The Mayor of London has told me in public just now he supports scrapping the two child benefit cap - when the Chancellor can afford to do so.

I asked him if he'd support a wealth tax on assets - and he refused to answer the question.

Labour always supporting the 1%.

So a tall cis gendered woman with broad shoulders and distinct jawlines will be confronted at toilets?

What could possibly go wrong?

Times front page - Trans guide to protect women is left in limbo
Labour sits on plan to preserve β€˜safety and dignity’ by letting staff turn people away based on looks

Bridget Phillipson was given the guidance by the EHRC three months ago
EXCLUSIVE

Transgender people could be banned from single-sex spaces based on how they look, according to new equalities guidance seen by The Times.

The document from the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) was handed to ministers almost three months ago but has not been published by Bridget Phillipson, the minister for women and equalities.

The Times has been passed a copy of the final guidance, which aims to preserve the dignity and safety of women, by Whitehall figures concerned that Labour is delaying publication to avoid potential criticism.

A trans rights protest outside parliament in April after the Supreme Court ruled that the term sex in the Equality Act referred to biological sex
Next image β€Ί
The equality watchdog has set out sweeping new guidance on how to apply equality protections for the first time in more than a decade, with a focus on how transgender people should be treated.

The 300-page document, seen by The Times but not yet published, was prompted by a Supreme Court judgment in April that ruled the terms β€œsex” and β€œwoman” in the Equality Act referred to biological sex.

Here we outline the key elements.

Single-sex spaces

The most significant change is a departure from previous interpretations that transgender people should generally be treated in line with their gender identity in single-sex settings such as changing rooms or hospital wards.

Previously it was thought that excluding a transgender woman from a single-sex setting could amount to discrimination.

The new guidance states clearly that trans people may be excluded from single-sex spaces that do not correspond to their biological sex when it is a β€œproportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim”, such as protecting privacy, dignity or safety.

Reflecting the Supreme Court ruling, the guidance said that for the purposes of the Equality Act β€œa person’s sex remains their biological sex, whether they have a GRC [gender recognition certificate] or not”. The guidance adds: β€œA trans man with a GRC is a woman and a trans woman with a GRC is a man, for the purposes of the act.”

This is what happens when bigotries become protected philosophical beliefs. Abuse of the system in ways it was not set out for, leading to case law that essentially repeals legislation. This will happen next with Islamaphobia, and after that, the rest will also become protected.

The report said the increase in green party support suggested for a significant minority of Jews, domestic priorities and progressive values outweigh foreign policy concerns.

The report said the increase in green party support suggested for a significant minority of Jews, domestic priorities and progressive values outweigh foreign policy concerns.

The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party.

It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence.

We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it.

Never again for everyone.

Social Democrats in Denmark suffer sweeping election losses

Social Democrats in Denmark suffer sweeping election losses PM Mette Frederiksen’s centre-left party loses control of Copenhagen for first time in more than 100 years

A few days ago Starmer & Mahmoud were trying to justify their fascistic refugee policy with reference to Denmark's Social Democratic Party.

Yesterday the Danish SD Party did SO BADLY in the Copenhagen local elections that it lost control of the capital for the 1st time since 1903.

The law has failed a woman and her child – fight back No survivor should face harm from the very system that is meant to protect them. No child should have to carry an abuser’s name.Β It’s time to change the system.

A High Court judge has forced a six-year-old girl to keep the surname of the man who raped her mother. We think this is an outrage and are putting together a legal team so D's mother can take her case to the European Court of Human Rights.

But we need your help. goodlawproject.org/crowdfunder/...

I think it's safe to say that people are pretty 'aware' right now. What we actually need is safety and allyship but happy #TransgenderAwarenessWeek anyway.

If you want a trans pin, either as a pride symbol or in solidarity, this is your regular reminder that I sell a bunch at canopyrobin.etsy.com

Every line of this is wrong.

No-one β€˜identifies as trans’. They might identify as as male or female and that might differ from their birth sex. More rarely, they may identify with a more complex identity - non-binary, gender-fluid etc.

But we're seeing history repeat itself as some in the media and in politics spread bigotry and misinformation about trans people.
