Leicester is one of the poorest cities in the country with on average 1 in 3 children living in poverty.
Football is meant to be a working class sport.
The unjustifiable rise in ticket prices during a cost of living crisis is disgusting from the club and it is inexcusable.

@rosie_wrighting as my MP, will you sign this?

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

Alongside colleagues, I have tabled a motion to disapprove the Equality Act 2010: Draft Code of Practice for Services, public functions and associations. We cannot support it, and we have a responsibility to our trans constituents to resist it.

This motion is currently the only available mechanism through which Parliament can reject the EHRC’s Code of Practice; if it is debated and passed within the 40-day scrutiny window, it would prevent the Code from being issued by the EHRC and coming into force.

Please email your MP asking them to sign EDM 240. 

The Code will exclude trans people from services and facilities that they have long used without issue, putting them at increased risk of harassment and violence, and effectively pushing them out of public life. 

It ushers in an era of enforced segregation for trans people, the policing of which will be outsourced to service providers, including businesses, charities and public bodies. 

In the statement to the House of Commons yesterday, the Minister even suggested that where members of the public are unsure of someone’s gender within a single-sex facility, “most people will have the common sense to step in where necessary or, if they are concerned, to alert a member of staff.”

Meanwhile, this guidance does not give clarity and confidence to organisations that want to be trans-inclusive. Its impact also extends beyond the rights of trans people. The government’s own Equality Impact Assessment warns that “women who are considered masculine may face greater scrutiny” and that disabled people could face adverse impacts.

The Code represents a profound rollback of rights, which will affect trans people directly and erode the principles of inclusion, dignity and equality upon which all our rights depend.

This guidance must not become statutory; the government should withdraw it and instead legislate to clarify and protect trans people’s rights, privacy and inclusion.

@Abouterf197543 @BarbicanCentre Get a life, weirdo!

[Austin @LCAustin_]

@bargaincryptid Clearly not, since you want to make others’ lives miserable you ghoul

[Austin @LCAustin_]

@bargaincryptid No im bang on the money. Get a fucking life

[Austin @LCAustin_]

@UnionJacked__ I don’t think you’re right about this. Both TERFs and the far right would take policing this in to their own hands, which is gonna lead to many more incidents where trans people are threatened or feel threatened

[Austin @LCAustin_]

@bargaincryptid you live a very sad life, nobody will miss you!

[Austin @LCAustin_]

@virrals Stay safe out there. It’s such a disgrace that the screaming minority are the ones dictating policy and creating a hostile environment. Hoping for a better future, cause right now it’s shit and im so sorry you had to do this 🫶
