🚨 RIGHT NOW opposite Labour Party HQ in London.

We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

We requested an internal review into missing communications from our prior FOI.

The EHRC are now delaying the internal review, citing a 20-day extension without giving any lawful justification. Reviews should conclude in 20 working days, extended only in exceptional cases. No reason was given.

The EHRC has just refused to answer all 9 of our active FOI requests, using Section 14(1) of the FOI Act. They claim we’re overloading them, despite our requests being public interest and properly targeted.

When "Gender Critical" people say "you can't change sex" it's (obviously) not an observation. It's a demand. Hence why they can't ever justify it beyond just saying it again

We have already supported one case against a sports governing body and have others planned. Some of those governing bodies are lying - I put it as strongly as that - about the legal advice they have been given. Their carnival of cruelty must end.
"Calling the decision to bar Billie Sky Walker 'heartbreaking,' her former teammate Lucy Leiter, 24, said it was not the case that 'only trans women think they should play,' adding, 'The support has been unequivocal from everyone I’ve ever played with.'" www.nbcnews.com/world/united...
Landmark ruling on trans women by U.K.'s top court sparks heartbreak and confusion
The judgment has implications for a wide range of life in the U.K., be it admission to changing rooms or decisions on hospital beds, equal pay claims and domestic violence shelters.

Gaza is being deliberately starved to death in front of the whole world, and the only people being arrested over it are those who opposed the crime.

5/ The word Transgender has been erased, in all but one title

When referring to transgender people, the only time the term is used is in the subtitle for the LGBT section. Otherwise all references are to "gender questioning" or the Equality Law protected characteristic of "gender reassignment"

1/ Topline

New statutory guidance, published today, will take effect from September 1st, 2026.

It instructs schools to avoid using material that "encourages pupils to question their gender", as well as adopting a number of other gender-critical perspectives into the curriculum

Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

The Government's concessions completely ignore the thousands of Disabled people on Universal Credit with LCWRA.

They are still proposing this be slashed from £416 to just over £200.

This bill cannot be salvaged by concessions - it must be scrapped.

It's not even just that they're banning trans healthcare, they're banning public funding for any therapy at all for trans people where they "affirm social transition", aka they use your name and pronouns and acknowledge the reality of how you move through the world. No support at all.
Ohio just passed it's budget that bans funding for MENTAL HEALTH therapy for all trans people in medicaid.

This is what eradication policies look like.

Exactly right. The JPAC decision notice they've based this off states to use female ranges; but for a trans man stable on HRT, this could allow them to donate at levels below safe limits.

To summarise: This is more or less a stealth ban on trans women donating blood in the UK, as they won't meet the male requirements. I suspect this is unintentional, with no malice intended.

I'd be interested if this would count as direct discrimination under EqA. 9/9

Dachau opened in March 1933 as a concentration camp for political prisoners. It didn't become an extermination camp until much later. The lesson is that this starts slowly until the atrocities are inevitable. We're on that march now.

The media coverage around the Florida concentration camp seems familiar.

From the NYT covering the opening of Dachau in the summer of 1933.

I just voted against proscribing Palestine Action, a civil disobedience group, as a terrorist organisation. But I'm furious that in doing so, the government forced me and others to vote against proscribing two other clearly terrorist groups. Cynical and dangerous from govt.
