I love animals, knitting, gardening, clean air, chick peas, photography and tractors. Ancient feminist. She/Her. Was once a cat, or maybe a mouse? Instablock Covid-deniers and bigots. Capybaras forever!
Posted with full Alt Text. Surely they could have slipped in one more point - Universal Human Rights: We call for a rethink of recent policies harmful to marginalised communities, especially disabled, trans, asylum-seeking and migrant people, and a commitment to amending legislation where required.
Esther's final text to Brianna seemed odd to me. If she'd replied, "It's ok to come back if you want," or similar, her daughter might still be alive. I've wondered if her fixation on blaming phones was to avoid thinking she may have missed a chance to save her life. www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/b...
With Alt Text. The Chair of the UK Equality and Human Rights Commission, follows 38 accounts on Bluesky that have transphobia labels and/or are on one or more transphobia block lists due to their content. It appears she does not follow any trans people, nor any trans-supportive organisations.
Worth noting all 5 Supreme Court Justices in For Women Scotland v Scottish Ministers 2025 were also on the panel of 7 justices in this case.
It's not hyperbole. New EA2010 Statutory Code says those who think gay sex is a sin may not have negative attitudes to gay people and "gender criticals" may not have negative attitudes to trans people. It could be discrimination to stereotype them.😟 assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6a0de6...
...And dog attacks have risen steadily since DDA 1991, which shows how pointless the Act has been. www.bva.co.uk/media/4115/f... onlinecpdacademy.co.uk/blog/dog-bit...
Yes. May have been before your time. I DO remember lurid descriptions of attacks in the tabloids, how an ineffective law was sped through so the Government could claim to be "doing something," and the 100s of healthy, well-behaved pets PTS after subjective assessments. www.bcu.ac.uk/news-events/...
Excellent thread in reply to this nonsense take on how and why successive UK Governments since 2019 (Tory and Labour) embraced trans-hostile policy, with increasing fervency. Trans human rights aren't being revoked because trans people overplayed their hand. They never even got to hold the cards.
It is very good - just click, then tick the box to get the non-paywalled article.
With alt text. It's a cruel, contradictory mish mash of absurdity. It's a gift to bigoted busybodies and bullies. Clear as mud for actual service providers. Provider - Excuse me, are you trans? Customer - I'm not telling you. Provider - Uh, okay, sorry to bother you.
Another transphobic account for consideration. It's trolling threads discussing the trans-hostile "Code of Practice" the UK Government is trying to sneak through during its recess. Thank you.
As a Charitable Interest Organisation, SM's charitable activities would be things in pursuit of its objects (copied from website - sorry is all caps.) A is odd, as no UN declarations or conventions mention "biological sex." Accounts show mostly K - salaries, legal fees, lobbying, promoting disinfo.
Ages since I've heard a guy do, "I DID support feminism, but since you won't do what I say to advance women's rights, I'll stop backing your cause. It's YOUR fault." Perhaps these faux progressives are too young to know they sound just as ignorant, bitter, fragile and silly as their predecessors.
White guy lauds his "important conversation" with another white guy on the Left's "Ideological Purity" risking a rise in ecofascism. Many women (cis and trans) challenge his claim their rights conflict. He spends hours telling them they're wrong and blocks them. Faux progressives have fragile egos!
They're already "hanging" trans people, and migrants, and disabled people, more so than the Tories ever, and in some cases, worse than Reform propose. Also, you seem to enjoy the idea of trans people being hanged far too much.
