Where, one might ask, would “trans activists” have got the impression that the code was a step backwards?

EHRC acknowledges that there are potentially negative impacts for those with the protected characteristic of gender reassignment from the updates to the Code as a result of how service providers implement FWS.

The sense that the EHRC wants to have its cake and eat it - a facially discriminatory code which doesn’t actually change anything because nobody will police it.

The Labour Party’s women’s conference on 26/9/26 was an embarrassing farce, with only 200 delegates of the 1,000 normal attendance (no major unions) in protest of the Labour Party’s shameful abandonment of trans people following the legally absurd ruling of the Supreme Court in FWS in April 2025.

When we talk about dark money infesting our politics we generally think about Reform's Russian links, or the ADF pouring overseas cash into Christian anti-abortion and anti-LGBT lawfare. But here we see dark money in the heart of the Labour movement, quietly funding transphobia and exclusion.

"Concerns". In narrative and policy terms, the "legitimate concerns" paradigm must be one of the greatest political disasters of the modern era. A racism laundry run by centrist pundits and politicians, which has achieved one thing and one thing only: the mainstreaming of the far right.

Yeah, so the 2010s were a long referendum on whether we should 1) be reasonable and decent people, and invest in infrastructure and services, or whether we were going to 2) be abysmal horrible bastards and let the island slide into the sea. I’m afraid politicians and press unified on 2).

two most successful social campaigns in the
UK recently (and which reversed course of an issue that seemed to be going one way) are on the socially conservative or status quo side

- Less consensus on net-zero (right/left split)
- Elite consensus moves to lower aid spending

Is this a global phenomenon? Maybe but equally other countries have legalised AD in same time period. Even in US states continue to legalise e.g. cannabis, ditto Germany, omething that feels a long way off here in UK.
So there does appear to be something particular to Britain.

Yes, the UK is unsafe for trans and gender non-conforming people, something which is being taken seriously by some European authorities. But lots of the rest of Europe is now seeing the same process start. And i don't think we have any answers other than point to the UK to see how this ends.

I'm at a European conference at the moment, and its so clear that the UK's current position essentially mirrors Russia's, despite the UK government's weasel words about dignity and respect. Most of Europe's trans people are terrified of what the UK Government has allowed.

With all respect to the BBC, the reason this story "matters" is not about whether it distracts from Reform's conference. It "matters" because it is important our leaders are not conspiring to break the law.

The creator of Harry Potter is dedicated to anti-trans ideology, something she shares with the far-right, and she's vowed to continue to use her immense wealth to fund anti-trans legislation. If you share her views on the anti-science, bigoted cult of transphobia then that's up to you.

He is talking about the 2010 EA: "It never occurred to us for one second that anybody would think of sex as anything other than biologically determined” which came 6 years after the GRA which literally allowed a trans person to change sex. Disingenuous or dangerously stupid? Or just both...

Aug 21st - Mei gets lost while looking for corn for her hospitalized mother. Mei's older sister, Satsuki, asks Totoro for help. He summons the Catbus. 📽️📅 My Neighbor Totoro (1988)

4 Screenshots from the movie "My Neighbor Totoro" (1988): First, a wooden chair sits in dappled sunlight, holding a watercolor paint set and a sketchbook with green plant drawings. Second, a young girl with pigtails in a pink dress clutches an ear of corn, standing beside a white creature, with the subtitle "No, this corn is for my Mommy!" Third, another girl in a yellow dress sits on the large, furry Totoro's belly in a forest, looking worried, with the subtitle "She must be scared, please help me find her." Fourth, the Catbus, a large, grinning, cat-shaped bus with glowing windows, carries Totoro and the girl with pigtails as it travels above treetops at dusk.
