The best attended Notts Pride ever this year, the march took almost two hours to reach the end, usually its less than half that, so who knows how many were in attendance. Amazing crowd response for my opening Pride speech too,

Here is the most factual demonstration of a moral panic, I have seen. The vast majority of these articles are anti-trans & contain false information, misinformation or false conspiracies. It should concern the British public that the media want trans ppl erased. It’s inhuman & cruel.

A useful list of what's on in the next few months at Koko Camden. If you are able to contact any of these performers to ask them (extremely politely) to reconsider their gigs, please do. I'm sure many will be both sympathetic & unwilling to be associated with a venue that behaves as it has done.

Seeing a lot of people very worried about a proposed amendment to the Data Bill. In short, such amendments very rarely succeed without Government support - which this one doesn't have. It may still however create some nasty debate if selected. But if you're worried, you can write to your MP.

As I read people defending groups like Sex Matters on the basis of their carefully worded anti-trans commentary, I can't help but think back to the heyday of the BNP which used careful words in print, issued official condemnations of overt racism and even had some black members. It was still racist.

Reform. This betrayal of Scotland's LGBT+ community inflicts hurt on some of our most vulnerable in society. Rather than stand alongside us, Scottish Labour have amplified a national and international onslaught against those who seek nothing more than recognition and equality.
Our Labour movement is built on respect, tolerance and solidarity for those in struggle. The Labour leadership would do well to embody those principles."

It reads "📰 This is one of the best articles we have ever published on What's Brewing. 🍺 Check out Laura Hadland's incredibly important and hard-hitting article following a collaborative brew day at Tom's Tap and Brewhouse Ltd with Ladies of Darkness." Then there is a quote post of where I shared the article on my own Facebook page.
