Deffo worth a read!
How many more times must the EHRC be reported, before GANHRI takes notice and does something about their accreditation?

NET Tram 210 in pride livery goes over the Wilford Toll Bridge - 21st June 2025.
As the protest draws to a close, thank you to all those who showed up in support of trans rights.
The protest organisers have also reminded us that Nottingham Trans Pride is on Saturday 20th June this year - mark your calendars!
The last speech has ended, and the protest is ending with a few protest chants such as "trans rights are human rights!"
A speech about mainstream media representation (the lack thereof)
A speech has been made about media bias - mainstream media not presenting trans voices, protests or prides, but willingly presenting Tommy Robinson's march.
