Labour is on borrowed time, the rot has infected every single MP, councillor and member.
Anyone that remains affiliated to Labour by the end of Monday are signalling that they are racist scum.

I don't feel like anyone is believed by doctors.
As a cis guy it was a very long fight to get an EDS diagnosis. Even now doctors question whether it is a real diagnosis.
I'd like to be seen for autism but I have a deep distrust of doctors because of the former fight and no help since diagnosis.

I think of us as the canaries in a coal mine. Miners carried canaries (yellow birds) in cages. They are more sensitive to carbon monoxide than humans. If the canary died, the miner had knew that the air was poisoned and could escape. If trans people are safe, it’s safe for everyone.
A sacrificial anode is used on steel ships. To prevent corrosion, the sacrificial anode erodes rather than the ship. They are replaced when done.
For some in the LGBT movement, Trans people serve the same purpose, our rights are eroded, to save theirs.
There are no replacements for us. 🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️

Hey UK trans friends, I need advice
A friend was referred to a GIC in 2023, and now the GIC has turned around and claimed that they're not in their system (their GP record confirms a referral was sent)
Any advice on how to get the GIC to honour the referral instead of forcing an even longer wait?

Cheering the two child limit ending isn’t patting Starmer’s Labour on the back or ignoring his record. It’s acknowledging 8 years of hard campaigning and ridding the country of a cruel, toxic policy. Half a million children won’t be hungry anymore. Celebrate today. Tomorrow, pick the next fight.

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap.
Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long.
This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters.
