I also want to say thank you to the person who introduced me to the French word 'beaucoup' this year. It means a lot.
If Russia is banned because it contradicted Eurovision’s mission of peace and cultural unity…
Then why isn’t Israel?
🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈I dream of the day when the world can become a place where transgender people can live proudly and freely as themselves, and where they can love freely
As a mascot, I see human love as beautiful and wonderful.
I love you all today as well♡
This! WI and GG..
There is much to say on this, but the very first point that must be made as a matter of urgency to the NEC is that excluding trans women is not a "compromise position", it is a segregation position, a biased position, a transphobic position and a morally repugnant position.
In the last twenty years, mega-donations to political parties from the super-rich haven’t just doubled.
They haven’t just trebled.
They’ve gone up sevenfold.
And that money isn’t generosity.
It’s to buy influence so politicians serve their interests, not our constituents.
Stop saying “DEI” or “equity-related.”
Stop using the words they choose to mask their vile racist ideology with the language of those they hate.
Say they want to remove any books that speak to the lives of anyone who isn’t white, straight, Christian, or male.
Name the hate. Make them own it.
“Labour’s national executive committee (NEC) approved plans on Tuesday to limit the main conference hall to biological women delegates”
… Can someone please tell me how they plan to check attendee’s “biology”?
Will this be by mouth swab, genital check, or “we can always tell” radar??? 🤷🏼♀️
The GCs on twitter are very confused by this. It's fairly simple – given FWS only decided whether EA sex means 'biological' or 'certificated' sex, it did not change the legal position for under 18s. Regardless of how FWS was decided the position for trans girl guides would be the same.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD USE HYPHENS
It was always inevitable that the loudest and best-funded (by people in Epstein's emails) anti-trans freaks who spent years trying to brand trans people as sexual predators, would instantly start defending Epstein.
It's not hypocrisy, it's them reinforcing their hierarchy.
v good thread to show to your cis people who don’t understand the kafkaesque web of insane bureaucratic nonsense that british trans people have been trapped in for decades
The economy is incredibly broken. We should move to universal basic income.
I do not understand how anyone goes through life without this reality just completely poleaxing them from time to time. I mentioned it to my brother once and he was "fuck Beth, that's grim, you need to go outside" and it's just like "this is outside too!!!" How the fuck do you turn aside???
This is exactly what transphobes do.
If your politics have become “We must do fascism-lite, or the fascists will win”, then the fascists have already won.
Trump knew about the rape of young girls at the Epstein residence and said nothing, yet he claims to be “protecting women and girls” by attacking trans people.
I organise EIAs for a living. You do policy, you do an EIA. It's the first thing an FoI request would ask for. If it's a trans thing you don't fuck around because there's a cottage industry in asking for FoIs on this stuff.
This is insane to me.
You do not have to hand it to the Catholic bishops. In the same meeting, they banned gender affirming care at all Catholic hospitals nationwide.

It can be decades after a conflict ends for a country to even start to be considered "safe". Many refugees may never be able to return due to long term trauma. Mahmood is specifically talking about leaving vulnerable people in limbo and fearful for their futures. #r4today

“Gender Ideology” is the transphobic version of the antisemitic hoax conspiracy theory the “Protocols of The Elders of Zion”
In the UK, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's friendship with Epstein has led to total disgrace.
He's been stripped of his titles, reduced to the status of a pariah.
Nobody is defending him.
He's a TOTAL disgrace.
In America, Jeffrey Epstein's close mate, Donald Trump, remains the president.
Insane.
Love this from @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Perfection 👌🏾
FOI reveals the EHRC couldn’t even be bothered to finish an impact assessment for their new code of practice. When Bridget Phillipson asked for it on 8 October, all they managed to hand over was an unfinished “working draft”. 1/
If someone says “gender ideology” one more time like it means something, I’m going to lose my mind.
Stop pretending like there’s not an entire scientific literature on gender identity and gender dysphoria.
They’re trying to ban the teaching of that scientific literature.
Transphobia now threatening to derail work on tackling climate change.
Billionaires who own super yachts and fly in private jets overjoyed at the distraction.

Welcome to the era where nothing fucking works. It’s going to get worse before it gets better
Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
