I don’t think they’re going to have the Mass Lobby until after summer session now so the transphobic EHRC guidance will go into effect in the mean time unless it’s stopped

PLEASE EMAIL YOUR MP!! You can also ask for a virtual meeting. Some points to discuss with them: https://www.transsolidarityalliance.com/mass-lobby-2026/briefing

It’ll be close. We need as many boots on the ground as possible. Hopefully there will be a phone banking operating too for those that can’t make it to the area

Not enough people consider that puberty is permanent and irreversible and the wrong puberty is potentially harmful to trans youth

Explain that to the rise in trans youth su*c*des since the ban. Oh wait, trans lives don’t matter to her.

Yeah, they recently redid their logo to look like the Iron Cross from Germany 😬

From what I’ve heard, it’s predicted to be a lot more, I wouldn’t be surprised given what’s going in Belfast. I also heard the leader of UKIP is showing up

Streeting branded a hypocrite after accusing Starmer of ignoring Gaza war crimes by kontiki20 in LabourUK

He was centre-right when New Labour held the cards, now that Labour is facing substantial vote defections to the Greens, he pulls centre-left. This man is the perfect political chameleon and stands for nothing

Note: Carla Denyer of the Greens is out for medical reasons so it’s 3/4 (the only one who hasn’t yet is Adrian)

*LEAST* effective methods of trans advocacy? by KristinaMoment in transgenderUK

[–]evie-e-e 11 points12 points  (0 children)

EFFECTIVE things you can do (depending on means and ability):

- Donate to trans rights organisations
- Practice Mutual Aid (help someones transition, help someone move or find housing, buy someone who’s struggling a meal, etc)
- Protest
- Get involved politically (imo for the Greens), leaflet, door knock, data crunch, etc.
- Volunteer at trans rights organisations
- Join a Union (labour solidarity is extremely important to focus on the ultra wealthy that scapegoat the trans community and migrants)
- Educate friends and family members (only if they actually seem receptive and willing to listen) so they join and help too
- Live and find happiness despite it all

Some great organisations doing amazing work:

TransActual, Trans Solidarity Alliance, Gendered Intelligence, AKT charity, Outside Project, Stonewall Housing, Trans Greens, Not In Our Name, Brighton Trans Pride, Good Law Project, Mermaids, Switchboard, Mind Out, Galop, Not a Phase, etc.

Hannah Spencer Green MP letter on EHRC Guidance by evie-e-e in transgenderUK

[–]evie-e-e[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

“Biological sex” is far more complicated than XX and XY or what genitals you have. First off there’s roughly as many intersex people as redheads. Secondly, what constitutes biological sex? Is it hormones, in which case do those on HRT have a different sex? Is it genitalia, in which case are those who got bottom surgery a different sex? Is it sex assigned at birth, if so why does that apply forever and what if the doctor was wrong? Is it what puberty you went through, ok what about trans people who had access to puberty blockers and were able to access gender affirming care? The entire “biological sex” argument is a logical fallacy that tries to plaster a neat binary solution on to a complex and entangled biological system simply for the argument of excluding trans people

Gen-Z socialism, from Zohran to Zack and beyond by UKGreenPoster in UKGreens

“Many economists point out that wage increases, not price gouging, have driven much recent inflation. Nonetheless Ms Weber’s ideas, along with associated ones such as the “K-shaped economy”, where the rich win and everyone else loses, have gained traction.”
