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.

However much you hate British media, it is not enough www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...

How having a disability became cool
Young women, nicknamed ‘sickfluencers’, are turning chronic illness into a lifestyle trend and entrenching a culture of economic inactivity

Young women are also more likely to get caught up in “social contagion” – the spontaneous spread of behaviours or emotions previously observed by sociologists in “outbreaks” of bulimia, self-harm and transgender ideology. What may have otherwise been transitory feelings are seized upon and obsessed over until they form a central pillar of a person’s identity. A chronic-illness influencer won’t want to get “better” any more than a female-bodied transgender person would want to re-identify with their sex.

Out for Independence @outforindy.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

Thank you to @neilmackay.bsky.social for this very good piece. There is a resolution on this topic, backed by Out for Indy, on the provisional agenda for the SNP National Conference in October, and we hope members will support it.

21. ABORTION LAW REFORM
Conference recognises and affirms the rights to safe and timely abortion care.

Conference reaffirms its support for its positions adopted at annual national conference in
2024 that the right to abortion should be enshrined in the constitution of an independent
Scotland and in 2023 that access must be equitable across Scotland with services available
up to the legal limit of 24 weeks.

Conference recognises the work of the Abortion Law Reform Expert Group, initiated by the
SNP Scottish Government in 2024, in developing proposals for reforming Scotland's
outdated abortion laws.

Conference notes with concern that at present, Scotland is the only part of the UK that has
not modernised its abortion laws to remove legal penalties from women under the 1967
Abortion Act and that, as a result, Scotland is not meeting international health and human
rights standards for access to health care.

Conference notes that women in Scotland have faced police investigation for suspected
abortions after experiencing miscarriage due to these outdated laws, adding to the trauma of pregnancy loss.

Conference therefore resolves that Scotland's abortion law should be reformed to:
1. Follow the recommendations of the Expert Group;
2. Remove criminal penalties from women who terminate their pregnancies; and
3. Create a health-based framework for abortion care rooted in human rights and equality of
access, not criminal law.

🏛️ Nearly every Plaid Cymru backbencher has demanded answers from the NHS on trans surgeries. In a joint letter, they asked what evidence, risk assessments, and consultations the NWJCC took in its decision. It's time for answers from NHS Wales.

1 September 2026
Dear Mr Green,
RE: Pausing of gender-affirming surgeries by the NHS Wales Joint Commissioning
Committee
We are writing to express our profound disappointment at the abrupt pausing of planned operations within the Welsh Gender Service. The sudden nature of this decision by the NHS Wales Joint Commissioning Committee has left patients, many of whom have been preparing for surgery for months or years, without the care they were expecting and relying upon.
The impact on individuals and the wider trans community in Wales has been significant.
Understandably, this development has caused distress, fear, and a deep sense of uncertainty.
This comes at a time when the rights and dignity of trans people across the UK are increasingly under pressure. You will know that gender-affirming healthcare in Wales is clinician-led, patient-focused, and carefully paced; it is not rushed, nor undertaken lightly.
In light of this, we would like to raise the following urgent questions on behalf of our constituents and the wider community:
• Why has surgery been halted for a form of treatment that has among the highest levels of psychiatric screening and one of the lowest regret rates of any procedure offered by the NHS?
• What specifically is the cause for concern?
• What evidence informed this decision?
• Why were patient stakeholders not consulted before the decision was taken?
• Was any risk assessment carried out regarding the impact of cancelling treatment at such short notice? If not, why?
• What role, if any, did NHS England play in influencing or directing this decision?
• What is the scope of any review now underway, and when can we expect its conclusions?

Senedd Cymru
Welsh Parliament
Plaid Cymru
• When can patients expect surgeries to recommence?
• What safeguards are in place to protect patients' mental health during this pause?
• What commitment can be given to the continuation of therapies and hormone treatment during this period?
Patients deserve clarity, reassurance and a clear pathway forward. We would be grateful for a detailed response addressing each of the above points, together with confirmation of how the Welsh Gender Service intends to support those affected during this period of uncertainty.
This letter is also being copied to Suzanne Rankin and Kirsty Williams, Chief Executive and Chair of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, given the board's role in administering the Welsh Gender Service.
We look forward to your reply.

Out for Indy's response to this week's Programme for Government. 🚨🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Out for Independence response to the Programme for Government:

e are disappointed with the Programme for Government’s lack of commitment to pushing ahead with a Scottish ban on conversion practices.

While we acknowledge the Scottish Government is engaging with the UK Government in good faith and has left the option for a Scottish bill open should they fail to deliver, the fact is the Labour Party has already proven itself untrustworthy when it comes to LGBTQIA+ rights. Their proposals are simply totally inadequate and will allow this abuse to continue.

We will keep pushing for a Scottish bill that will genuinely end conversion practices, to ensure the work of survivors and activists will not have been in vain.
