I don't need to wonder
"I will not put up with this shit. I have been beaten. I have had my nose broken. I have been thrown in jail. I have lost my job. I have lost my apartment for gay liberation and you all treat me this way? What the fuck's wrong with you all? Think about that!" - Sylvia Rivera

EU’s top court finds Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ law in breach of key values ECJ says law passed in 2021 is discriminatory and ‘contrary to the identity of the union’, in early test for new PM

“The EU’s highest court has found Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ law to be discriminatory, stigmatising and in breach of basic democratic values…”

This is a crucial decision. The court rejected the political claim that LGBTQ+ representation is “propaganda.” We must keep fighting politics that dehumanise us.

Steph Paton: Not a great start from Kezia Dugdale as the new Stonewall chair OF all the things that unite the experience of being a trans person in 2026, “disappointment” is one

'If I had a time machine and the means to zap the activists of the Stonewall riot to the offices of Dugdale today, I wonder how they would react to what Stonewall has become.'

Come on, look up, and see that Keira Bell, the GC movement's primary "detransitoner," has Christian Right legal representation, and is big fan of Far Right icon Tommy Robinson, and yet is being laundered to the UK press and the public as "caring about children." Heard that one before, right?

Kezia Dugdale has launched into her new role with a commitment to making Stonewall even more toothless and irrelevant than it was already.

Asked about JK Rowling’s opposition to trans rights, Dugdale said: “I have a huge respect for JK Rowling. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her before and I think her story and how she came to be this prolific, incredible children’s writer in this city as a single mum writing in a cafe is phenomenal and an inspiration to so many women across the world.

“I think she’s been a really powerful political advocate [for] improving the lot of single mums, making a case for tackling poverty and inequality in all its forms, and there is absolutely a place for her in public life to share her experiences and tell her story and make a difference.”

If you are standing or supporting the Labour party in Scotland this election, you are an enemy to the LGBTQ+ community.

There is no nuance here. You're either on the side of human rights or you are not.

A vote for Scottish Labour is a vote for an explicitly anti-trans manifesto. Hang your heads in shame.

Britain Still Has Conversion Therapists. Here’s Why.
Britain Still Has Conversion Therapists. Here’s Why. YouTube video by Philosophy Tube

The response to the conversion therapy video has been amazing. I’ve gotten messages from lots of NHS staff appalled to learn about the present-day abuses, who want to hold senior managers to account. As I say in the video, allowing this abuse undermines the entire NHS! 🏥

What is the UK government doing to stop this❓

Why hasn’t Starmer halted the US use of UK bases❓

Why hasn’t the UK already denounced this madman and suspended military cooperation❓

Has the UK government abdicated all responsibility for international law and public interest❓

The lunatic said “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

This clown show of a Labour Government can’t escape its own record OH what a tangled web Labour weave. Having spent the better part of their time in Downing Street ceding ground to the far right, the UK Government…

People may have short memories, Keir – but not so short we don’t remember the Labour Party of just last year.
