As I was starting to see us lurch to the right. I was seeing things and hearing things that I would have seen and heard in the 1980s.”

🎥 Watch Susie McCabe’s exclusive interview with @jamesmcenaney.bsky.social about LGBT Inclusive Education, the current climate, and growing up under Section 28.

Absolutely delighted to march alongside @tie.scot today. Their work is, sadly, a vital part of education and I’m proud to ensure all children and young people feel seen, heard and included ☺️ #Pride2025

Talking to @susiemccabecomedy.bsky.social about her experiences of education, the discrimination that LGBT people still face, and her decision to become a patron of @tie.scot was really interesting, and we've decided to release the full interview here: www.heraldscotland.com/news/2532464...

🏳️‍🌈 Ten years of TIE 🏳️‍🌈

Today the Herald on Sunday is running a special package about the fight for LGBT-inclusive education in schools.

It includes exclusive interviews with the founders of the campaign, as well as TIE patron Susie McCabe, and much more.

Yesterday was Glasgow Pride, and I joined the @tie.scot campaign and @eisunion.bsky.social on the march.

Inside the ten year campaign for LGBT-inclusive education For the past ten years, Jordan Daly and Liam Stevenson have worked to transform the experiences of young people across Scotland.

“When I speak to other parents and carers across the country, both in my personal life and through this work, I hear overwhelming support for this kind of common sense education, and recent polling reflects that too.”

“I pay tribute to those teachers and LGBT staff working in our schools today; to the allies working to make a difference and to the next generation who – I know – will never allow us to return to the dark days of Section 28.”

✍️ Cabinet Secretary for Education and Skills, Jenny Gilruth.

TIE changed my life - now I'll stand with them as they help others Gemma McLaughlin explains how a school assembly gave her hope for the future and the courage to be herself.

“Shortly after that day, where I cried on the way home to my mum, not out of sadness, but a then elusive thing I can now name as hope, I made a decision. I came out.”

✍️ Gemma was S1 when we worked with her school. Years later, she writes about the impact for The Herald @jamesmcenaney.bsky.social

A very good day to the woman who, as her partner apparently stopped and started to tell her he was going to have a go at the two MSPs I was cutting about with, just firmly went "no we're not" and physically yanked him away - a legend, an icon, a queen, sorry about your terrible partner

After the Sandie Peggie tribunal I’m looking forward to the Scottish media covering all employment tribunals with such intensity. At last we’ll get in-depth reporting on workers rights, low pay & unfair dismissal

Unless of course there’s some other reason for the obsession. What could it be though?

Kelly Given: Our progress on LGBT+ education cannot be taken for granted ON Saturday, I celebrated 10 years of the Time for Inclusive Education (Tie) campaign with the many friends and colleagues I’ve met along the way

“Inclusive education is not about being “woke” or meeting diversity targets or indoctrinating children. It’s about making sure that the next generation grows up knowing that being LGBT isn’t shameful or controversial, it’s a human experience like any other.”

So pleased my book of plays has arrived. Now available on Amazon and at any bookstore with the ISBN. A few author copies on their way to @alisonmitchelluofg.bsky.social @kirstyferns.bsky.social @liam.tie.scot @tie.scot 🙏

I’ll never forget the loading sound.

We need you to stand up and speak out, now! Trans rights are vital and we need everyone to work together to protect them.

There are men who don't believe women have a right to bodily autonomy currently writing articles celebrating today's ruling as a victory for women's rights.

Party leader consensus at LGBTI hustings The five Scottish party leaders talk gender-neutral passports and combating bullying at the LGBTI election hustings.

Nine years ago today an LGBTI hustings event took place in the run-up to the 2016 Scottish election. Every main party leader attended, and all agreed on straightforward equality issues that needed to be pursued by the parliament.

Have a read of this. It's like something from a parallel universe.

We are devastated that Christina McKelvie has passed. Christina was a remarkable woman: a force of nature, compassionate, and incredibly warm. We shared many values with her and know how committed Christina was to social justice, equality, and to doing everything she could to make Scotland the best it could be. In doing so, she was the best of us. Christina was a formidable Member of the Scottish Parliament and one of the earliest supporters of our work. She played a pivotal role in ensuring that Scotland became the first country in the world to advance LGBT Inclusive Education. We will cherish the memories that we were privileged to create with her. Our thoughts are with Keith, Jack, Lewis and all who knew and loved her. We will miss you, Christina. - Jordan & Liam, Directors and Co-Founders of Time for Inclusive Education (TIE)
