  1. I've been out the loop, only just seen the #EHRC guidance.

    Wow, the UK is now more fucked up.

    It's welcoming full transphobic assault on people.

    No trans people allowed in sport.

    Encouraging outing trans people or anyone who might not conform.

    Nothing is safe.

  2. "On Friday, the Idaho Senate passed the most extreme anti-transgender bathroom ban in the United States: a law that applies to both public buildings and private businesses and carries severe criminal penalties."

  3. Watching our Government suck up to Donald Trump, I think we know where they stand on Misogyny.

    Will they take the Tech bros to task over the wave of misogyny sweeping the nation via our devices?

    Nope, they'll fuck about with toilets instead.

  4. But that's exactly what you'll be doing if you give in to the Transphobes. This isn't about 'Safety' , this is about Control.

  5. @staringatclouds the cowardly way the push the responsibility of the dirty deed onto the Public, the TERFs can't harass every Trans person themselves but they can coerce the British Public into being obedient little snitches.

    History and Current Events show us exactly where this is going, yet few dare mention the parallels in Westminster or the Media, the fucking cowards.

  6. "SHOW US YOUR GENTIALS TO USE THIS TOILET.....SHOW ME!"

    This is what Labour wants to inflict on anybody who doesn't fit the ideal of feminine or masculine, ie...most of us.

    I wonder how much violence this will instigate, and remember, this was all about 'women's safety' even though there have never been any figures to back this up, but JK Rowling somehow speaks for ALL Women, can't argue with her...she's rich....

  7. The #UK has gone from a #bathroomBan being unthinkable to a #Labour government implementing an extraordinarily authoritarian one. #Trans lives are to be made unlivable, without a vote.

    This article by Toby Buckle is long — it's labelled as a 32 minute read — but it's by far the best article I have read on UK's first overtly #fascist law.

    "In recent months, the Trump administration has sought to strong-arm schools and universities into enacting policies that discriminate against transgender students. While some prestigious institutions—including Brown, Columbia, and Penn—have capitulated to federal threats in order to preserve their funding, others have pushed back. Denver Public Schools is the latest to reject the administration’s demands, with the superintendent declaring that the district “will protect all of their students from this hostile administration,” refusing to institute a transgender bathroom ban.

    "In a statement posted to Instagram, Dr. Alex Marrero, DPS Superintendent, speaks out, “I usually don’t make videos like these, but it’s absolutely necessary to send a very clear message to our entire community and in particular, our LGBTQ+ community. As you might have seen in the news, the federal government has decided to take a firm stance and have us roll back our support to the LGBTQ+ community, and of course, we’re not having it… We will continue to stand in solidarity, and as you engage this weekend and beyond, I just wanted to let you know that we got you, and everything is going to be ok.”

    "This weekend, four additional major school districts in Virginia publicly declared they will not comply with demands from the Trump administration’s Department of Education to ban transgender students from using bathrooms that match their gender. Their statements follow Loudoun County Public Schools’ vote last week to uphold protections for transgender students. Together, the five districts represent one of the most significant coordinated acts of defiance against the administration’s anti-trans education policy to date—especially as universities and hospital systems elsewhere have capitulated under similar pressure. In response, the Department of Education has begun the process to revoke funding for programs supporting students with disabilities, low-income families, and free and reduced-price lunches—heightening the stakes in what has become a nationwide battle over civil rights in education.

    "The school districts refusing compliance with the Trump administration include Alexandria City Public Schools, Arlington Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, and Prince William County Public Schools. This is in addition to Loudoun County Public Schools, which was the first district to defy Trump administration demands."
