We want the UK 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...

Trans Liberation emergency demo in Parliament Square, 1pm Sat 19th April (today, at time of writing).
Postscript:
Emerging LGBTQ rights were weaponised for political gain in the 1980s.
The same is happening now, with trans rights the focus of hostility.
I will stand up for trans rights and dignity.
Peaceful protest is powerful.

so Helen Lewis (Atlantic writer who wrote that White Lotus "post-woke" piece) is "gender critical"/TERF – she even has a GLAAD accountability page: glaad.org/gap/helen-le...
& she's excited about that show's "cross-dressing" scene because GC/TERFs have invented a batshit conspiracy theory about it:
Tightening PIP rules is nothing short of disastrous and all MPs know it. One disabled person asked me this week, “why is Labour creating a hostile environment for disabled people, Naomi?”

Serbia is witnessing its largest student movement since 1968, yet it's receiving minimal international coverage. Almost daily I get the question from my colleagues in Serbia why are the media not interested?
Join Prof Des Freedman, Marina Zec and me next Monday, February 10, 5:30 at Goldsmiths!
Crucial to be aware of this ongoing threat of ethnic cleansing.
In this moment, it's essential the UK govt turbocharges efforts towards Palestinian statehood and holds the US to account to ensure it keeps within the rule of law and respects human rights including self determination.
tomorrow marks three months since corruption and the arrogance of power claimed 15 lives in the northern city of novi sad. tonight, students from across serbia are gathering there. citizens have lined the streets to welcome them, and local students prepared beds for them to rest.
Studenti su napravili sajt preko kog možete da pratite današnji protest u Novom Sadu. Delite dalje da što više gradjana može da vidi.
