A fresh set of fake Barbie-themed anti-Tory ads has been seen across London, this time taking aim at Tory MPs Kemi Badenoch, Dominic Raab and Liz Truss, among others, and all with the tagline: “This Barbie is a c**t” 🧵 (1/5)
EXCLUSIVE: The BBC has advised its news employees to avoid attending any Pride events that might be considered a protest, in a bid to maintain ‘impartiality’ on LGBTQ+ issues, in updated guidelines shared with staff 🧵 (1/9)
Irony of this bullshit cartoon is that we as LGBTQ+ kids grew up having nothing but heterosexuality shoved down our throats in sex ed classes in school, with teachers fired if they even acknowledged our existence.
We're finally being mentioned & included, that's all.
Can we just take a moment to bathe in the fact that a trans woman was #1 in the UK and is still in the top 10?! Time to smash the general publics perception of trans people 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Kemi Badenoch could have used her first appearance as Women & Equalities Minister to ban conversion therapy, demand better trans healthcare and condemn the rise in LGBT+ hate crimes.
Instead, she attacked the CEO of @PinkNews.
The entire LGBT+ community have my full support.
Haven't had to phone 999 often in my life. Wasn't really expecting the call to end with "We've established you do need an ambulance. The current wait time is seven hours." If anyone has capacity to hate Tories more than they're currently doing, please feel free to on my behalf.
