He spends his time calling trans people & their advocates nonces.

It's deeply troubling that an old man can harass a young girl & still get away with it.

I'm sure there's a term for adults who do this to children & it's not anti trans activist.

🏳️‍🌈 some good news 🏳️‍🌈
BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Good law helped this victim, this could set a precedent for the police to actually take action.

Considering the police have essentially legalised rape, making them accountable could help change society in the correct direction.

Donate if you can afford or reshare the campaign if you can't.
How will sexual violence stop if the police won't take it seriously?

When Nina Cresswell named the man who sexually assaulted her he sued for defamation - and he lost. But why did she have to take that risk? We're helping her sue the police who failed to investigate him. goodlaw.social/vtev

This is the biggest piece I've ever worked on, 12x12 feet. It's painted on a drop cloth. It is going to hang in an activity center.

It's definitely a question we will look at. Indeed, if cis women are being turned away now by people who think they 'might be trans' we'd love to hear from them.
Recipie for disaster. Can women who are publicly humiliated and turned away based on wholly subjective and prejudicial judgements sue the provider, or take other meaningful action?

It's transgender day of remembrance.

Unison has a lovely message that reminds us that we need to support each other.

For anyone who needs support but doesn't have it there are organisations that can help support trans people struggling.

This was reported 2 years ago.

This led by donkeys report on Farage should be played on repeat in all reform areas.

Have a watch if you haven't seen it.

Racist from the off set, used to sing nazi youth songs.

Walks like a nazi, talks like a nazi, sings like a nazi... A patriot??

No he's a Nazi.

The window of safe places are getting smaller.
Since people asked, my top places for trans people right now are France, Australia (parts), Canada (parts), Spain (though politics there are tenuous), Iceland, Uruguay.
It's being reported that New Zealand has banned puberty blockers for transgender youth. I removed New Zealand from my recommendations to families fleeing a while back after the far right saw a surge in power in the country.

Sad day for NZ trans youth.

“Anything to Declare?”

Acrylic on plaster. 2025.

17th November 2025: British Government announced policy ideas on immigration. Asylum seekers would have valuables seized. On TV, a gov’t spokesman was asked if that would include the refugees’ gold teeth? 🦷
HOW DID IT COME TO THIS?

It's international mens day.

Men are less likely to access psychological therapies than women: only 36% of referrals to NHS talking therapies are for men.

Men are responsible for 89% of violence towards women & girls.

Seeking help, helps us all.

Unbelievably believable.

Both aircraft back in the air by 12th of July.

The quoted figure for repairs isn't held by the MoD. It's a number quoted from a private company.

The MoD hasn't paid anything for damages by Palestinian action.

Yet quoted damages is why Palestinian action are proscribed.

The ideology of oppression, segregation the GC framework doesn't make sense to me.

My Sunday morning reading;

"This paper contributes to the ongoing task of analysing the ideological connections between this strand of feminism and the far right."
