We are proud to be a co-claimant in this case taking Keir Starmer and the UK government to court over their climate failings! 💥The UK isn’t doing its fair share to protect people at home or abroad – it’s time to step up.
🌏 NEW: The UK government is failing to tackle global heating – so we’re forcing it to take action with Global Legal Action Network.

…tells you everything you need to know about why our mainstream media is a closed shop, broken, and no longer fit for purpose.

I know I say this an awful lot on the podcast but please, please, please email your MP before this atrocious, anti-trans guidance is laid in front of parliament.

This Government is currently sitting on an EHRC Code of Practice that will lead to the segregation and exclusion of trans people in public life.

If Labour doesn't intend to adhere to its human rights obligations anyway, there's little point in us being signatories to the ECHR. Better, more honest, for Mahmood to join Reform in campaigning to leave it.

Why do we keep talking about trans healthcare?
Because of statistics like this.
Because every day waiting, in this world obsessed with harassing trans people, is a battle that many don't survive.
So, we keep talking about it, and keep fighting back against systemic transphobia.
