We Don't Need Another Song About California

I know if I'm lucky I'll get a couple of these. If I just tick off one of these I'll be happy, I know I'm Not Okay, Helena and Na Na Na are practically a given so that's why they aren't included in the list lol.

I'm fed up with people who are just coming to the shows then complaining about "Gerard burping during Cancer" or "How insensitive a guy with a bomber vest is" - this isn't coming from real MCRmy, this is coming from the casual listeners who aren't invested or knows about the lore behind the tour.

Like, it's frustrating. The guys have put alot of thought into this clearly. The cheapest tickets at Wembley are now around £40 (I got mine for like £80 so annoyed that I didn't wait lol) and for that, you're seeing a whole Rock Opera, theatrical performance. These are stadium shows too.

Like All Time Low's arena tours are far more expensive. A RØRY ticket (she's literally amazing though) in an academy is only slightly cheaper.

Seriously, people need to stop complaining.

Sorry for the rant, I know it's not people on Reddit.

So this is actually quite hard to type. So I currently identify as non binary and using they/them pronouns. I was assigned male at birth but this never really "fit" and I never felt comfortable with any binary gender group.

However and here's the caveat, when being misgendered when someone uses female pronouns she/her, it doesn't really offend me but it's being misgendered using he/him pronouns (just to clarify if someone is doing it on purpose, I always accept that it could be an accident) that it gets to me.

There is a part of me that thinks is it more fluid or is it just I love the fact when Terfs intentionally try to misgender me but still get it wrong (proving that you can't "tell") although I know I'm definitely not male.

Also I only came out at the age of 29 three years ago, I've changed my name legally via deed poll and use Mx. The thought of having to "come out" again feels scary and I also don't want to play into the narrative that "non binary doesn't exist it's just a gateway" and end up by changing my pronouns again playing into this inadvertently.

Also I've looked into Gender Affirmiing Care and was put on a waiting list, years for the NHS GIC years ago now and haven't heard back, I've also looked into this privately and it's so expensive.

I just don't know where to go or who to talk to about this so posting here.

Daisy Cooper the deputy leader of the Lib Dems signed it.

Lib Dems and Labour are both +4 whilst all others have remained stagnant.

All the MP's that have signed this are on the correct side of history while others may be remembered for the wrong reasons.

An update on Party Numbers that have signed the Early Day Motion 240 supporting trans rights and are against the guidance:

Liberal Democrat 42

Labour 41

Plaid Cymru 4

Scottish National Party (SNP) 4

Green Party 3

Independent / Others 4

Reform 0

Conservatives 0

Percentages per each parliamentary party:

Lib Dems: 58.3%

Lab: 10.2%

SNP: 57.1%

Plaid: 100%

Green: 60%

Your Party: 100%

Ind/others: 26.7%

Conservatives: 0%

Reform: 0%

Nuances/things to note:

Both Lib Dems and Greens are both net -1 through the weekend. This could be down to admin error.

On the independent front, Jeremy Corbyn joined the list of signatures today.

The Lib Dems are still the largest party amongst the signatures and the percentage of parliamentary party is very similar between the Lib Dems and Greens.

MP's have 40 days to reject the guidance this ends on the 30th June I believe and 95 on an Early Day Motion is actually really good as some take weeks to sign these motions normally.

Party by numbers who have signed the EDM supporting trans people

Liberal Democrat: 43

Labour: 36

Plaid Cymru: 5

Scottish National Party (SNP): 5

Green Party: 4

Independent / Other: 2

Social Democratic & Labour Party (SDLP): 1

Ref: 0

Cons: 0

Total Active Signatures: 95

Translates to percentages of the Parliamentary Party

Lib Dems: 59.72%

Labour: 8.96%

Plaid Cymru: 100%

SNP: 71.43%

Greens: 80%

Ind/other: 15.38%

SDLP: 50%

Reform: 0%

Cons: 0%

Important things to note:

Of course larger parties will have significantly less of a percentage due to more diversity of views however with the Labour Party this is significantly low and signals why the Lempkin Institute has put the UK on Red Flag alert on trans rights.

The Lib Dems have a significant majority on 59.72% of their parliamentary party and is a pretty standard percentage wise and is expected to increase during the week.

The Green Party on 80% and Plaid on 100% and SNP on 71.43% shows exactly how significantly smaller parties can agree more easily on an issue.

Reform and the Tories on zero shows how little respect those parties have for a group 4 times more at risk of violence than any other demographic despite being less than 1% of the population.

The MPs that have signed it are on the correct side of history.

Please write to your local council and MP.

Hey all this is really random but what's the biggest size MCR Tour Merch? On the website they don't have 4XL and I'm hoping that their Tour Merch goes up to at least 4XL.
