Fighting for trans liberation

[Trans Liberation Group @translibgroup]

We are the Trans Liberation Group and we are fighting for a foundation of trans liberation in Your Party, in its current and future iterations.

Trans people and allies are mobilising against the new EHRC guidance. Here are some campaigns you can get involved with. Get in touch if we missed any!

[Nadia Whittome MP @NadiaWhittomeMP]

Alongside colleagues, I have tabled a motion to disapprove the Equality Act 2010: Draft Code of Practice for Services, public functions and associations. We cannot support it, and we have a responsibility to our trans constituents to resist it.

This motion is currently the only available mechanism through which Parliament can reject the EHRC’s Code of Practice; if it is debated and passed within the 40-day scrutiny window, it would prevent the Code from being issued by the EHRC and coming into force.

Please email your MP asking them to sign EDM 240. 

The Code will exclude trans people from services and facilities that they have long used without issue, putting them at increased risk of harassment and violence, and effectively pushing them out of public life. 

It ushers in an era of enforced segregation for trans people, the policing of which will be outsourced to service providers, including businesses, charities and public bodies. 

In the statement to the House of Commons yesterday, the Minister even suggested that where members of the public are unsure of someone’s gender within a single-sex facility, “most people will have the common sense to step in where necessary or, if they are concerned, to alert a member of staff.”

Meanwhile, this guidance does not give clarity and confidence to organisations that want to be trans-inclusive. Its impact also extends beyond the rights of trans people. The government’s own Equality Impact Assessment warns that “women who are considered masculine may face greater scrutiny” and that disabled people could face adverse impacts.

The Code represents a profound rollback of rights, which will affect trans people directly and erode the principles of inclusion, dignity and equality upon which all our rights depend.

This guidance must not become statutory; the government should withdraw it and instead legislate to clarify and protect trans people’s rights, privacy and inclusion.

The TLG's statement on Your Party:

[Candi @candi4changeSW]

An honour! I can’t speak more highly of Trans Liberation Group.

They’re an exceptional example of not just talking about solidarity but building it.

I’m a proud member and I back their demands fully. I’ll be fighting with them for trans liberation every step of the way.

[Trans Liberation Group @translibgroup]

TLG recommends voting Lizzie Bailey for Wales CEC.
@Lizzie4CEC

[Trans Liberation Group @translibgroup]

Voting is now open! We need a CEC that puts the grassroots first and is truly committed to member democracy. That's why we are calling for members to vote for the Grassroots Left Slate. @Grassroots_Left

[Grassroots Left @Grassroots_Left]

None of us left the Labour Party to create another one.

Say no to Labour 2.0.

VOTE Grassroots Left to get a democratic, pluralist, socialist party ✊🚩

[Trans Liberation Group @translibgroup]

We are appalled by the unreasonable barring of Ian Spencer from running for CEC.

We call for Ian Spencer's candidacy to be reinstated immediately and urge members to support the Grassroots Left slate to elect a CEC that prioritises member democracy.

[Grassroots Left @Grassroots_Left]

These witch hunts have to stop. It’s your data, your money, Your Party.

@ThisIsYourParty must reinstate Ian Spencer's candidacy without delay.
