Britain Has Abandoned Trans People, Immigrants, and Muslims

YouTube

The #Starmer govt's plan to exclude #trans people from public spaces in the #UK is a Code Of Practice drafted by #EHRC, the UK's transphobic #EqualtiesCommission.

The CoP is implemented as a #StatutoryInstrument (SI) "made negative". So it becomes law without debate or vote, unless stopped by a near-impossible procedure. The Lords last blocked a made-negative SI in 2000; the Commons in 1979.

The #HansardSociety explains the procedure: https://www.hansardsociety.org.uk/blog/living-on-a-prayer-motion-how-do-parliamentarians-debate-made-negative

Statutory Instrument debate data in Parliament suggest value of delegated legislation procedural reform

A recent House of Lords debate on a ‘made negative’ Statutory Instrument highlights Peers’ greater appetite and ability to secure such debates compared to MPs. Data on debate lengths suggests parliamentarians are more likely to give more meaningful scrutiny to SIs they wish to debate than those on which they are obliged to spend time by current procedures.

:boosts_ok}: just in case anyone thinks transphobia in the US isn't all that bad and that it's a "lesser" or "minor" form of bigotry compared to others, here's your reminder that I can get arrested for going to a public bathroom because I'm trans  

also, "I didn't know she was trans and was surprised when I found out" is a legal reason to murder me and my siblings  

meanwhile, we're falsely equated with a group even prison inmates universally detest  

oh, and it's ok for leading candidates for the Dem party to be explicitly transphobic  

p.s. no, changing the laws isn't easy for us, we either have 0 or 1 trans representative at the federal level despite being at least 3% of the population  

p.p.s. when I say "just in case anyone thinks", what I mean is too many of you do, implicitly or explicitly, and act on that belief (I would love for that not to be the case, but reality is reality and me lying about it would serve nobody except the oppressors)

What the fuck is up with EWU lately covering and focusing only stories that involves murders by trans people? Why has that whole channel become a Terfhood? I mean, shouldn't be watching murder cases anyway but what the fuck?

I swear they were normal before, where sometimes people simply were trans and the EWU person just used correct pronouns and names. Now he explicitly uses wrong pronouns and deadnames. What the fuck happened to them??

I want to be able to FULLY BLOCK all shit channels on Youtube tied to my account instead of a browser.

Evan Urguhart: "In Seattle, organizers are warning of a growing crisis as more and more trans refugees seek to escape red states.

Mutual aid networks of "broke trans people helping broke trans people" are being overwhelmed, and one organizer I spoke with is facing eviction herself."

It's been doing the rounds elsewhere and shared by others, but I thought I'd also link to it here myself because it really is a very clear and engaging summary of what the UK is like for trans folk today, how it happened, and why it's so awful for us all. If you were looking for one recent, useful, overview, this is it:

The End of Trans Rights in the UK Is the Start of Democratic Collapse

“Pharmacy openly rejects women & trans people, yet nobody does anything”

As should be fully expected. We do not have any functioning systems for accountability in The Netherlands. So while we are progressive on paper, there is zero enforcement.

Penalties for discrimination in The Netherlands amount to: Zero, Null, Niks, None, Nada & Nope.

What you'll get instead is whataboutism and well it didn't happen to me, so it must be you” with a few "there is no such thing as discrimination here" and “well if you don't like it, go back to your own country” (all verbatim quotes btw.)

Opinie: Een apotheek stuurt vrouwen en trans personen weg, maar niemand grijpt in

In Nederland staan we discriminatie door een apotheker blijkbaar toe als het vanuit een geloofsovertuiging komt. Twintig jaar geleden was dit nog ondenkbaar.

@fluffykontbiscuits Darn, #Labour and the #IHRC mised the anniversary!

Still, they'll enact their bathroom ban in Pride month, just as the previous Tory government did with so many of their anti-trans measures.
