I would imagine that the "roman saluter" won't be supporting Banksy Art Forever, but it is clever political satire.

Ofcom, stop GB News broadcasting hate *CW: Homophobia, hate speech GB News is no stranger to spouting hatred and toxic lies. They take pride in it, and pretend the rules don’t matter. But they do. And they must be enforced. On 22 January,...

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

The logo for this year's was designed by Emily, a 12-year-old pupil from St Anthony’s Girls’ Catholic Academy in Sunderland. She said, "I was inspired to draw the megaphone because everyone deserves to be heard and sometimes to be heard you need help to be loud."

With the start of February we move into LGBT+ History Month in the UK led by Schools Out. This year's theme is "Activism and Social Change".

And yet despite these clear lessons from history we see the far right pushing the facist ideologies of division and hate being allowed to build power
across Europe and America. We must learn from the past and stop these evil people in their tracks.

Holocaust Memorial Day Trust | HMD 2025 Theme For a Better Future is the theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2025.

Today we mark the 80th Anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration camp complex, and the 30th anniversary of the genocide in Bosnia.

"Article 3: Freedom from torture and inhuman or degrading treatment"

Which of course is meant to be the UK's implementation Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
"no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment"
And European Convention on Human Rights Article 3 which in the UK came into effect in 1953.

Maybe the prison service need reminding of Article 3 of the Human Rights Act 1998.
"Article 3 says you mustn’t be tortured or treated in an inhuman or degrading way."

A million, million times this! This is exactly where my head is at right now!

Now of course they want to go after the lawyers. After all it dammed inconvenient when you want to abuse the population that these pesky lawyers pop up and point out what your doing is unlawful.

Oh dear, The Telegraph clearly is really struggling to find things to report in their campaign of hate.

I would love to hear how all the other marches around the country and internationally went.

Panorama of the London, UK Women's March (one of many occurring today) outside Parliment.

It was good to see so many people turn out to support women's rights both domestically and around the world. Unfortunately, we did pass some exclusonists (I think there were 3 or 4 of them hanging around the traffic lights near parliament).

The BBC are despicable in how they routinely portray the gender-critics, who are trying to dehumanise and exclude a minority group, as the victims in this.

Government to implement university free speech law Labour paused implementation of the act after taking power, due to concerns over student welfare.

This seems to be all about enabling hate peddlers to continue attacking specific minorities. Once again the feelings and ideology of gender critics are being promoted by government legislation over the human rights of the trans gender people they target.

UK Women's March UK Women's March is an intersectional movement for women's rights, founded by a small group of women dedicated to amplifying the voices of women everywhere.

It tends to carry on improving. At 9 months, I was still getting it a lot. I'm now at 21 months, and things are better. I know that too many still read me as male, I hear enough comments whilst walking about town. However, very few people do it when dealing with me directly unless I am on the phone.

🫂🫂🫂 That's a pretty big revelation so it is going to take time for you to work through how you feel about it. Hopefully as the idea beds in you can just build it into being another part of the narrative that explains why your a fabulous person.

A new Home Office report admits grooming gangs are not a ‘Muslim problem' | Ella Cockbain and Waqas Tufail The study finds no credible evidence for a far-right stereotype that has spread widely in the media, say crime academics Ella Cockbain and Waqas Tufail

"Child sexual abuse is the product of a complex interplay of patriarchy, power, exploitation, opportunity and disregard for children." To me these sound like the exact things that the far right promote.

Petition: Do not stop transgender people from receiving care in mainstream hospital wards The previous government proposed changes to the NHS constitution which would mean transgender hospital patients in England may not be treated in female- and male-only wards. We believe that this segre...

This is a petition that the UK trans community and their allies may want to consider as it addresses treating trans people with respect and dignity when they need hospital treatment within the NHS.

I am sure that there will be some contagion of this disease from across the pond, especially in US owned companies. A few others UK business will be convinced by anti-decency campaigns by the likes of The Telegraph.

How many of these religions are supposed to have moral guidance against greed? Because that is all this grift would seem to be.

1/ If this was a new report saying puberty blockers cause irreversible harm -splashed across The Times etc with @BBCNews running umpteen ‘debates.’ But bcs it says the exact opposite - UK news blackout.
The ONLY studies which claim PBs are dangerous are written by quacks, or pseudo-medical fronts

It is only ever about the freedom to hate speech with those backing the far right. You can say anything as long as:

A) it attacks one of the minorities they want to abuse for their own power

And

B) it doesn't make it too obvious that they are just vile hate peddlers

Thank you Trans Pride Southampton. Still trying to work out how to best do things as a Meta refugee. Hopefully the BlueSky fediverse bridging is working.

We warned all the LGB without the T folk that there was a clear and obvious plan and that they would he next. It is my understanding that there was even evidence of the religious right groups agreeing that when selecting to trlarget trans community first. But they knew better....

This applies to women wanting to assist gay couples as well as those who don't want to assist in surrogacy.
