they wouldn't let us move from our meeting point the grass by the Fleet Air Arm Memorial. It was done as a bloc protest which worked well keeping everyone inside a tight area edged off with banners.

Our 3 are the same.... and our 8 cats!

@janefae.bsky.social in fighting form, and she is right. The “gender-critical” transphobes are fighting a war of elimination. The suspension of the EHRC “guidance” is an important victory for us, and the result of everyone fighting back against this tyranny and hate. We must keep it up. We will win.

@brianna.bsky.social your bullshit has hurt so many of us. you can forever eat glass.

there is no "middle ground" on our rights. full and unequivocal, nothing less is acceptable.

the reason i haven't blocked you is so i can tell you to go fuck yourself. feel free to reply so i can say it again.

How I discovered the waiting times for every gender clinic in the UK We believe in doing what the NHS should be - reporting honestly and transparently on the state of gender services in the UK

The last article in The Gender Clinic Files is now out!

The Gender Services Monitor is available from tge article, and my website will be updatted later today.

Huge thank you to @wearequeeraf.com & @whatthetrans.com for their work on this series, which finishes off with a Q^A next week.

This Week In The Big Picture It may not feel like it most days, but Donald Trump’s authoritarian ambitions have been seriously kneecapped by the courts.

Trump’s getting blocked in court, and MAGA’s losing its grip on the culture. Two stories this week that show how the tide is turning. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/week-big-p...

Later today women will gather at Holyrood to mark #199Days since Supreme Court ruling. Will their voices be heard, or will @PoliceScotland once again allow men to drown them out. Me in @TheScotsman scotsman.com/news/opinion/c... organisation", whatever that means. And over the last decade many campaigners have come to the reluctant conclusion that the police are not neutral in the battle for women'srights. Today, hundreds of women will gather outside the parliamentto mark 199 days since the Supreme Court ruled that the sex in the 2010 Equality Actis based on biology, not self-ID. The protest has been organised by grassroots group Women Won't Wheesht in response to the Scottish Government and Westminster's delay in implementing the ruling. There are similar protests planned in London and Cardiff. A campaign group, Resisting Transphobia in Edinburgh, has organised a counter protest with a "PA system and chanting". Its supporters are advised to wear masks to hide their identityand urged to bring "megaphones and drums" in a clear intention to drown out women's vnices

These horrible people really thought they could just keep hurling money at court cases until they got their way and then society would rise up to applaud them, reassure them that they had always been correct and then the public would collectively crack down on people they hate.

All that's wrong with the EHRC "guidance" in one paragraph
“There was no consultation with stakeholders – or even their own staff. It included legal inaccuracies and has since been withdrawn. And while it was big on how to exclude, it had nothing to say on how to include trans people in public life”

So, the whole “transsexual/ cissexual” thing

Truth is we wouldn’t need these labels if it weren’t for the cis-led control over Trans+ people

In a just world, a Trans+ person would just rock up to a Trans+ Healthcare provider and access whatever support THEY know is right for THEM - no extra labels

Business card left on a concrete wall next to a statue. Fences surround the statue.

Today we will be reporting on the counter protests in both London and Wales today. @nightkristina.bsky.social will be in Wales and I @alyx.whatthetrans.com will be in London.

In London I have already left a business card at where the terfs will be congregating at parliament square.

Not one moment of joy can the Wicked Queen behold without cursing it. What a miserable, and immiserating, life she leads.

What happens when a minority is forced to fight for its very existence?

Here's a lesson from history that the gender crits would do well to heed.

AI generated nonsense being used against trans people is already a thing.

“This is a lie but the fact that I believed it tells you something…” on an industrial scale?

New report details the harm caused by EHRC interim guidance TransActual will be taking copies of their findings to meet with MPs

New report details the harm caused by EHRC interim guidance

Akua Reindorf KC @akuareindorf • 11h The government has asked the @EHRC to conduct a Regulatory Impact Assessment on the revised Services Code of Practice. This could take up to a year. Meanwhile, the SC judgment in @ForWomenScot is and will continue t.... A spokesman for the EHRC said: "We do not think it necessary for the EHRC to assess the cost to businesses of complying with the law, ahead of our updated services code of practice being laid in parliament. The code is not regulation, nor is it legislation. It is practical guidance to help duty bearers understand what the law requires of them and how they can comply with it. "These obligations are imposed by the Equality Act 2010, not by the guidance we provide on it. The law is in place and duty bearers should be ensuring that they comply with it now. An assessment of costs would therefore support neither the minister's consideration of the updated code nor parliament's scrutiny of it because the impacts such an analysis would identify will be experienced whether or not the code is in place.

Picked this up from a different social media site.

If this is true, and is done correctly, it should take more than a year.

Lots of long grass between then and now.

We are already helping several employees sue employers for enforcing the EHRC Interim Guidance, which *we think* is unlawful. Should the High Court agree, we plan to make available in generic form, for free, and in a usable state, all the legal materials a trans employee needs to sue their employer.

Students launch women’s society excluding trans women The move has drawn significant criticism from a number of student groups, with CULC describing it as 'an assault on the trans community'

It’s heartwarming to see the MAJORITY of Cambridge Uni students & societies are speaking up for trans-inclusion when a nasty little TERF soc pops up with an anti-trans (disguised as ‘free speech’) agenda!

Watch how this hate group gets boosted by the UK media (her mum is an Observer columnist!) 😖

Friends back from a dip at our local baths.
Nothing has changed. Nothing. Nothing at all.

The fearmonger-in-chief also had a winge about it. I won’t share her tweet, but this was Glamour’s reply. 💀

THE TIMES Home UK World Comment Life & Style Business & Money Rules forcing trans people to use birth-sex facilities delayed The Equality and Human Rights Commission set out statutory guidance on how gyms, clubs and hospitals must judge single-sex spaces based on biology Geraldine Scott, Assistant Political Editor Thursday October 30 2025, 9.40pm Rules that would ban transgender people from using facilities that do not match their biological sex could be delayed for more than a year, it has emerged, as ministers were accused of "undermining the law" by demanding extra checks.

This is the Murdoch Times saying the quiet part out loud.

“Forcing” trans people to use the wrong toilets.

The entire plan is about coercion and endangering trans people and, as I said recently, nothing whatsoever to do with principle.

"DROP THE EHRC" as seen in front of the office

EHRC London Office's smashed window. Notice how the neighbouring windows have had the paint washed off.

As of this evening (19:17), almost all of the pink paint has been washed away.

However, "DROP THE EHRC" is still visible on the brick walls in front of the building.

The smashed window has a traffic cone in front of it. Notice how the neighbouring windows have had the pink paint removed.

I will be prepared
