Already seeing some terrible takes on here about supporting science re the puberty blocker trial.

Science that is unethical & designed terribly, influenced by those who don't want us to exist, is never ever going to lead to useful outcomes.

& this trial will cause immense harm to participants.

Now we’re demanding that any new Code must outline how providers can lawfully *include* trans folk in their services.

We have a fabulous new website that tells you a little more about our project. Please have a look and let us know what you think! www.medicinewithoutdoctors.org

A blue and purple square graphic with text in black that reads "When any pupil goes to school, they should be able to do so safely, have appropriate toilets and changing rooms they can use, and be listened to and have their identity respected. Changes made yesterday by the Scottish Government to their guidance on supporting transgender pupils in schools will make this much harder for trans children and young people than it was before. " The Equality Network and Scottish Trans logos are in white below the text.

A blue and purple square graphic with text in black that reads "If the law means that trans pupils really must be treated in a way that we hope that everyone can see is not in their best interests, then the way forward is clear – we must change the law. It is not good enough to say that this is just the way it has to be." The Equality Network and Scottish Trans logos are in white below the text.

When any pupil goes to school, they should be able to do so safely, have appropriate toilets and changing rooms they can use, and be listened to and have their identity respected.

Fantastic from @sianberry.bsky.social!

“I believe the proposed guidance from the EHRC is currently not fit for purpose, and not suitable to be placed before MPs at all.”

Keep writing to your MPs, folk—it’s working!

Ok. They’ve pissed me off.

I’m back to tell you 3 things about ID cards:

1. Migrants ALREADY HAVE biometric ID cards & govts have been trying to digitise them for years w repeated fuckups & failures causing complete chaos - they don’t work, you do not want that system for you.

Four arrested after photo of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein projected onto Windsor Castle Arrests come as Trump lands in UK for landmark second state visit

UK Law 101 for trans people...

Projecting already widely-published images of #Trump with Geoffrey #Epstein on Windsor Castle is "malicious communications"

Advocating violence against trans women is not a "malicious communication".

That British Sense Of Fair Play in action.

The UK in numbers this weekend: 425 arrests made for peacefully protesting against genocide. 0 arrests of those who support, fund, or commit genocide

This is important, imo. The draft code doesn't state that trans exclusion is mandatory. It just keeps saying trans exclusion is lawful while avoiding talking about inclusion as lawful. Stuff in the papers suggesting otherwise is mostly just trying to create a perception of a law that doesn't exist.
