STANDING TOGETHER: A UNITED FRONT FOR TRANS RIGHTS As the organisers of the UK's largest Pride events in Birmingham, Brighton, London and Manchester, we come together today in unequivocal solidarity with our trans community. We are united not only in message, but in purpose. At a time when trans rights in the UK are under growing attack, our resolve has never been stronger: we will not allow progress to be undone. We will not stand by as the dignity, safety, and humanity of our trans siblings are debated, delayed, or denied. What is happening here in the UK is not isolated. It is part of a disturbing global trend-from the banning of Pride events in Hungary to anti-trans legislation in the United States-where LGBTQ+ rights are being systematically rolled back. The UK must not follow this path of regression. Instead, it must rise as a global leader in human rights and equality. The recent ruling by the UK Supreme Court to exclude trans women from the definition of the term 'woman' underscores the urgent need for immediate action. In this moment, we choose to stand firmer, louder, and prouder in demanding change that protects and uplifts trans lives. That is why this year, we are collectively suspending political party participation in our Pride events. Know that this is not a symbolic gesture. It is a direct call for accountability and a refusal to platform those who have not protected our rights. We demand real commitments and measurable progress. The Pride movement was born from protest, and we must continue to embody that spirit with intention and urgency.

To move forward, we need more than promises. We need every political party to stand unequivocally with every member of the LGBTQ+ community, and to centre the voices of trans people in policy, practice, and public life. Collectively, we call for: • Full and enforceable protections under the Equality Act • Timely and dignified access to NHS gender-affirming healthcare • A reformed, accessible Gender Recognition Certificate process • Sustainable funding for trans-led services and support organisations across the UK This is the minimum. Anything less is not allyship, it is abandonment. To those in power: when you demonstrate true solidarity and tangible commitment to trans rights, we will stand with you. Until then, we will continue to speak truth to power and fight for a future where every trans person can live safely, freely, and proudly. As Pride events across the UK face mounting challenges, our resolve only grows stronger. We will not be silenced. We will not be divided. Together, we will build a national movement rooted in justice, unity, and unapologetic pride. Now, more than ever, we need everyone to show up for trans lives and show up for Pride. In solidarity, Birmingham Pride Brighton Pride Pride in London Manchester Pride

Political parties banned from Manchester, London, Birmingham and Brighton Prides this year.

Statements in the images.

Another day of this government being appalling, is it?

I share the deep disappointment in today's Supreme Court ruling, and the concerns about what this will mean for trans women going forward.

Today and every day, I stand in unwavering solidarity with the trans community.

We must never stop fighting for trans rights.

There will be a lot of bluster and noise today, but the judge said this explicitly.

Solidarity and big love to every trans person today. We will continue to stand with you today and every day ❤️ 🏳️‍⚧️

getting a bit tiring to think "ah yay, the worst people you know are having a great day" several times a week, every single week

It was quite stressful I can’t lie 💀

Thanks! And yeah getting it to just 50 was absolute hell to be honest haha

Recently compiled my top 50 favourite songs of all time. Was a fun exercise and you can have a little look at my list here 🥹 open.spotify.com/playlist/1Tv...

Can't believe it took me until the age of 33 as a hay fever sufferer to realise the magic of FEXOFENADINE. Loratadine and cetirizine truly in the mud I fear.

This week I need to pay off my Glasto balance and will be trying for tickets for Gaga, Perfume Genius and My Bloody Valentine 🥹 Cursed levels of spending

Although I enjoy my little early rise eras when they come around I do think naturally walking at half 5 is pushing it a bit ffs

Still thinking about last night. Likely contender for gig of the year and it’s only March. Cheers, Twigs

We need a national inquiry into why news media can’t build websites that work properly. It’s almost exclusively websites like the independent and the metro that crash my browser and make my MacBook freak out ffs

What a morning to be a breakfast enjoyer.

And by that I, of course, mean fans of American indie pop sensation Japanese Breakfast who today releases her fourth album For Melancholy Brunettes (& sad women)

Oh it's a special day to specifically be me enjoying the sunshine in South London my lunch break.

Finished Adolescence. Safe to say that was probably some of the most powerful television I've ever seen. My god.
