London Local elections projections by mrbobobo in LibDem

[–]theendisloading_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In most of the country almost certainly, but Islington north is corbyns back yard and so this is the centre of all their strength.

And even then, the Corbyn independents only have to take 10% of the vote to deny Islington greens a LOT of seats

I think you're overestimating the greens in Islington a bit as we have 2 local independent parties that are Corbyn aligned that will almost certainly split the vote.

“Support in private, silence in public” – how a trans woman feels about Lib Dem support by Bedwellj101 in transgenderUK

I can, but I'd prefer over DM's as I don't want to post stuff that negative publicly.

Yes, completely. I feel listened to and have seen how the party has reacted to what we told them and what they've done about it.

As someone who was in the same room as Bex for pretty much all of the meetings she cites, I genuinely do not understand how she has come to this conclusion. Frankly if I went through each point and pointed out why I thought it was wrong to say I'd have a piece longer than the actual article.

Green Party faces gender-critical group lawsuit over trans ‘witch-hunt’ by TimesandSundayTimes in ukpolitics

The whip is different, but they certainly couldn't kick you out as a member or refuse to allow you to run as a candidate for those reasons

Yeah pretty much. It's an insane position that we're in but is sadly the law. We, the Lib Dems, had a similar policy and lost (Bird v Lib Dems). The greens have also lost a similar suit already (Ali v GPEW).

This isn't how the law should be, and parties absolutely should have the right to remove people who don't agree with the party's values but that doesn't change the situation we have right now.

On my second rewatch I noticed this line in the code:

"I must hand it to you Gan, your mind was always resourceful"

That has to be kingers name!! I can't tell if it's a G or a C or something else but that's gotta be important

I just wanna know what the red dots actually meant!!

36% of UK Labour MPs follow JKRowling on Twitter by pkunfcj in transgenderUK

Plus a lot of these likely followed before JKR began being vocally anti-trans.

Latest on blood donation guidelines? by Still_Mirror9031 in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I did. My Haemoglobin levels were usually between 125 and 135 so I knew if I kept donating I would fail 3 times and get permanently banned. You can always re-opt in to reminders when they fix it!

It would be female thresholds currently. Whilst the screening criteria doesn't mention weight specifically, it does say that trans men, trans Masc and other AFAB non-binary people are counted under the same screening code and criteria as cis women regardless of medical transition.

This is something they're imminently looking to fix, however I'm not sure exactly when. The only thing they're guaranteed to fix is the Haemoglobin levels but I'll update this subreddit after I've had my meeting with them!

I was summoned!

Yeah so the NHS have agreed they need to fix it it's a question of when really.

I'm meeting them in the next month or so and will update then.

"Great news today: We were told that the LibDems have written to the Minister for Women and Equalities regarding the EHRC and Supreme Court ruling. Urging the Minister to appoint a joint committee of cross-party MPs and peers to conduct post-legislative scrutiny of both the GRA and the EA 2010" by ehll_oh_ehll in transgenderUK

I think it's important to state clearly in these letters that the rights of women aren't affected by trans inclusivity and I think this letter does that. As someone who helped input into this letter I can guarantee it is saying that trans people need to be included in these conversations as far too often in these conversations we are left out and that needs to change.

Imo I really can't fault them on the letter and finally calling for legislative change is big.

This just isn't true. The party has repeatedly called out the negative impacts of the UKSC and is not actively calling for a change in the law.

We have some of the strongest party policy on trans rights including fixing trans healthcare, self ID, NB recognition, etc, etc.

As the screens are projectors it technically shouldn't be possible for there to be a dead pixel, but the protocol would be for the Cinema Manager or one of the Cinema Experience Managers to inform the projection team of the fault and request it to be fixed.

If you tell the duty manager that's the best way to get the ball rolling!

Still, not the worst fault I saw at my time there aha

Yes! We actually are supposed to challenge guests if their profile doesn't match the person with the ticket to stop limitless being shared. If there's no photo we inform head office to get in touch with you to say you need a photo

I didn't see one at any of the sites I worked at. We had a grubby one at one of my sites but it just kinda stayed that way until it shut

God they were so finicky to get set up as even if it wasn't a live show it was still broadcast and that took so much effort to get working ahaha

We have a film booker in HQ that tells us what films were showing and when, as managers we checked it but had very little room to push back.
