screenshot of post from Shetland Pride on facebook:
“We at Shetland Pride are deeply concerned by the recent Supreme Court ruling and the impact it will have on the rights of trans people across the U.K.  

Let us be clear: our trans community is valued, respected and supported here in Shetland. Pride is not just a celebration, it is a protest, and it is a commitment to equality, inclusion, and justice for all members of the LGBTQ+ community, especially those most vulnerable to discrimination and harm. 

We stand with our trans siblings in Shetland, and beyond. We want to state our unwavering support for their rights to live authentically, safely, and with pride. 

Now more than ever we must raise our voices, support one another, and work together. Trans rights are human rights, always.
