I don't know how to function in a world that is so continuously cruel.
Where so many will celebrate this pointless, pointless harm. This will devastate a tiny minority. It will benefit no-one.
So many across our country will comply with this violence. So many others will stand silent.
I am beyond angry at the way trans children are being systematically persecuted.
The full power, violence and force of our state is smashing down onto them, making their life impossible.

The Trans Advocacy and Complaints Collective (TACC) recently submitted a formal complaint to the BBC and sent letters to the Women and Equalities Committee, the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, and the Minister for Women and Equalities, Bridget Phillipson MP. Our letters set out the pattern of reporting that repeatedly marginalises trans people, the use of demeaning language such as the phrase “biological male who identifies as a woman,” and the real distress this causes in our community. We have asked the relevant parliamentary bodies and ministers to scrutinise the BBC’s editorial practice and to hold it to account. This is a direct call to action. If you care about dignity, accuracy, and safety for trans people, please take the three steps below now. What we are asking you to do Email your MP using our template. We have prepared an MP email template that clearly explains the problem and asks your MP to demand that the BBC and the Government act. Doing this en masse will show Parliament and the BBC that this is not an isolated complaint. Key points to include are: that the BBC is publicly funded, that its own style guidance asks journalists to use people’s preferred terms and pronouns, that repeated use of phrases like “biological male” causes harm and may breach the Equality Act 2010, and ask your MP to press the BBC Board, the WEC, and DCMS for action. Sign and share our open letter petition defining “biological sex” language as slurs in media coverage. We are running an open letter petition that asks editors to treat phrases that reduce trans people to “biological” labels as harmful and to adopt editorial policies that prohibit such usage in routine reporting. The petition is a public statement. Our voices need to be heard. File complaints about offending articles using the guide and template we have prepared. If you see BBC online articles that use demeaning terms or misgender people, please file formal complaints.
Call to action! ❤️

In @yougov.co.uk polling of the trans community, to the best of our knowledge the first of its kind ever conducted, an astonishing 84% said Britain is “fairly unsafe” or “very unsafe” for trans people.

This, from the Quakers, is a pretty good example of how to resist pressure from bigot lobbying groups. Effectively “we legally can allow trans people to use the loo, we morally should, and we tried it and nothing bad happened”

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations
When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

“Transphobia is not f**cking feminist”
Kate Nash's powerful speech during her performance at Glastonbury.
It's your last chance to respond to the EHRC consultation. It closes at 11.59pm tomorrow. Get it done tonight. Tell them about the personal impact. Better to do something short and quick than not at all.
Don't let them claim we didn't tell them.
With 38 hrs to go to the EHRC consultation deadline I'm seeing posts from people feeling bad they're too stressed to engage.
The GLP⬇️has removed all but the last step, a general comment box. This is a far easier task. I hope it helps those who want to, to get their voice heard without too much pain.
The EHRC Guidance is a wicked exercise in removing rights from trans people - and is bad too for employers and service providers, those outside gender norms, people with disabilities and the economy.

One month ago, the Supreme Court made a ruling that rolled back trans rights in the UK
It made this decision without listening to a single trans voice

Impossible to communicate to people that once you decide that a group more vulnerable than you can be sacrificed in the name of your own safety or interests that you have already entered into an tacit agreement that you can also be sacrificed in the interests of a group less vulnerable than you.

If you want to know how serious our decline in the UK, when North Carolina did what the Labour Government and EHRC have done, the then UK Government told LGBT+ people to beware travelling there.

🚨I've contacted EHRC to ask whether there'll now be a new public consultation on the Statutory Code, given how radically this is likely to change following the SC ruling.

Her remarks come after a Supreme Court ruling that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex. The Welsh government said it was "carefully considering" the court's decision.
The BBC keep doing this. This isn't true. This is straightforwardly wrong in law. The ruling *only* applied to the Equality Act 2010. Trans women are still legally women for the vast majority of purposes! That's the whole point of the Gender Recognition Act.
I've put in a complaint. So can you.
