@SexMattersOrg @HJoyceGender Well I have to say, it looked like you had a lot of supporters there! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Clearly transphobia ‘isn’t the vibe’ in Europe.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

@CooperativeBank Well claire, it came from a page in the app so I’m assuming so.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

@CooperativeBank 30min wait to speak to somebody. From past experience, you get cut off regularly after waiting for ages. I was ironically trying to complain. I got cut off from the website after writing it and lost it. So wrote a short complaint survey and clicked send.

@lukefinleyedit @BANGFACE @Butlins I genuinely hope this is properly resolved. @mightyhoopla also use @Butlins and our community will not let this go.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

@bbclaurak It’s not like you’ve been the least credible journalist in a position of power and authority for the past decade anyway.
For what it’s worth, I’m not buying the ‘mistake’ angle. Did someone on his team pose a leak risk?

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

@JessOThomson You’ve achieved SO much for our community working ‘from your bedroom with barely any money’. Paraphrasing you slightly! I am so glad you are on my team and have this opportunity. You will use the power it provides with responsibility, compassion and care. ♥️

Oh…btw…until Elom respects trans and non-binary peoples’ autonomy to decide their nomenclature including pronouns, I won’t respect hers! So no. Not x. Twitter. Don’t comment to say I’m being petulant and childish. I’m not.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

What does it look like when you put a whole bunch of @NEUnion trade union organisers, from Black, Disabled, LGBT+ and Women’s sectors together…in one space…in Manchester? Twitter, it looks like this.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

This is disgustingly awful and horrendous. What is more shocking is, what would the situation be if a celebrity didn’t turn up to vouch for him?

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

Word.

[Sam (he/him) @mushycrouton]

Like an onion, gender critical ideology is made up of layers. After you peel back the manipulative outer layers of “women’s rights” and “sport”, you will always arrive at the same three layers: misogyny, restricting healthcare and a questionable interest in children’s bodies.

@theRCN and the @TheBMA supporting trans people. It’s almost like transphobia is completely manufactured and amplified by right wing media and bigots.

[The RCN @theRCN]

Nobody should be attacked for being who they are.

Stand with us against transphobia and all forms of workplace discrimination by embracing our RCN Equity, Diversity & Inclusion strategy.

The @guardian need to wobble their own head if they believe this! I still massively miss my subscription. I still respect many of the journalists and staff (particularly in the international versions). But…no. No. And thrice no. They have lost all credibility.

[Declassified UK @declassifiedUK]

The Guardian says its "quality, investigative journalism is a scrutinising force at a time when the rich and powerful are getting away with more and more”.

So why has the Guardian hired Rishi Sunak's former spin doctor as its communications chief?

You could not make this up!!

[Gary Turner @SmilerTurner]

Today I was 'asked' to delete some posts by @FondOfBeetles , which I duly did at her request. I hereby apologise as it is clear that there are issues with one of my sources.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

@wesstreeting has zero excuses about not understanding the consequences of his decisions. He met with @TransActualCIC and other groups. Asking pharmacies to hand out suicide helpline info to trans kids IS NOT healthcare. It is evil.

[TransActualCIC @TransActualCIC]

Yesterday the Department of Health and Social Care confirmed that they have extended the temporary ban on the prescription and supply of puberty blockers, and that the ban now applies to Northern Ireland too.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

This is an important question. I will raise it with black and brown activists in @NEUnion and @TUCEquality

[African, Caribbean and Asian Lawyers For Justice @BameFor]

A 🧵Question: Why do the British labour and @TUCEquality movements almost exclusively fund @SWP or @hopenothate led anti racism?

Answer : These are white led anti racist movements. There is no interest or support on the left for independent Black and Asian led anti racism.

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

Yes @billybragg !
Trans liberation, is every bodies liberation.

[Billy Bragg @billybragg]

After the shameful way that anti-trans activists have attacked Imane Khelif ask yourself who ultimately benefits from their demand that women conform to traditional stereotypes of femininity?

[Kacey de Groot, NEU LGBT+ Executive Member @dee_exec]

“They were the worst of times,”
Actually, let’s leave any upside down/reverse quotations right there.
If you are trans…a woman…black…brown…there IS no follow up clause.

All hail the Magisterium!

[Assigned Media @assignedmedia]

As everyone knows, science is when an authority issues the 100 percent correct doctrinal line and everyone else in science agrees it is correct with no argument forever so there!
