Your regular reminder that my daughter Alice’s death wasn’t counted in Appleby’s report, despite her meeting all the criteria. And when I emailed the Tavistock adult GIC to inform them they could take Alice off the waitlist, because she’d died by suicide, they never replied. It’s a disgrace.

Bethany wore a “Protect The Dolls” t-shirt during rehearsals. The BBC posted it on their socials then quietly deleted and reposted it without showing her from the front. On TV last night they actually blurred the message #Strictly

A Tennessee appellate court has ruled that the killing of a woman may have been justifiable because she was trans. The court reversed a conviction, stating that the killer could have a new trial because the jury did not know the woman killed was trans. Trans panic in the modern era.

Killing of Woman May Have Been Justifiable Because She Was Trans, Tennessee Court Rules
The case is a bitter reminder of the ways LGBTQ people have had their identities weaponized by the courts in the past, most notoriously through a legal defense tactic known as gay or trans “panic.”

This Wednesday, Elon Musk called for the death sentence for transgender youth care providers. It was in reply to a post calling for full criminalization of all gender-affirming surgery. Musk is becoming even more radicalized in targeting trans people. Subscribe to support our journalism.

For all that it's been barely reported in the UK press, it's still hard to understate the importance of the stance @labourunionsuk.bsky.social has taken on trans and non-binary rights this week. Every single trade union affiliated to the party of government has stood up and said we will not comply.
Joint statement from National TULO

Solidarity with the trans and non-binary community

Labour's 11 affiliated trade unions stand in total solidarity with the trans and non-binary community.

Trans rights are human rights, and trans rights are workers' rights.

We in the trade union movement will do all we can to stand up for our trans members and all our trans siblings, to protect them from persecution, harassment and attack.

The government must act now to protect all trans people, to make sure their rights are protected, expanded and upheld in our workplaces and communities.

Labour Unions

Right hates trans people - most public go "it's the right, they're nuts". So-called left join in - "Well now, what's going on, there must be an issue if they agree!" It's why the Guardian/Labour going anti-trans is, ultimately, more much more harmful than the Times/Telegraph/Tories doing it.

it should be mentioned that the 2014 status quo for trans people still meant that we had suicide risks, unemployment numbers, life expectancy, poverty risk that were way worse than the average person, and somehow asking for this is seen as frivolous luxury and purity testing

It’s very simple and it’s been said over and over but I guess it needs saying continuously: if you deem one group too small to have equal rights you are enabling fascism, not fighting it. The people saying Dems are GREAT on trans rights are not paying attention and/or saying stuff like this.

BASH BACK @bashback.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
The London Assembly, spurred on by Reform UK, have elected to publicly condemn BASH BACK. This is a blatant attempt to distract from a wave of fascist and anti-trans violence conducted and spurred on by the state, politicians, and right-wing agitators. We won't be intimidated (1/2)
"London Assembly Publicly Condemns BASH BACK at Behest of Reform UK.
We won't be intimidated. Statement follows.""On 10th september 2026, the London Assembly voted to publicly condemn BASH BACK and call for its proscription by the Home Secretary.

This vote was called by alex wilson am of Reform UK, and voted through exclusively by Conservative and Reform Party members of the Assembly, with Lib Dems and Green members voting against, and Labour AMs abstaining.

This is a blatant attempt by the fascist right to criminalise disruptive non-violent protest as the state increases its stranglehold on trans lives, and Reform and the Conservatives celebrate violence within their own parties."Justifying their decision the Assembly have relied on the language of disgraced former MP and alleged sex-pest and bully John Woodcock (which we critiqued in our article for Freedom Press), as well as parroting the lie that BASH BACK is a violent organisation, due to - apparently - our depictions of hammers on social media. 

In doing this, Britain’s right have shamelessly weaponised the legacy of Jo Cox, whose murder by a neo-Nazi has long since been used to justify acts of authoritarian state violence, rather than to critique or condemn the xenophobic fascism that informed her murderer. 

Why? Because Reform UK practice that exact same kind of nationalist authoritarianism.

Reform have used BASH BACK - a non-violent group - as a scapegoat to evade their ideological connection to a wave of increasing anti-migrant and fascist violenceEchoing Woodcock, the Assembly also goes on to make serious accusations about our group surrounding the death of Anne Widdicombe, tantamount to interfering with a police investigation.

Despite stating this numerous times in the past, we must once again maintain that we do not practice any form of violence against any individual, and would never endorse or celebrate such violence. We never commented on Anne Widdicombe or her death before these accusations, and we do not wish physical harm on any individual. 



The same, however, cannot be said for Reform UK.
