Feeling uplifted by my gorgeous new @transsolidarity.bsky.social badges 😀 You too can confuse and confound the 🚽 police while supporting our work 👉 www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/maybe-im-t...

@transsolidarity.bsky.social I managed to talk to several Mps at the lobby, Samatha Niblett, Dr Ros Savage, Sara Green, Tim Farron, Llinos Medi and Lord Brian Paddick all were very onside and keen to work for trans equality. An amazing lobby, incredibly well organised thanks to all.

In Parliament early for a meeting. See you down at the mass lobby event with @transsolidarity.bsky.social later today. Today our community makes history. 💪

In we go!

@transsolidarity.bsky.social I was happy to meet with David Dogan MP today

Left - Dr Lauren Sullivan MP. She is a woman, wearing a black jacket, green top & glasses. Right - Alec Burrett; myself. He is wearing an Australian cowhide hat, glasses, a black jacket and purple shirt.

Just spent the best part of 40 minutes talking to my MP; the lovely Dr @laurensullivanmp.bsky.social ; about the implications of the interim ERHC guidance which includes the "onion of weirdness" and "reverse Cinderella".
This was part of the mass lobby organised by @transsolidarity.bsky.social

@transsolidarity.bsky.social we are not a threat #unitefortransrights

I attended the Trans Mass Lobby today organised by @transsolidarity.bsky.social .
I've spoken to Darren Paffey MP (for Southampton Itchen) about my concerns. He was very locked in and cares a huge amount about Trans issues. (1/?)

Trans flag with ""trans joy is powerful" written on it flying in the breeze

Amazing turn out at the @transsolidarity.bsky.social mass lobby event today

HUGE turn out of trans folks and allies for the lobby of Parliament led by @transsolidarity.bsky.social

Incredible to see 🏳️‍⚧️

In Parliament, 30 mins till I meet my MP! Amazing work by @transsolidarity.bsky.social in organising this.

At the mass lobby organised by @transsolidarity.bsky.social and have green carded @alicemlabour.bsky.social MP to talk about the attack on trans+ rights in the UK. Travelled from Norwich to be here at Westminster today. If I dont see her today... I'll see her at a coffee morning this weekend. 🏳️‍⚧️✨️

A picture of Abigail Thorn green carding her MP

So many people have taken part in our lobby today, including Abigail Thorn who came by to green card her MP.

Very productive meeting with my MP @tessamunt.bsky.social this afternoon @transsolidarity.bsky.social

One significant takeaway: don’t assume MPs are as knowledgeable around trans rights as you are. Information is helpful.

I’ve agreed to keep in touch with her to keep her up to date 👍🏻

Picture of me sitting together with my MP

Great to be able to attend the @transsolidarity.bsky.social mass lobby today and meet with Maya Ellis to discuss the trampling of human rights that is underway

Abi with ALEX Sobel MP. (If you saw the earlier skeet where I called him Chris - look man, it’s been a long hot day and I’m tired)

Met ALEX Sobel MP today as part of @transsolidarity.bsky.social’s mass lobby! Told him trans people won’t comply with segregation in public spaces or healthcare; we’ll ignore laws and homebrew HRT! He was sympathetic and agreed EHRC + SCOTUK have made a big mess that’ll be hard to fix

Me and my husband standing in front of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. It’s sunny and I’ve forgotten my sunglasses so i’m squinting into the sun. I’m carrying a placard in trans colours “My message to my MP…”

On way home from @transsolidarity.bsky.social mass lobby in Westminster. Queued 4 hours with my husband, Alice’s dad, to green card my MP, who we knew was unavailable , but waited 90minutes in case a member of her team would come and talk to us. My message: keep the gender police out of our toilets.
