"They're deregulating how drugs are approved, these kinds of supplements are being sold," said @esqueer.net. "Meanwhile, they are cracking down on gender affirming care for trans youth and launching investigations against providers of gender affirming care."
He added: "I believe very strongly that women's wards should be for biological women. What do we do about tha biological female who is a trans man, looks, sounds, presents, lives, his life as a man is biologically female? We wouldn't put him on a women's ward. That would be degrading for him and humiliating And cruel.
Wes streeting admits what he is doing is "humilating and cruel".
But only for trans men (that look and sound man enough).
Perfectly happy to inflict cruelty and humiliation on trans women.

Defend trans people’s right to access spaces in line with their lived gender. Bring the UK back into line with its human rights obligations. The minimum we need from a new EHRC Code of Practice: Protect inclusive spaces and freedom of association from anti-trans lawfare.
🏛️ We all know what new guidance needs to do for it to improve this mess.
This is our 3 point test for a new Code of Practice, if these basic needs can't be fulfilled by our Equality Act - it will no longer be worth of the name.
We will keep pushing until we have equality. But we need your help ➡️
A year of hurt and harm. We know what happened next. They promised us this wouldn’t happen. Today is one year since the Supreme Court said their decision wouldn’t cause any disadvantage to trans people.
Our lives have become less free, less safe and less equal. Trans people have been kicked out of bathrooms, forced out of workplaces, and outed against their will. Both cis and trans people have experienced dangerous gender policing, putting their safety at risk. Trans women and girls have been torn away from their friends, in groups that wanted to remain inclusive. Where is the dignity? Where is the respect?
For trans people to be meaningfully protected by equality laws, they must protect our ability to live our lives as ourselves as Parliament intended. Any changes to guidance from this government will need to be more than trivial tweaks to make a difference to the mess this ruling has created. We need action from Labour to protect trans people, defend inclusive organisations and respect human rights - or we will see yet more years of legal protections being undermined and trans people harmed." Our team speaking to media on the anniversary
⚖️ One year ago, the Supreme Court promised us our rights were still protected.
🟰 Since then - our lives have become less free, less safe and less equal. Where is the dignity and respect in this?
📝 It's going to take more than minor tweaks to make a difference here.
What happens now? ➡️
We must accept now that the Code of Practice will be draconian. Unfortunately the Good Law Project Failed to defeat the interim guidance in court, now we face a Code of Practice that will amount to trans exclusion from public life.
Do not comply. I repeat do not comply. Let them sue, we won't obey
Goldmine is a good metaphor. Only the rich mining companies will earn a lot of money, and leave a lot of environmental destruction for everyone else...
I had no idea what song this is, but I looked it up on YouTube and then realised "I recognise this, my electrolysis technician plays this sometimes when I am being zapped. It's on her work playlist..."
Trans Rights are Human Rights
What a beautiful day of singing and dancing for trans rights. Lots of great female-led speeches.

Kennedy is a eugenicist.
His words and choices to date provide ample evidence of his deep hatred for disabled ‘weaker’ people. All his ‘policy’ is driven by one goal: make the population ‘fitter’ by ‘weeding out the unfit.’
Speak of him as the open, rank eugenicist he is.
Alex says "well, economy's fucked. Time to start camming." She asks herself "what's my niche?" She gets an idea. She has set up a sexual version of Cow Tools. Her friend says "I don't get it..."
I was going to say "cowgirl tools". But cowgirl means something else to what I was going for...

Dear Paul Knaggs.
As a fellow journalist, you know the importance of a right of reply. Why was one not obtained from the GLP and the individual of the harrassment complaint before publication? Would allow for your article to be balanced and unbiased.

Far right Soros conspiracy theories in a supposedly "left wing" article and publication. This is why labour needs consigning to the trash can of history. The good it ever achieved was decades ago. The Epstein class own it now.

A chart from Our World In Data, showing the shift away from coal power in the UK - nearly 70% of electricity production in the late 1980s, to less than 0.1% in 2025.
There's a lot being shared right now about China's incredible shift towards renewable energy - and rightly so.
But this, from the UK, is equally astonishing & encouraging.
It's not just that change can happen. It's that it *is* happening.

I do that too. Confusing places (and people/things) with similar names.
They do have some nice stuff in the sales.
The UK gov and NHS actually cite the increasing number of out trans people as a *justification* for banning trans healthcare for youth, and imposing their new Section 28, on the basis that it must signal a “social contagion”

A week or so ago I asked what the point of following Pink News on here was. Nobody had an answer.
Today, I'm asking again...
Pink News have now:
- Made journalists redundant in search of a ‘reporter-free newsroom’. This includes one of the UK’s only trans reporters covering our community, and many other talented queer reporters.
- Uncritically platformed Wes Streeting spinning taking healthcare away from trans kids.
I mean, they've sacked their journalists and this is pretty blatant disinformation so...
I don't know which is worse, the open gaslighting by Streeting, or Pinknews happily platforming him to do so.
I think both deserve our utter contempt!
Cuddle friend!
Wag the dog. Never realised how true it was.
This is just too funny 😁
Awwwww. I am not considering long distance additions to the polycule right now because I have enough local girlfriends, cuddle buddies and my enby spouse. But your attention is very sweet! 😊 ❤️ 🥰
I mean I have a kid who is 30. If someone is that age or younger I am not going to see a potential partner. My mother instinct kicks in instead. The line is probably around 40 at this point.
