It was an absolute joy to be at the opening of the Cowal Community Hub today! A space and project like this is hugely needed in Dunoon, I we can’t wait to see what’s coming next 🎉

Take a look at the picture on the left. It’s of Rob & Patrick who were violently attacked by men shouting homophobic abuse in Birmingham’s gay village. Now take a look at the picture on the right. Do you know these men? The Police want to talk to them. Do the right thing.

#Bute based businesses, would you like to sponsor our group for #ButePride? We're looking for local shops, cafes, etc to pop 1 of our stickers in their window. This will show visitors to #ButePride that you're an #LGBT+ friendly establishment. We're expecting lots of visitors 1/2

When Manchester Pride have a turnover of £3.9 million and pay their CEO over £90K, they can afford to support vital sexual health and HIV support services. Pride is about community, not lining corporate pockets. Something is seriously wrong if you cut services for the vulnerable.

So first the anti-trans mob were saying that just *being* trans was homophobic. Now they’re saying just *being* gay is misogynistic. What next?
