Labour does its own Pride at no 10 after being banned from national events. Notice the rainbow flags not progressive ones. Obviously Trans and intersex people not welcome !
Supermarkets have broken their plastic promises - and without pressure, they won't change. It's time for the government to step in. If enough of us speak out now, we can push them to take bold action in global talks this August. Sick of all the plastic? Add your name:

Heard about this from an endocrinologist at the Endo-ERN - European Reference Network general assembly. As an organisation they are very surportive of Transgender and Intersex people #EndoGA2025 apnews.com/article/swed...

A graphic reading "The richest 10% hold 57% of the wealth and the poorest 10% less than 5%. Let's do something about it."
The UK is one of the most unequal developed countries. The super-rich have taken huge amounts of wealth and power at our expense.
It's time to do something about it: people in more equal countries live longer, healthier, happier lives in stronger communities. We can do that here!
