@philipcbaldwin Many congratulations. So glad you have been reelected

[Philip Baldwin @philipcbaldwin]

Pleased to be re-elected to the Church of England’s #GeneralSynod representing the Diocese of London. As a gay man, living with HIV, I will advocate for everyone, including LGBTQIA+ people, asylum claimants, the homeless and all people living with #HIV.

Thinking of, sending love and standing in solidarity with the family and friends of the people killed and injured, as well as LGBTQIA+ people and their allies, at Berlin Pride. In this increasingly divisive time, we can work together and will defeat hate.

Excited to be marching with @THTorguk at @PrideInLondon today! #PrideInLondon

Today marks 44 years since Terry Higgins passed away - the first person to be named as dying from an AIDS-related illness in the UK. His legacy is @THTorguk. I am living with HIV, and owe so much to this amazing charity and their team. #HIV

BREAKING NEWS - A DRAFT BILL ON CONVERSION PRACTICES IS NOW A REALITY.

I'm in tears with joy - here is my response to this wonderful news. Still concerned about prayer being covered properly, the devil will be in the detail. Statement below

[Philip Baldwin @philipcbaldwin]

Today marks 10 years since the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida. 49 people were killed and 53 injured. Our thoughts are with their family and friends. LGBTQIA+ people face prejudice, but I believe we can replace discrimination with dignity and respect. #PulseNightClub

While the UK was ranked first in 2015, today we have been ranked twenty-second on LGBTQIA+ rights in Europe for a second year running, in ILGA-Europe’s annual Rainbow Map. The UK scored only 43.9 per cent, with trans rights and a failure to #banconversionpractices major factors.

Today marks 27 years since the Admiral Duncan Nail Bombing. Three people died and 79 were injured. Hate crimes against LGBTQIA+ people are increasing dramatically. We stand in solidarity and remembrance, for those lost on the day and in similar attacks globally. #AdmiralDuncan

I once thought politics wasn’t for me. Now, I’m proud to represent my constituents and @TheGreenParty in parliament. I told @gaytimes @philipcbaldwin about coming out, my journey into politics and how we can make the world a better place 🏳️‍🌈🌍

@philipcbaldwin Thank you for being such an amazing advocate for people living with HIV and supporter of @THTorguk

[Philip Baldwin @philipcbaldwin]

Today, 16 years ago, I was diagnosed with #HIV. I was 24. Medical approaches to HIV have changed. And so has my life. I am no longer a terrified patient, but an outspoken activist. I am on effective treatment, can expect a normal lifespan and can’t pass it on. HIV has changed.

[Peter Tatchell @PeterTatchell]

⚠️ Senegalese authorities have detained 15 people simply for being in an LGBT+ WhatsApp group. SHAME!

This kind of forced outing & criminalisation fuels fear & legitimises homophobic discrimination & violence. SHAME!

Massive kick to be interviewed by the @NewStatesman on the Australian social media ban, and the various ways in which the UK coalition is arguing for something rather different.

It’s #WorldAIDSDay & the final day of our #5DaysOfAction.
