UK's Labour Party Abandoned Trans People. Here's What American Dems Can Learn. Democrats: There is no β€œmiddle ground” on equal rights. Take it from UK Labour.

UK's Labour Party abandoned transgender people. The gambit to pursue rightwing voters by abandoning a targeted minority failed, and now they're facing the prospect of a historic loss.

US Dems could learn a lot from their failure.

Great piece from S. Baum.

I refuse to believe that a government mandated digital ID scheme would not be used to detransition and dehumanise people like me in the current climate.

It is vital that we all stand against it.

I hope there is a backlash and Keir Starmer is forced out of office for this.

Who voted for it???

Getting to know @chrisn.xyz properly was one of my highlights of conference.

She soooo deserves that award and I’m glad the party has responded unequivocally.

I long for the day when this sort of thing is not controversial and we can all just get on with doing the jobs we were elected us to do! πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ”Ά

β€œawful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

It was a great honour to represent the County Council at the VJ Day commemoration in Cambridge earlier this morning- marking 80 years since the end of the 2nd World War.

Joining city colleague Bob Illingworth and others, I was there in my capacity as the Military Covenant Rep on the council.

From a distance you can see a mountain landscape with a blue sky and a few hazy clouds. on the sides of the picture you can see parts of trees. On the left in light green, on the right a smaller dark green tree further away. in the center is a black box on which is written in white β€œOnly caring about your own right is exactly how you lose them”.

So I called someone who was abusing a trans lady for using the women’s toilets an idiot (for failing to understand that trans women are women) on TikTok and I’m the one who gets moderated… FML. πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Saw an uncredited post on fb that got eaten by a refresh saying that JK shouldn't be categorized as simply a problematic artist. That she's more like Musk: a radicalized person with extreme wealth using said wealth to influence the government to target and harm a marginalized group. Helpful framing.

MP for Ely and East Cambridgeshire
CHARLOTTE CANE
I’ve written to the Secretary of State to raise serious concerns about East Cambridgeshire District Council’s decision to allocate the vast majority of current and future developer contributions (CiL funds)β€”which are meant to support vital infrastructure for our growing communitiesβ€”towards building a commercial crematorium in Mepal. 

This decision will divert funding away from much-needed local services like children’s play areas, cycle ways and pavements, sports facilities, GP surgery improvements, school improvements to name but a few.

Yesterday I had the privilege of witnessing a citizenship ceremony at the county council. There were so many smiling faces - all proud to be joining British society.

Kier Starmer saying that migration, legal migration, has turned us into an β€˜island of strangers’ is both disturbing and disgraceful.

Important thread.

It is so so wrong to promise hope and change and then simply carry on as before…

No wonder people are getting disillusioned and turning to the extremes for answers.

Voters in Canada have elected a Liberal government on a mandate to combat Trump's dangerous populism. Across the globe, it is liberals who are taking the lead in standing up for prosperity, security and democracy in the face of Trump, Putin and the rest.

When he came to office, Keir Starmer promised a government that would "tread more lightly" on people's lives.

Bridget Phillipson's announcement that trans folks should use the wrong toilets is offensive and ignorant.

It shows Labour to be no better than the US Republicans. They should be ashamed.

I know my Trans & Non Binary friends will be worried, scared & confused today

The courts judgement needs careful consideration to understand its impact. Trans voices were not included yet this ruling affects them most. That’s deeply troubling.

I am literally terrified of going to the toilet right now. This MP understands that. He is a good MP. I wish others in similar positions would speak out. The wall of silence from those who call themselves allies has been noticed.
