People cannot be treated differently based on what could happen. If we were able to exclude anti-trans+ individuals for the reasons you gave, we wouldn’t be where we are now. Reality is they are very strategic in how they work to embed themselves in all areas

Doesn’t work that way I’m afraid. Believe me, we have tried to warn, even about the formation of a known anti-trans+ staff network. We have had high level conversations about it.

CSO Connor Freel was patrolling the streets of Mold, North Wales, when 19-
year old Declan Armstrong and his friend pulled up on bikes on the opposite side of the road. The teenager shouted: "Is it a boy or a girl?" at the PCSO, twice. Freel, who is transgender and had previously said in an interview that "no-one suspects I was born female" , reported the incident to colleagues
as a hate crime.

Portaloos are fully enclosed spaces and gender neutral. @downloadfest.bsky.social have actively chosen to target the trans+ community by following flawed interim guidance from an organisation led by a known anti-trans+ individual. Transphobia has no place in the alt/metal community.
Black text against orange-yellow ombré background. Text reads:
“Over the years, l've seen Download Festival completely lose sight of what the alternative and metal community actually stands for.
Download has now consolidated its position by enforcing the recent EHRC interim guidance about trans+ people using single sex spaces.”

It's well-known that the EHRC is chaired by Kishwar Falkner - an openly anti-trans individual.
The EHRC is also subject to a legal challenge due to its unlawful interpretation of the recent Supreme Court ruling.
Yet Download has actively chosen to adopt flawed advice. Download has actively chosen to target trans+ people and put them at risk.
All whilst taking their money.”Black text against orange-yellow ombré background. Text reads:
“If only Download put the same effort into tackling theft, drug use and SA...”

Words change nothing when it comes to proven existence 🏳️‍⚧️
Black text against an orange-yellow ombre background. Underneath the text is a heart in the trans+ flag colours. Text reads: "Allies...If you’re truly an ally to the trans+ community, we need you to be seen AND heard. Don’t just stand by and watch the cleansing of a vulnerable group in real time. Do something.Otherwise you’re just an ally to your own power and privilege. And for fuck’s sake, stop supporting hate by buying, or indulging yourself in, a certain wizardy brand. Human lives are far more important than your self-gratification. If you really can’t live without a quick hit, just have a cup of tea or a wank instead. Trans+ people have always existed. Purposely excluding us from conversations or legal cases for arrogant or easy wins, to force the world to be something it’s not, won’t ever stop us from existing. No amount of legislation, wording or bullying can ever change the fact that trans+ people have been, and always will be, part of society."

Thoughts about today
White text against a black background. Text reads as follows:
“Today is a joyous day for some people but an awful and emotional day for others. Awful because we see what we could’ve had. Emotional at what we should’ve had, as we’re bombarded with messages of love for moms that understood the assignment. Instead, we’ve been forced to navigate life without someone to turn to or to rely upon when we needed help, were lost or simply needed a hug. Not through loss but through active severance. I see you and I feel your pain, today and every day. Please remember it’s not your fault that you even had to cut ties in the first place. It’s their fault for failing you.”

Unless I'm missing a memo from laying low this week, it's important to remember that "NHS centres" have NOT closed. Only Tavistock closed. Adult GDCs are still open/seeing patients. Support is still available to GPs. GPs are conflating adult services with youth services as an excuse to deny HRT.
