MIKE NESBITT IS SACRIFICING TRANS PEOPLE TO SAVE HIS CAREER Mike Nesbitt has decided that trans people are expendable. By commissioning Hilary Cass to “review” gender services in Northern Ireland, he has imported a discredited, dangerous process that has already devastated lives in England. Cass’s work is not independent, it is not neutral, it is a weapon and Nesbitt is using it against us. This is not leadership. This is not “evidence-based.” This is cowardice, cruelty, and careerism. And it will kill people. Trans people here already face obscene waiting lists, neglect, and systemic discrimination. Some of us are forced to self-medicate. Some of us are dying. And instead of fixing that crisis, Nesbitt has chosen to sacrifice us for his own survival. He is not fit to be Health Minister. He is a fucking disgrace. And to the so-called “allies”: Naomi Long. Michelle O’Neill. Claire Hanna. You and your parties march at Pride. You post rainbows every June. You brand yourselves “progressive.” But when Mike Nesbitt hands trans people over to Hilary Cass, you are silent. That silence is betrayal of trans people, of your own voters, of the values you pretend to stand for. If you cannot find the courage to stand with us now, then stop calling yourselves allies. Because you’re fucking not. Let us be crystal clear: Causeway Pride will never again be a stage for liars and opportunists. If you won’t fight for us when it matters, don’t you dare come looking for applause later. You will NEVER again be welcome.

In the centre is a flowering bluebell with out of focus shrubbery in the background.

A flowering bluebell with a tree directly behind it. There's moss on the tree to the left and right of the bluebell.

A bunch of bluebells in a forest. Behind the bluebells is a fallen tree.

The Bluebells are here!

Just to the left of the centre is building with a curved roof and to the right four sailing boats out off the water on stands. The photo was taken from above at the start of the Granite Steps.

This is beyond embarrassing

The Future of Gender-Affirming Care — A Law and Policy Perspective on the Cass Review | NEJM The Cass Review on gender-affirming care, which has been used to justify bans in U.S. states, transgresses medical law, policy, and practice, which puts it at odds with mainstream U.S. expert guide...

It would not have been legal to publish the Cass Review in the United States. It fails basic scientific procedures because it is not peer-reviewed.

Fucking corrupt scum

Leaked Meta Rules: Users Are Free to Post “Mexican Immigrants Are Trash!” or “Trans People Are Immoral” Facebook now allows attacks on immigrants and trans people, and posts like “Mexican immigrants are trash!” and “I’m a proud racist.”

NEW: I've obtained internal Meta docs revealing an array of sample posts that are now allowed under new hate speech rules. Examples include calling children "trannies," “Jews are flat out greedier than Christians," and “immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit”

Well shit, thanks for the heads up

Jessie Signal is here being a cunt and the mods aren't doing anything about it.

Trans Pride NI SILENT PROTEST. We are calling for a silent protest outside Stormont this Thursday to protest against the banning of puberty blocks for trans kids. #TRANSKIDSDESERVEBETTER

After the news that the NI Executive will ban puberty blockers 'indefinitely', Trans Pride NI are organising a silent protest at Stormont on Thursday 12 December at 5pm.

Please share widely as we need to get as many people there as possible.

Thanks

But why won't you show us the evidence? Are we too dumb?

2/
But your party made sure trans kids in Northern Ireland can be part of the highly unethical trials into puberty blockers.

All because of the internationally discredited Cass report created by the Tories to further their cultural war.

The Alliance party is both disappointing & embarrassing.

1/
And the very next day you and your party betrayed and sacrificed the rights of trans kids.

Drugs so dangerous they didn't ban them for kids already taking them or children who are not trans that need them.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people's experiences of homelessness

The UK government commissioned a report into LGBT+ experiences of homelessness circa 2017 and then suppressed its release until September this year.

Three tweets by Andrew Feinberg NOW: Per pool, 2 ambulances and several vans that appeared full of @SecretService have left Mar-a-Lago in the last few minutes. This is according to a note from the CBS tv pool crew near Palm Beach. The protective pool (a CBS TV crew) also reported "about 20-25 cars, two ambulances and a helicopter hovering above" entering MAL a few minutes before the vans and ambulances were spotted leaving. I have contacted a transition spokesperson for more information.

Seems like a problem for her friend Matt Gaetz.

it’s true

⚠️ It looks like the UK puberty blocker ban will be extended until end of December 2024.
