I've said this before but from this side of the Pond Labour seems like "What if Biden had done project 2025 himself to get out ahead of Trump"

The Home Secretary has been feeding their agenda herself. Her recent X video furthering the idea that immigration is purely a problem to be stamped down. She even described it as her number 1 priority.

Great to join with 100’s of lesbians and inclusive allies in Leeds today for the Leeds Dyke March 💪🏻🩷

Despite the rain the sense of community and trans solidarity was out in force ✊🏻🏳️‍⚧️

In contrast, the transphobic ‘Lesbian Strength March’ had such a pitiful turnout (30ish) they didn’t even march!

A pathetic gaggle of about 30 transphobes in the rain

Several hundred trans inclusive lesbians and allies as part of the ‘Leeds Dyke March’ - too many to fit in one picture.

100,000 trans people & allies march through London without threatening or making anyone feel like it is a no-go area.

Media: crickets.

100,000 fascists & Nazis march through London threatening violence & making anyone not cishet & white feel it is a no-go area.

Media: wall-to-wall live coverage.

Two men have raped a Sikh woman, telling her "You don't belong in this country, get out."

This is where the dehumanisation of migrants and people of colour leads: the most serious physical and sexual violence.

Flag shaggers out and about in London today, demanding free speech.

The same bastards who silence actual free speech, and condone violence.

I see Lord Hodge is to retire, or 'do a runner' before things become hot.

Addition of Progesterone Leads to Increased Breast Growth for Transgender Women

Addition of Progesterone Leads to Increased Breast Growth for Transgender Women | Amsterdam UMC

The addition of the hormone progesterone to gender-affirming hormone therapy leads to increased breast growth for transgender people following feminising hormone therapy. This is demonstrated by an Amsterdam UMC-led trial among 90 participants and these results are presented today at the European Professional Association for Transgender Health (EPATH) annual congress in Hamburg.

Sissy porn doesn't make people trans.

It is more likely that violent thugs like Linehan make people trans - Linehan's foul behavior is enough to put women off men for life

Transsexual women exist, always have, always will. Whether you like it or not. The more you try to erase us, the stronger we become — not through protest or legal cases, but by living our lives each and every day, enriching those who know, value and love us. And we'll pee where we damn well please.

Whilst this is a positive piece, it does not highlight that Linehan is a transphobic thug.

This is not a matter of 'free speech' it is a public safety issue.

This vile individual called for violence in public toilets, and threatened trans women online

A very positive piece from the Indy.

The author says he has a trans family member -- as has been observed many times, it makes all the difference when people _know_ a trans person.

Cracking down on transphobic hate speech doesn’t make the UK a police state

Graham Linehan’s arrest for allegedly suggesting that people assault trans women is not an assault on free speech, writes Marc Burrows. The scandal is that we live in a society where some people think...

I am going to go out on a limb right now as a trans woman and say the phrase ‘trans rights are human rights’ is meaningless.
It’s a get out of jail free card for people who intend to do nothing to protect us.
I want concrete statements not meaningless platitudes.

Some absolute bangers.

If reports of the EHRC guidance are correct, it is not compatible with trans people's human rights.

It would usher in a system of segregation, policed via threats of legal action by those with money to burn.

Trans people, as well as people who are not trans, face harassment.
