Shockat Adam's (MP for Leicester South) statement on "standing for equality".

Attendees at the #RDconf last Saturday voted on an emergency motion to show their opposition to the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman. Read the motion below 👇 BMA-wide policy is set at the Annual Representative Meeting (ARM) in June 2025.

Politicians seem confused after the ruling that sex should be understood as biological under the Equality Act—and trans people are waiting to see how much their rights have been reduced. @jessothomson.co.uk analyses the judgment for @prospectmagazine.co.uk www.prospectmagazine...

there was a whole story about cis women potentially DYING OF CANCER because their doctors wouldn't give them proper screenings because they said they were virgins. in the UK. in the 2020s. and hardly any of you know about it because the only "womens issue" you've heard is a few bigoted whinings.

A plea. Please stop calling it interim guidance. It's not guidance, and the EHRC don't call it that. It's an "interim update". They only say that the guidance remains forthcoming. This is genuinely driving me potty (more than I usually am).

So what's the deal with prisons? Is there going to be a trans prison set up?

People may want to think twice about how you share information about trans inclusive venues. We know transphobes love applying media pressure and funding litigation and they are probably eager to get some more wins. Don't give them a menu of organisations to target.

as some of you may be aware, we have been dealing with considerable transphobia (among other issues) in our department at the uni of aberdeen. we are sharing this letter publicly to raise awareness and ask for your support. please sign and share 💕🏳️‍⚧️ tinyurl.com/UoATransphobia #LGBTQinSTEM

If you want to know how serious our decline in the UK, when North Carolina did what the Labour Government and EHRC have done, the then UK Government told LGBT+ people to beware travelling there. (Credit to @kazhawa.bsky.social.) www.voanews.com/amp/uk-issue...

We'd also like to see messages or signs from employers or service providers that stop trans people using single sex spaces.

Remember folks, be polite while they ban you from taking part in society and nodbot does a fucking thing to stop them. And it's 'trans people'. People. We. Are. People.

Am I completely mistaken, or is "I thought they were trans" now a magic spell that people can say to just exclude anyone from any gendered space. Doesn't matter if they are trans or not, the fact that there's no way to prove someone is trans also means there's no way they can say they're not.

Every trans person in existence proves a whole army of sex cops couldn't stop us. The organised force necessary to maintain sexual dichotomy proves it isn't a law of nature.

The EHRC know it is not possible for an organisation to know which workers and service users are trans, which is why it's conspicuously absent in the intermediary statement. This is a statement made to pressure organisations that would otherwise rightly ignore the ruling for being unworkable.

Fucking hell, they've turn LGB✂️TQ+ into governmental policy.

Genuinely think this is the most important information the community needs right now EHRC GUIDANCE CANNOT BE IMPLEMENTED UNLESS BRIDGET PHILLIPSON SIGNS OFF ON IT She will be the ultimate decider of our fates Please spread the word. Every activist needs to know this right now

Question: I've seen people justifying making trans people using the wrong toilets by saying "men won't care if trans women use the men's". Is there benefit to cis men objecting or does this worsen the problem of trans women being demonised and not being allowed to just fucking piss?

🏳️‍⚧️ NEW 🏳️‍⚧️ We believe the Supreme Court – which disgracefully refused to hear from trans people before its decision last week – has placed the UK in breach of its obligations under the Human Rights Act. So we’re readying a challenge – join us: goodlaw.social/xpme
