We’ve submitted a formal complaint to the Charity Commission about Sex Matters, raising concerns about its conduct, campaigning and the potential harm caused to trans people. Our full evidence is attached so you can see exactly what we’ve put to the regulator.
Ofcom’s new BBC Online Material Code could make BBC online content more accountable. Our consultation response looks at what this means for trans people, from accuracy and harmful coverage to complaints, corrections and safeguarding. Read our article and response.
We (Trans Advocacy and Complaints Collective), Translucent, Trans Safety Network, and Trans Exile Network have written to Amnesty International UK over the withdrawal of its reports on the UK’s anti-rights movement and its subsequent apology to gender-critical organisations.
The EHRC meets with organisations hostile to trans people and our rights. But would it meet with people opposed to homosexuality, race-realists, or organisations wanting to remove women’s bodily autonomy?
If not, why are trans people the exception? These are the questions we have asked the EHRC!
>“This is our shared vision: a future where no one is left behind. Feminism wins when we choose transfeminist solidarity.”

The suffragette colours belong to feminism, not exclusion.

I’ve written about how feminist iconography is being appropriated to legitimise trans-exclusionary politics, why that matters, and why we need to reclaim the symbols of intersectional feminism.
This article asks a simple question: what makes an anti-rights movement? Looking at history, human rights law, case law and evidence, it explores whether today's anti-trans campaigns follow the same patterns seen in past attacks on minority rights. And how they affect everyone's rights.
We have written to all MP's expressing our anger at the government. Our rights WILL be restored. Our voices WILL be heard. We will continue to fight.
🚨🚨Today the EHRC Code of Practice goes live. Our voices have been ignored. We will not stand for this. We will not stop until our rights are restored.
The CoP does not change the law. Inclusion can happen. The vast majority of the public do not want this.
WE WILL CONTINUE TO FIGHT 🏳️⚧️✊♥️

"Sex at birth (observed)" is now a mandatory data item in the NHS core information standard (v2.0.1). It also appears (if I am reading this correctly) that gender identity and pronouns have been removed.

Maybe a coincidence, but on 16 July, Sex Matters, the self-described 'human rights charity', along with others from their cartel, wrote to the Charity Commission chair calling for them to tell all charities they must follow the EqA2010. On the 21st of July, they did just that
We have written to all MPs raising concerns about the chilling effect threatened litigation can have on public interest research. Freedom of expression must protect charities and human rights organisations as much as it protects those they criticise.
We've also written to the Women and Equalities Committee (WEC) and the Joint Committee on Human Rights (JCHR), calling for parliamentary scrutiny of the chilling effect threatened litigation can have on freedom of expression. The emails were largely identical, tailored to each committee's remit.
