The new EHRC guidance breaks the Equality Act - Trans/non-binary and gender non-comforming people can be excluded from facilities and pushed out of daily life. It will be law in 40 days - without any manifesto commitments, or even a single vote unless our MPs demand one NOW. Join us in protest
Poster detailing upcoming protest against the new EHCR guidance. It reads:
"Protest Labour's Bathroom Ban. Say no to segregation of trans people. Sunday 31st of May 2026 1 PM to 3 PM. Bedford Square, Princesshay EX1 1GJ. Hosted by Trans Pride Exeter www.TPEX.uk."

The body of the poster is a drawing of protest placards in pastel colours with various phrases including "30 year waiting waiting lists", "spat on", "outed" "banned from toilets", "denied healthcare", "denied homes", "denied equal access", "denied employment", and "Segregated". Other placards show a circle with a cross through

The image is a three-panel comic depicting a newborn chick's fate in the egg industry. In the first panel, a cheerful yellow chick introduces themselves, excited to be born. In the second panel, the chick looks forward to meeting their mother and siblings. The final panel shifts to a grim scene where the same chick is helplessly placed on a conveyor belt, heading towards a grinder.
