For decades, we couldn’t trace the link between new fossil fuel projects and their damage to people and planet. But now we can.

We can finally measure the damage each new coal, gas or oil project will do to people and nature

I grew up playing crib with my grandad who fought in WW2 and had a navy career. The playing cards were RNLI cards. I never thought there would be a movement on the right would would portray my grandad as an undesirable part of British culture.

I have asked the Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission to come to Brighton, and today Brighton came to me with so many stories of how the EHRC Code of Practice is impacting them. Trans lives are already being harmed, and the EHRC needs to hear this.

Image is of Siân with three staff members from Refuge UK. They are stood smiling in Westminster Hall in the Houses of Parliament. A crowd of people is visible in the background participating in the mass lobby for trans equality.

Image is of Siân holding a notebook and pen. She is stood in front of desks, staffed by people in high-vis jackets. A placard is resting against a table and reads: Trans people deserve real equality.

Also given there have been queer artists who have spent nights away from their homes because of the far right saying being queer poses a risk to children, it is very much a case of HMOs now, who next.

When I was younger I volunteered at an organisation where asylum seekers also volunteered. I was openly queer then too and never felt unsafe there. I have a piece of art on my wall from a kurdish guy who exhibited his work in the building. Mobs forcing people out of their homes is far scarier.
