Are you: - a trans woman or a non-binary person with a prostate? - aged 40+? - on oestrogen and/or post-op for bottom surgery? - based in the UK? The TransPRIDE study invites you to participate in research to inform better trans-inclusive prostate care! transpridestudy.org.uk

Recruitment poster with text that reads as follows. Trans or non-binary?
Join us in research led by and for trans people to improve our healthcare.

TransPRIDE (Trans & non-binary Prostate specific antigen Reference Interval
DEtermination) is a research study to help find the normal levels of the PSA blood test in trans women and non-binary people with prostates.
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a blood test that helps detect prostate
problems including cancer.

It is lowered by gender-affirming hormones and surgeries but we do not
know the expected normal levels for trans women and non-binary people.

Knowing the normal PSA blood test level will help doctors to find and treat prostate cancer more quickly in this population.

We are looking for 500 trans women and non-binary people aged 40+ who have been on feminising hormone therapy for at least 3 months, and/or had any kind of bottom surgery, to take part.

Participation involves a blood test for PSA and hormone levels, and short
questionnaires.

Blood test results will be returned, and participants are given a £25 gift
voucher for their time.

For more information visit: transpridestudy.org.uk
Or contact: bartsctu-transpride-study@qmul.ac.uk

the plainness with which this is put covers up a sort of powerless rage that you feel as a parent of a trans kid. it’s, to say the least, an alienating experience to see people bicker over the niceties of this or that pension policy when the party and the government has done this to your family

This Labour Government is the worst thing to have ever happened to trans children.
They have step by step dismantled every protection that supported my daughter. We have tried so hard to help her grow up with happiness and self-esteem through a childhood in an increasingly transphobic UK.
At every point when the Labour Government could have made something better, they have turned around and given her another kick.

The Supreme Court has responded to the complaint we have raised alongside @translucent.org.uk and @transparentaction.bsky.social and, as expected, they have failed to address the concerns we have raised...

"Dear Trans Advocacy & Complaints Collective, Transparent Action, and
TransLucent
Thank you for your complaint about the Court's new exhibition. I understand
your concern to be that the presentation of For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish
Ministers appears to be weighted towards the perspective of those who
campaigned for and celebrated the outcome, while giving insufficient
recognition to those who opposed it. You have confirmed that you are not
challenging the judgment itself or the inclusion of the case in the exhibition.
As Head of External Affairs and Communications, with responsibility for the
exhibition, I have been asked to respond to the matters you have raised. It may
be helpful first to explain the exhibition's purpose and approach.
The Law and Us features 70 appeals heard by the Supreme Court, the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council and the Appellate Committee of the House of
Lords, the predecessor to the Supreme Court. The cases cover a wide range of
legal issues and were selected to illustrate both the breadth of the Court's work
and the ways in which the law affects people's lives. The exhibition also explains
the creation of the Court, the development of law in the UK and the role of the
Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.
For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers is one of the 70 featured appeals.
As with the other case studies, it explains the background to the dispute, the"

"legal questions considered, the Justices' decision and a subsequent reflection
from a Justice or another person connected with the law. Images relating to the
appeal or its wider context were selected to help visitors understand the issues.
...You suggest that the headline, "When the law says 'woman', what does it mean?"
could imply that the Court went further than the judgment itself. The headline
refers expressly to the meaning of terms used in law. The question before the
Court concerned the meaning of "woman" and "sex" in a specific piece of
legislation. This is made clear in the case study under the paragraph heading
"The heart of the case". The display does not suggest that the Court provided a
general definition outside of the legislation it was considering.
Regarding your concerns about the images used - which you say "reflects the
perspective of those who celebrated the judgment" while largely ignoring those who
did not - the display features an image of the Scottish Government alongside that
of For Women Scotland, thus representing both parties in the appeal. This is
consistent with the approach taken across the exhibition. Their purpose is to
illustrate the case and its context, rather than to represent every individual or
organisation with an interest in the wider debate. The inclusion of any image
does not signify the Court's endorsement of any person or organisation
depicted. We did not visually represent the interveners; however, details of them
as well as the judgment, are available on the Court's website, along with the
recordings of the hearing and written_legalarguments.
Lady Rose's contribution is a personal reflection on the atmosphere in
Courtroom 1 when the judgment was handed down. It does not endorse a
particular position or present the outcome as a cause for celebration. The
exhibition also states that, when handing down the judgment, the Court
emphasised that trans people remain protected from discrimination under the
Equality Act 2010.."

"private room, and seats were not allocated according to the position an
individual supported in either case.
I have carefully considered the matters you have raised, examining the wording,
images, personal reflection and contextual material in the exhibition. I am
satisfied that the display accurately explains the issue before the Court, the
judgment and its legal context, and is consistent with the approach taken across
the exhibition. I am also satisfied that the arrangements for members of the
public who attended the judgment hand-down were professional, impartial and
transparent.
If you are dissatisfied with the handling or outcome of your complaint, you may
request a review within 14 days in accordance with the Administrative
Complaints Policy, details of which are available on the Court's website.
Yours sincerely
Bom Mema
Mr John McManus
Head of External Affairs & Communications

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.
