Not only does Billy Bragg support trans lives, he used my βBe A Trans Allyβ gif π³οΈββ§οΈπ #BraggingRights #trans
Always a bit of a concern to wake up to find yourself trending but I have been the recipient of so much love and support from the trans community and trans allies around the world today. Thank you for your solidarity on the issue of trans rights xitter.cf/flowepower66/status/14β¦

Over the last five years there has been an organised and concerted campaign mobilised against the trans community. My speech on Pride in 2021. π³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈ
.@royalacademy hate speech is not the same as free speech. I suggest you take down your lgbTqi+ profile pic. Oh, I guess you will be in 6 days as anyway, let me guess it's only up for June.....

The first same sex kidd I ever saw was between two characters in βBuffy The Vampire Slayerβ. I must have been 6. I was scandalized. Homophobia had already seeped into my baby brain.

My friend Genie has said I could be βNanafredβ to her kids when she has them. Which works out great because we can bake and do crafts and stuff, but then I can give the kids back. See more on the ARTICLE 16 blog: bit.ly/2SqOu65

Well done to all the artists successful in recent @ace_southwest funding applications π
We can't wait to see more of Arches Resident Asten Holmes-Elliott project ARTICLE 16, who will use the funding to project films made by local LGBTQ+ families onto streets around Southampton

I remember the first out queer person I knew, a friend of my nanβs called Verity. I thought she was great, and she always had the coolest trousers.
