🌍 80 years after its founding, the UN was meant to end war & defend human rights. Today, those ideals are under siege.

From Gaza to Ukraine, from Congo to Sudan & Myanmar, the principles that built a postwar world order are being shredded in real time.

Stand in solidarity with Hungarian LGBTs, show Hungarian regime that world is watching & press EU to sanction Hungary over its criminalisation of Pride & wider repression of LGBT+ people

London Overground’s Windrush line commemorates the contribution of the Windrush generation to rebuilding our great city after the Second World War.

For Windrush Day, we look back at the importance of the moment it was renamed for Londoners connected to Windrush.

This is an award for EVERY trans person in Britain. Honestly, the 500+ people attending last night ALL recognise how serious things are - every speaker mentioned it without exception. The love for trans is absolutely there in the LGBT family + allies ❤️ #StrongerTogether #BritishLGBTAwards
