Stop Sex Matters infiltrating the Council of Europe
In just one week, the Council of Europe will be voting to ban conversion therapy. This would be an incredibly important step to stop the rollback in the rights of LGBTQ+ people. But Sex Matters is inf...

With characteristic intellectual dishonesty, The Times, and Geraldine Scott, having come to us for quote have deliberately omitted most of what we said in response. Compare and contrast. 2/2

The EHRC's draft Statutory Guidance "would deputise all of us to police each other’s genders in public – to monitor and question how we look, how we behave, how we move through the world."
As the government stalls, TERFs are removing trans people from British life
It’s time for the left to build a culture of noncompliance.

Graham Linehan is cheering for a man who shot a woman in the face while calling her a fucking bitch.

JK Rowling sits on her hands.

Meanwhile, Posie Parker is tweeting that women should stay at home while men work.

Tell me how the "gender critical" movement is a women's rights movement again?

When they're calling Renee Gold (the woman murdered by Trump's Gestapo) a domestic terrorist, it's important to note that some trans women in the US are getting FBI letters accusing them of being domestic terrorists simply for posting positively about their lives on social media.

As we’ve reached more people in recent months, and are approaching 80k signatures, we of course receive push-back against our core message.

We simply won’t engage where that feedback debates trans identities, positions trans people as a harmful group, or suggests they are something to be fixed.

Add your name to this open letter to the BBC.
Despite reposting the call to arms below, I didn’t act on it until a few minutes ago.

Why? Because it felt too hard and overwhelming.

It was SO EASY.

Add your name to the letter now. If you choose not to write anything individual it will take less than a minute ❤️

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

Please share this widely. There have been 13 peer-reviewed critiques of the Cass Review, to the extent that academia regards it as pseudoscience, but so far all have been subject to organised censorship by mainstream media. This is the first time one has broken through. Oz Guardian only still.
Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there.

I am sick to the back teeth of that 'poor, isolated and targeted' Peggie being all over the news. The new poster queen, she's loving it and lapping it up. Bigotry does pays it seems.
What about Beth?, she is the target here, we all have her in our thoughts and hope she is ok. #IStandWIthBeth

GB News grilled me apparently?

Only problem with this is I've never been on their nonsense channel.

They lie - obsessively.

She went to a talk by Helen Joyce, bought her anti-trans book, and then recommended it on campus.

In the article she says, "I could also own Mein Kampf. It wouldn’t make me a Nazi."

*clears throat*

GOING TO A TALK BY HITLER, BUYING HIS BOOK, AND RECOMMENDING IT ON CAMPUS, MAKES YOU A NAZI.

Never before in the history of legal scholarship has there been such deep unhappiness about a case from the party that 'won' it.
No one can be surprised by the rank hypocrisy of Murdoch's 'Trump is a feminist hero' and 'Ending Roe v Wade was right' Times. But worth noting the difference between when it gets what it wants from the judiciary and when it doesn't.

There's been very little coverage in the British media of the employment tribunal ruling that found Sandie Peggie had harassed a woman

It's refreshing to see The National step up with fuller, more accurate reporting, shedding light on the realities of this case where most other outlets have failed
Excellent journalism from my colleague Xander Elliards, looking at the Sandie Peggie verdict and which parts of haven't received much media attention.

From Peggie harassing Dr Upton, to racist jokes and her evidence being deemed "not credible", there is a LOT.

Hate speech is not free speech. We think X (Twitter) is breaking the law for failing to remove 92% of the racist and religious hatred we reported, so we’ve filed a complaint to Ofcom.
