@northernassist Hi there, I've been logged out of the Northern app and it won't allow me to log back in so I can't access my season ticket. Thankfully the barrier staff at Victoria were understanding, but where can I report an issue with the app?

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.

The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

Actually, Frankenstein was the doctor. The monster was whoever credited Mary Shelley under her husband’s name in the original movie.

@will_owen9 Very excited to see this alongside the Scotland v Fiji game on, excited/hoping for a big response from Wales to make that an interesting game (before watching Scotland stresses me out as it always does)

@DoodleDharma You mean the genAI systems that are regularly completely wrong about basic facts, that are incredibly environmentally damaging, and a tool of environmental racism?

@northernassist Are trains running from Daisy Hill to Manchester?

[Will Owen @will_owen9]

Thoroughly disgusted to see Rufus McLean back in an international rugby team.

Needless to say - Glasgow Warriors couldn’t have handled his situation better. Shame on Scott Lawrence for stooping so low.

We must rebuild consensus on trans rights.

There was a time (2017) when a Conservative PM committed to reforming the Gender Recognition Act and making the process of self certification better.

These plans were dropped and it remains a protracted, complex and intrusive process.

Polling stations are open.
You can head out NOW and elect Greens for your local area!

A statement by the Young Greens Executive Committee on comments made by Adrian Ramsay MP on the recent Supreme Court ruling.

We will always stand with the trans community and call out transphobia wherever it appears.

Solidarity ✊🏳️‍⚧️

@callumclafferty @Ludy01Lulu @AdrianRamsay Grateful for you both speaking out so strongly 💚

[Matt Rogan @MattRxgan]

Whilst I'm so grateful for @carla_denyer and @ZackPolanski's unwavering solidarity with trans folks, the following needs to be said.

@AdrianRamsay - it's been two days and you've said nothing. Silence is complicity. Step up and stand with us, or lose our confidence for good.
