Casual reminder that 99% of people who detransition: -Completely support gender affirming care -Take full responsibility for our actions Many, if not most, of us don't even identify as cis So please stop saying "detransitioners" when what you mean is "lying grifting cunts"

The lobby of parliament was once again packed yesterday. Burnham has chosen not to overrule the Supreme Court misjudgement, which he could do anytime. He either needs to own it as Labour policy or change the law. He needs to stop pretending. He is still the most transphobic Prime Minister ever.

The OP has turned off quote posts and comments. I don’t disagree about Labour here but without context it makes Reform and the Tories look good. Remember they only voted against the bill because it doesn’t strip enough away from the disabled. Not because they seek to protect us. Context matters.

The benefits cuts bill was voted through. Timms confirmed that the claim they'll remove the PIP part of the bill (i.e. the 4 points criteria), that they only said to win votes, may never happen. This bill doesn't just impact PIP, but also UC and ESA. This country has become utter garbage.

Labour's Rebecca Long Bailey says there are 'endless' alternative ways of raising money, such as wealth tax Rebecca Long-Bailey, who was runner up in the leadership contest won by Keir Starmer,
She says countries are judged by how they treat the most vulnerable.
4 We all know the famous quote, 'The true measure of any society can be found by how it treats its most vulnerable members.' It's a litmus test, really, for the morality and integrity of our country's values.
Sadly, in recent years, the United Nations has already twice reported on the conditions for disabled people in the UK, finding that there were grave and systematic violations of human rights, and sadly, the bill as it stands today will worsen this situation.
She says the welfare system needs reform.
But these proposals have not been subject to proper consultation, she says. And she says there are alternative ways of finding the money.
• The sad thing is, is that there are alternatives: introduce higher taxes on extreme wealth; end the stealth subsidies for banks; tax gambling fairly and properly. The list of alternatives is endless.

Our joint letter to the Council of Europe, asking them to urgently conduct a report into trans human rights in the UK. Sent alongside: @transactualuk.bsky.social @lgbtiscotland.bsky.social @scottishtrans.bsky.social @transsafety.network @networkgender.bsky.social
To the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights and the Sub-Committee on Human Rights,

The undersigned are organisations which advocate for the human rights of trans people in the United Kingdom. We are writing to express our grave concerns about the developing situation regarding trans people's human rights in this country and to ask the Committee to take action.

Following a decision of the UK Supreme Court in April, the Equality and Human Rights Commission - the UK's National Human Rights Institution - has issued an interim update which encourages and in some cases mandates the exclusion of trans people from single-sex spaces and services, in violation of their human rights. This has been followed by draft guidance which seeks to make such an approach statutory. The EHRC has made clear that it is not seeking input on its legal approach, only on how this approach is best communicated.

The draft guidance, if it were to become law, would impose an obligation on employers and service providers to implement a bathroom ban on trans people using toilet and changing facilities in line with their acquired sex, instead requiring in practice that they use only gender neutral facilities. Such gender neutral facilities are frequently unavailable, and mandating their usage may require trans people to out themselves. The guidance would also prohibit associations for women and lesbians operating on a basis which would allow trans women to participate, even if the association desires to do so. This would also be true for men's organisations wanting to include trans men.

This draft guidance is being consulted on in the wider context following For Women Scotland, in which government ministers and public bodies have made comments about trans people's rights. The UK Minister for Women and Equalities has stated that trans people are required to use the toilets associated with their sex as recorded at birth, even where their change in sex is recognised by a Gender Recognition Cer…In Christine Goodwin v UK, the European Court of Human Rights held that refusing to legally recognise the lived sex of trans people and placing them into an 'intermediate zone' where they are not quite one sex or the other was a violation of their right to respect for private life under Article 8 of the Convention. This protection was reaffirmed by the Court in the very recent decision of T.H. It is a core principle of the Convention that rights must be practical and effective, not theoretical and illusory.

We believe that in the UK, trans people are being returned to this 'intermediate zone', placing the State - once again - in violation of its positive obligations under the Convention. The legal recognition afforded by Gender Recognition Certificates is now illusory, and inapplicable to practical lived realities of trans people in this country.

We ask that the Council of Europe take immediate action to protect the human rights of trans people in the UK. We ask that you conduct a report into the state of trans human rights in the UK. We note that the situation is urgent and that without intervention, it seems likely to further deteriorate.

Kind regards,
