. @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social says Labour has “been dragged in the wrong direction” on trans+ issues. “Our party must completely reject the tired narrative that trans people are a threat... It wasn’t true about gay men in the ‘80s, and it is not true about the trans community now.”

GB News presenter Josh Howie linked the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful Over 40,000 people have filed their complaint to send to Ofcom. The more of us that complain, the harder it will be for Ofcom to ignore us 👇 goodlaw.social/i1m8

The new Bridget Jones film made me laugh and cry at the same time. What a way to end such an iconic film series after almost 30 years. 👏 I’ll never be able to get enough of this franchise, and Mad About the Boy is no different. Truly a must watch for all Bridget stans.

Had some things to say about the disgusting comments I have seen from a very loud minority of people online since The Vivienne passed. It’s something no LGBTQ+ person will be a stranger to, but it’s important to remember that the hate in these people’s miserable lives should hold no weight in ours.

I am heartbroken to learn that The Vivienne has passed and at a loss of what to say. One of the kindest, professional and outgoing queens you could ever hope to meet, who was such an immeasurable talent. Sending love to everyone who is feeling her loss tonight. 🤍

Red Run 2024 ❤️ This year I ran a 5k for Controlling Chemsex, a charity run by a small but mighty team who provide essential support to anyone struggling with chemsex. I’ve been lucky to work with them over the last few years and I’ve seen firsthand just how lifesaving what they do is.
