Will you join us in fighting to protect trans workers? 1. Write to your MP about the workplace regs: actionnetwork.org/letters/fix-... 2. Let us know if your employer has changed their approach to trans inclusion: form.typeform.com/to/uycRij58

Is an example of some of the crap we have to go through to keep providing commercial, free, listener supported radio. How long is a time consuming, but it will cost us a lot of money in legal and accounting fees.

The way the Labour Government have behaved, just weeks after confiming their manifesto promise to improve things for trans people in the UK, is deeply shameful, with zero ethics, morality or backbone.
An AI image of a satirical vintage lady bird book, titled "Populism: Tyranny of the Majority". At the top, the text "A Ladybird book for misunderstanding democracy." Keir Starmer is standing on top of some injured older trans women, one holding a sign saying "trans rights are human rights". A young boy looks on, with a look of concern. In the background, the Houses of Parliament.

A patient having a doctor's appointment, whilst on in front of them a bodily organ sits in an armchair, pressing the TV remote with its oesophagus - click -click, through the channels on a telly in front of it. The doctor is talking angrily to the stomach, pointing at the telly and saying "Oi! I was watching that." And the patient is saying "Doctor. My stomach keeps turning over."

This is spot on. There's very little sense right now in this debate about the balancing of harms. There's the possibility of that balance altering with a change. But there's also clear harm now that isn't being reckoned with.
