  7. FFS! 😡

    The Women & Equalities job has always been a secondary responsibility in the #ukgov, a post held by a cabinet minister with some other brief.

    But #Burnham has given it as a standalone job to the woman who has worked to drive #trans people out of public life.

    Now #BridgetPhillipson can be a full time Minister for #Transphobia.😡

    Eff you, #AndyBurnham 😡
