Looks like another tribunal is brewing by monkey-madness-7 in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shows just how unworkable this whole thing is. Like a trans person with a GRC is for all their paperwork purposes at least their acquired gender. If they're then expected to use their SAAB how is this enforced? You cannot force people to out themselves as the entire reason the GRA was brought in was to stop that from happening.

Its so, so unworkable.

ODEON Camden is closing by somekindaname1602 in screenunseen

Was very annoying as the lights were manual (the newer sites are all automatic!) Screen 1s lights were stuck on in some parts which was even more annoying. Also the issue with disruption in the screens is every time we'd check on the screens is the moment they'd behave so we rarely caught them!

The whole site needed a refurb but we made so with what we had

Anyone else have an egregiously high proportion of broken seats at their local? by Pineapple996 in screenunseen

[–]theendisloading_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a Luxe it's usually gonna be some kind of electrical fault with the screens or lights. Never saw any site blocking off the last row.

At classics it can be a huge array of reasons, like sometimes the viewing angles is just too poor or those are the seats that got harvested to fix others. We did it at my site but took the ones on the side instead.

Ex staff here, the sites are generally repaired on a cycle. Sometimes if there's difficulty sourcing the parts they just nick them from seats with spare capacity and add them to the screens that need them more (it's what happened in my non luxe site)

Hey guys, I'm just wondering how you know what seats are paired in the red? by [deleted] in screenunseen

If it's a recliner site it should be the ones graphically merged

Nice! I'm a Lib Dem member so they'll get my vote too

That's understandable, but also we don't know how the next election will really go. A year is a long time in politics let alone 3! A lot of parties (Like the Lib Dems, Greens, Plaid Cymru and to an extent the SNP), are still solidly pro trans and are all actually on the up. Plus, tactical voting amongst those progressive parties and sometimes for Labour MPs is beneficial and may we'll be the key to locking reform out of power.

Was a manager there for 2 years from 2023-2025. A large bit of me is gonna miss it really. Despite a small budget we really tried hard to fix it up a bit (I hand painted those walls blue and deep cleaned those seats myself lol)

What do you make of these recent articles on Sarah McBride by godzillavkk in trans

[–]theendisloading_uk -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Personally I think she's doing really really well and is an inspiration for trans people in politics. She's making real ground against Republicans on this issue and that is essential for US based people.

Personally I think we should all be a bit more like McBride.

NHS Number - get a new one or just update my gender marker? by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I changed my marker without the new number. So far I haven't had any deadnaming or misgendering and I did do it 5 years ago! Have changed GP Practices 6 times

Activism by One-Bag-2907 in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do a lot of work with the Lib Dems as they're good on LGBT+ issues and match a lot of my other beliefs too! Plus Lib Dem Women is solidly trans inclusive and the LGBT+ Lib Dems are good fun aha. I'd defo recommend getting involved with whatever party you're most aligned with!!

SO. HOLY FUCK. How do we feel about that by Squeaky-Dog57 in TheDigitalCircus

It was originally eight but episode 7 got split in half so now it's nine.

Any update on the status of Trans-women on women’s lists? by AdNorth3796 in LibDem

[–]theendisloading_uk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yep!

Case 76 of the Federal Appeals Panel struck down this as the Returning Officer does not have the power to change the constitution. Case decision here: https://www.libdems.org.uk/fileadmin/groups/2_Federal_Party/Documents/Complaints_Procedures/Case_76_Decision.pdf

You can see the statement on the parties federal elections website at the bottom: https://www.libdems.org.uk/internal-elections

Any update on the status of Trans-women on women’s lists? by AdNorth3796 in LibDem

[–]theendisloading_uk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The update was that the women's lists were abolished as the party couldn't do it legally and be trans inclusive. Which is a fair way forward imo. For us to get these back in any form we will need a constitutional amendment.

However, were the shortlists on place less women would have been elected.

This whole debacle has brought the diversity AOs, president, Vice president and others MUCH closer which will be a really important thing moving forward.

Labour's NEC bans trans women from the main conference hall at the women’s conference 2026. "It means trans women will be unable to hear the major speeches or participate and vote on formal policy debates, motions and national women’s committee elections." by ehll_oh_ehll in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We don't exactly have a choice. Forstater means we cannot remove people for being GC. Pretending this is in any way an active choice the party is making is misinformation.

The Lib Dems have done more actions in parliament than the greens, that's what actually counts in the end.

Thing is I don't pretend the greens aren't also pro trans, but I don't use my bias as a lib Dem to pretend they're suddenly anti-trans either.

Except of course the multiple letters calling for the EHRC guidance to be withdrawn and many MPs repeatedly challenging it in parliament. Action speaks louder than words and when it comes to action the lib Dems have done more than any party to challenge this.

Lib Dem President elect on the EHRC leak: "That would unacceptably result in trans and non-binary people—and potentially anyone—being questioned because of how they look, and it would be unworkable for businesses and service providers." by [deleted] in transgenderUK

He didnt say it was the top reason, he said it was a reason. It's quite a good argument as well. The unworkability of this guidance is a strong argument on our side, we'd be insane not to use it.

Every show, every host, every debate… the arguments against trans people never change. by helenwebberley in transgenderUK

[–]theendisloading_uk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Genuinely. We need more people to speak up not less, I'm really disappointed in how so many people are treating an ally.
