The Supreme Court sided with FWS.
But it didnโt hear from a single trans person.

We won't stop fighting for trans rights ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
Beautiful day for a tour of the Lyde Green Secondary School ๐ซ
Lovely morning at Grimsbury Farm with Cllr. Sean Rhodes.

Yet some politicians act like sycophants & his unhinged outbursts dominate news, while our democracy is serially undermined.
We must break the super-richโs grip on our media & politics.
Funny how all the men outraged about grooming gangs are silent about Dominique Pelicot, Conor McGregor, Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, Prince Andrew or Johnny Depp. Almost as if theyโre just co-opting the rape and abuse of women to be racist isnโt it?
Yeah, itโs exactly that.
South Glos full council meeting under way tonight.
