Progress.
From 2018 to now after follow a solid plan for almost a year.
Iβm so proud of how far Iβve come and canβt wait to see how much further I can go.
Anyone can say what they want. But what you say has consequences.
Beliefs are protected. If they manifested those βgender criticalβ beliefs in a way that discriminates against trans people, that is not protected.
Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".
Racism, transphobia and homophobia are not protected characteristics; nor should expressing such views be free from consequences
If your βbeliefβ relies on denying someone elseβs humanity, itβs not a right; itβs a prejudice.

M&S have responded to our letter regarding the complaint about a supposedly trans employee.
Yet more evidence that anti-trans obsessives lied about the incident to stoke hostility towards trans people.
We all have a duty to tackle such mis(dis)information to protect our community.
What a fabulous night
Thanks! Thatβs the email address I used too.
Excellent letter here. Please read it.
Our letter to Marks and Spencer is now live.
Please share to show your support for all trans & gender non-conforming employees. We will not bow to pressure from anti-trans obsessives & lobby groups. Trans people pose no inherent risk to anyone and deserve basic dignity & respect in the workplace.
Marks and Spencer must protect staff facing transphobic abuse, not apologise for them. Inclusion means safety & respect. Read our letter urging action to defend employee dignity & safety

Thanks!
Hi Rachel
Weβre looking to write to M&S about this. May I ask who you sent your correspondence to.
If anything, this manufactured M&S trans panic lays bare the absurdity & cruelty of anti-trans obsessives. Spreading wilful misinformation about a non-incident to criminalise an innocent worker simply for appearing to be trans is both disgraceful and dangerous.
Thanks, John!
If anyone has any contacts at Marks & Spencer to whom we can send our letter, please get in touch.
Hey yβall.
Weβre wanting to write to Marks & Spencer about this trans shop assistant moral panic.
Does anyone have any contacts at M&S head office?
Rumour has it, if you open a packet of Percy Pigs, JK Rowling appears, calls you a predator and arrests you.
JK Rowling threatened to sue a 20-something twitter user with 200 followers for comparing her ideology to the Taliban. (I've seen the threatening letter her US lawyers sent myself. It's what caused me to throw out my HP books).

A great statement, we need to put pressure on Stonewall, LGBT Foundation and others to follow this lead. They will not do so unless they are pushed. Emails time!
The EHRCβs appointment of Dr. Mary-Ann Stevenson, a figure with known anti-trans views, makes clear it no longer serves all people. Equality Amplified no longer recognises the EHRC as a human rights body.
Read our full statement here: www.equalityamplified.org.uk/blog/stateme...
π¨ Weβre disgusted, but not surprised. Labour has now fully sided with anti-trans voices. Bridget Phillipson just appointed gender-critical Dr Mary-Ann Stevenson as EHRC chair ignoring both human rights committees. The UK isnβt safe, itβs time to take this fight to the governments door!
The way anti-trans obsessives speak about trans people is disgusting, & itβs deeply troubling how this hateful rhetoric goes unchallenged.
They dehumanise, demonise, & deliberately spread lies to advance an agenda rooted in harm.
We need more influential allies to speak out-now.
Itβs not about trans inclusion in sport.
Thatβs a separate, albeit linked, issue.
There will be people confusing that to make transphobic or political points today.
Donβt fall for the propaganda.
