Please can we stop saying "dignity and respect" while those seeking to take away our healthcare use those same words? It's not like we don't deserve dignity and respect, but the words have become so meaningless.

There has been some uninformed speculation in the media about the Green Party’s disciplinary processes. Rightly, LGBTIQA+ Greens has no knowledge about any specific incidents and we would not comment on any individual case, but we are able to make the following things clear: 1/4

People should be able to attend Pride visibly and without fear. The events in Tiergarten have sent shockwaves through the LGBTQIA+ community. We stand united, to defend our right to peaceful assembly, and will ensure that hate and fear never silence our voices.

Some groups are praising the draft bill as if it provides protection for people from conversion therapy... When in reality it is less capable of holding water than a colander.

Update: Young people & families today received shocking & transphobic letters from NHS. These letters tell people that endocrine care (blockers / HRT) is being fully withdrawn in 7 weeks time (July 31st). Forced medical detransition. This country is a danger to trans children & young people.

Turns out a few days ago Darren Grimes gave me a mention in one of his videos. Darren says: “…Brooke is talking about Local Politics, actual things that matter to people! Cleaner streets! Tidier establishments! That’s good use of a local councillor’s time.”

I, and others, are desperately tired of every single time something comes out that bans women from womens spaces for situations they can't control, "dignity and respect" or "kindness and care" gets wheeled out. Words mean nothing. It's high time organisations grow a backbone.

"kindness, care and respect" may be their intention, but it's not coming across well when you consider they're banning women and girls from their organisation for women and girls, based on a situation that they can not control.

I went to town this week, spotted some homophobic graffiti in a Public Car Park. Things like this graffiti might make locals feel unsafe. Returned today to remove the offensive graffiti. Just one small thing our local Greens are doing. Let’s take PRIDE in our local area. join.greenparty.org.uk

I'm running as a candidate for the next Campaigns Officer role at @lgbtiqagreens.bsky.social. I've been involved in several LGBTIQA+ campaigns over the last year, and would like to use my skills to further the aims of LGBTIQA+ Greens. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

She is sat in front of a green background with a transparent trans flag texture. The text on the image reads: voting open elections close 8 March. Brooke Linnet for Campaigns officer. The image contains an imprint which reads: promoted and produced by Brooke Linnet as part of her campaign for election to the LGBTIQA+ Greens committee.

In the wake of the murder of Renee Good by ICE agents, far right influencers took to the internet not to mourn, but to excuse and even celebrate the execution on camera of an innocent woman by the state. We know where this leads. We’ve seen it before. Let’s talk about it.

Candace Owens makes bank of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, from lizard people, to Frankist plots, and has made bank through transvestigations. In doing so she actively protects power from scrutiny, driving anger away from those who deserve it, to trans and Jewish scapegoats. Let’s talk about it.

I take no pleasure in this. As a Green, I have a lot of disagreements with LibDems on economic issues, but I want every party to be trans inclusive. LibDems rejected this move at their conference, so it is bad for both internal democracy and trans people. Their leadership needs to grow a backbone.
