The first #PrideInLondon was held in 1972, led by members of the Gay Liberation Front. The GLF even then had a 40 strong โ€˜Transvestite, Transexual, Drag Queenโ€™ group of activists, fighting for recognition and respect. Gay Pride has always included trans people. #LGBWithTheT

This is a real place. It's a village in the Netherlands called Bourtange (population: 430) built in and around an 18th century star fort. How and why does it exist? That's where things get interesting...

I was marching today, we got delayed. So what? They have a right to make their point. It was a nice day, we still marched; we made our point, they made theirs. No harm no foul.

โ€œAnd yet I look younger than you do, howโ€™d you like them apples?โ€
On receiving my amazon package, the driver asked me to confirm my name, and then my date of birth which I provided. His response, โ€œYouโ€™re older than my Mumโ€. ๐Ÿ˜’

Landed on time 25 mins ago. Stuck on the plane because Heathrow forgot to send crew to the gate to attach the skybridge. Lol.

Pilot just apologised for the โ€˜shenanigansโ€™ though which is amusing.

She is *so* tantalisingly close to figuring it outโ€ฆ
JK Rowlingโ€™s ever so close to understanding that the real issue here isnโ€™t trans people, but abusive cis men. Trans women & cis women both suffer at the hands of patriarchy. Forcing trans women into menโ€™s spaces solves nothing.

About 34 minutes in to this podcast I broke. Started crying. I got a window on a moment in politics where a Minister diminished a fellow member of parliament and in so doing, showed his contempt for all of the people who suffered during COVID. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcasโ€ฆ

If we had more people like Ken Clarke, even Michael Heseltine, a party of Rorys & Pennys who might have conservative politics but believe in a just society then maybe, maybe, there would be hope.

But all of them let this happen. Even โ€˜the good onesโ€™ were silent, and for too long. They became complicit. So. Fuck the Tories. They only care for their own enrichment. Not yours. Even if youโ€™re rich, they literally just want money. If you donโ€™t have it, theyโ€™ll forget you.

If by โ€˜establishmentโ€™ you mean the very establishment of which you are a beneficiary and member, and by โ€˜stitch-upโ€™ you mean yourself, thenโ€ฆ yes.

Who the absolute fuck flies their CHILDREN business class? You clearly have too much money. They arenโ€™t big enough to appreciate it or old enough to enjoy the perks. Itโ€™s a plane. Theyโ€™re not going anywhere. Chuck โ€˜em a few rows back and save a few thousand quid.
