@wesstreeting Except when it's trans rights, then it puts its fingers in its ears when the experts don't agree with you

Merry Trans Pride from this genderqueer Muslim to anyone trans, non-binary, gender diverse or gender questioning. Wherever you are, wherever you may be celebrating, you are loved 🏳️⚧️

#TransPride was fabulous.
Don't listen to the GCs, they're not winning when tens of thousands of people are marching for trans rights. The outpouring of love and support for trans people was overwhelming.

@theresaverity@Keir_Starmer@wesstreeting The fact that many of the LGBTQ+ MPs in Labour kept quiet about Streeting's proposals tells me everything I need to know about this Labour Govt and Party.
@theresaverity@Keir_Starmer@wesstreeting Starmer is using trans people as a way to score political points, Wes Streeting is an opportunist who turned his back on his own community (LGBTQ+) in order to be promoted. They'll only care when these issues affect them personally.
Hello @Keir_Starmer, @wesstreeting. I invite you to talk to the trans people who have direct experience of GnRH Agonist treatment in adolescence. We have been excluded from the discussion about our own lives, which has allowed fearmongering and misinformation to thrive.
@NadiaWhittomeMP The planet's burning, the NHS is underfunded and near breaking point, public transport is expensive & poorly run, there will be people who have to choose between heating and eating in the winter, but Starmer is like let's pick on trans people instead of solving the REAL problems.
@NadiaWhittomeMP Because one day this WILL come back to bite Starmer and Labour in the arse one day. Starmer is happy to traumatise trans people in order to appease the hardcore minority of TERFs/GCs in the UK, but won't actually do the dirty work himself and passing the buck to Streeting.
One thing you have to understand about high-profile, well-heeled campaigning transphobes is that, for them, this is a tedious dinner party argument that got out of hand - ergo, their constant talk about "winning" - whereas for trans people, it's their lives, their survival.
Me: So you remember I told you I'm transgender?
13-yo brother: Yeah, they/them, right?
Me: Actually I'm using she/her pronouns now.
13-yo: Oh, she/her? Ok.
THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO GO 😭
Dear Ms Freeman. Queer people have been facing attempts to legislate them out of existence for centuries but are still here. So no we won't accept we've "lost" because you got overexcited about the Cass report. https://t.co/VXkR302iAd
Let’s make a new rule. Anybody who is over 75 years old shouldn’t be running for president.
Anybody who is convicted of a felony shouldn’t be running for president.
Anybody found liable for fraud or sexual assault should not be running for president.
Does this sound fair?
