You’re not entitled to automatically exclude someone because of it.
Feelings are human.
Rights are legal.

DO TRANS RIGHTS REMAIN?
Here I note that trans people are still protected under ‘gender reassignment’ which remains largely unaffected by the FWS judgment.

🚨 Are trans people now disabled in the eyes of the law?
And is it fair on disabled people when their already limited facilities get turned into the “trans solution”?

this twisting of EHCR is disgusting: & no parliamentary debate!
#NonBinaryBarrister takes us through the #transrights scandal 🤦♂️😭😡

🎉 Last night I won the @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social Changemaker Award 🏆

So let’s keep using our voices 🗣️✨
