The BBC are raising the licence fee after a year in which 300,000 households stopped paying it. No better time to cancel your licence fee if you haven't already done so.
Boycott the right-wing propaganda outlet and consider donating the money you save to trans charities and trans people in need.
Itβs been a grim fortnight. Iβve needed to ignore some of it.
Do we now have a situation in the uk where a trans person whose place of work is somewhere thatβs open to the public will have to use one loo whilst behind the bar, letβs say, but as soon as they clock off can use the other?
Absurd.
Utterly extraordinary that Hilary Cass on the BBC this morning said if some young people had "taken more time" they might not have pursued medical treatments, when her own report last year found that children routinely faced multi-year waiting lists for gender services.

This country's social policy has been driven by Christian Nationalist American wingnuts for the past decade.

The disgustingly trans-hostile UK media are now hounding a trans doctor - who has already had the media spotlight on her as a victim of transphobia - because sheβs decided to quit and flee the country to get away from the relentless transphobia! π£π

Hi everyone. As you know, I am our trans rights lead at Good Law Project. I have been working alongside a fantastic team on our challenge since May last year. But whilst what we have achieved is significant - there is still a lot further to go.
If you can, please donate and help us keep fighting.
Revealed as Attitudeβs Trailblazer of the Year 2026, Polanski opened his speech at the Rosewood London event

So. have I read this right?
In their wisdom, a bray of judges has ruled that it's OK for trans women to share public loos with cis women they've never met...
...but absolutely not OK for them to share a loo with a workplace colleague.
That makes perfect (non)sense.
There is no LGB without the T. We rise together and we fall together.

The High Court has ruled on our challenge to the EHRCβs interim guidance.
The judgment contains some good news for trans rights β but plenty of bad.
