Just so it's clear where England stands right now. The lady in the photo below, retired vicar Sue Parfitt, who is 84 years old, is considered a terrorist and was arrested 6th July. The masked group in the photo below are not considered terrorists & were allowed to roam freely.

Sue is 84 years old and was seated peacefully at an anti-genocide Palestine Action protest. There's another protestor visible in the photo. There are also 4 police officers.

Making the same point as everyone else, because it needs to be made: the draconian anti-protest and free speech laws brought in by the last government and supported by the new one only EVER go one way. Profoundly authoritarian, handling fascists with kid gloves. New boss same as the old boss.

As NION Women, we care about being a society that leaves no one behind, where everyone can feel safe and fully participate. That includes trans+ people, who have been increasingly blamed for problems they didn't cause - and who have faced growing hostility for the best part of a decade.
We want to take a moment to acknowledge all the trans people, their families and allies who are currently wading through 300 pages of legal guidance to understand how it affects them and the people they love.
