Today, the EHRC Code takes effect, restricting which toilets trans people can use. As a proud ally, I backed EDM 240 calling it unworkable. This debate is still dominated by people who don’t understand the realities of trans people’s lives.

The EHRC guidance hinges on subjective term "discomfort of service users" to ban trans people from universal services. I asked Equalities Minister to ensure trans inclusive public spaces can continue, otherwise the draft code is unreasonable, unfair and unworkable #PrideMonth

Chris Packham this isn’t a “trans debate.” Framing it like that already puts people’s existence up for discussion. It’s not a topic to argue over, it’s people’s lives. And Andrew Gold, calling trans people “deluded” isn’t concern, it’s harm. Those words have real impact on real people. If we’re going to talk about anything, it should be this: How do we support trans people? How do we listen better? How do we help people live safely and fully as themselves?

The Sophie Cunningham trans-athlete “debate” has brought Riley Gaines’s political rhetoric — which is funded to manufacture victimhood — to a sport with zero trans athletes: the WNBA. “This is a story about engagement.” “It is the criminalization of trans people in sports.”

Can trans men be lesbians? A trans man says yes. This is an area of active debate within the trans community. But this creator posits people that agree with her are true queer elders and people who don't are basically terfs.

Dylan Mulvaney says it’s a ‘shame’ some people don’t see him as a ‘woman’: “The folks who maybe don’t see me as a woman, which is such a shame- I just hope that they can find a trans person who they can connect with.”

Yesterday, I questioned the Chair of the EHRC about the new Code of Practice, and the harm it poses to trans people and others who do not conform to gender stereotypes. The Code suggests employees of a business or a service should enforce restrictions based on evidence such as “the individual’s physique or physical appearance, behaviour or concerns raised by other service users.” When asked to specify what these would be, the Chair couldn't answer and instead spoke about “common sense”. The truth is that people would be relying on gender stereotypes, which are harmful not only for trans people but for others as well.

“Using Pro-Nouns can impact Trans-people’s health & impact the risk of depression & suicide” This is astounding - The CEO of an organisation advocating Trans Rights doesn’t even know what the pronouns they are asking people to respect & use even mean. These people are are legit clinically insane.

Trans community of India has hit the streets against the Trans Bill 2026 brought by the Modi Government. They believe this will destroy their lives and make it even more difficult. Is there anything that this Govt does which is actually good for the people?

This is the reality of what happens when you police who is allowed to use which bathroom protect trans men, trans women, enbies and most especially, trans people of color. You are not protecting anyone by passing these cruel laws that solve nothing. do better.

“A lot of the people who identify as trans… just want to escape. I was sexually assaulted when I was 12. I also had a lot of men use me for sexual things. I was groomed as a child by people online. I didn’t want to be female because of how people treated females.”

131 MPs have now signed my motion to stand up for trans people and stop the EHRC's Draft Code of Practice coming into force. For it to succeed, the motion needs to be debated and voted on, so I asked the government if it will allocate time. Unfortunately the Leader of the House did not make that commitment. We will continue to press for a debate and a vote. Please encourage your MP to sign EDM 240.

“A lot of people think that ‘trans women’ means trans-identified women, and that ‘trans men’ means trans-identified males. It's the opposite. This is another reason people are afraid to address the issue, because the language remains so muddy and obscure…” In this clip, Graham Linehan breaks down the confusion around gender terminology and why it clouds public debate.

The ban on puberty blockers is devastating for many young trans people. Currently the only way to access them is through a government trial - I am asking govt to ensure that the trial can be accessed by as many young people as need it.

Good to see BBC Radio 4 Today covering the new EHRC statutory code on single-sex spaces - which comes into effect today - and giving its chair, Mary-Ann Stephenson, a decent amount of time to explain the legal position. But the introduction still slips into ideological framing, presenting the issue as ‘angry debate’ - women’s rights versus “trans rights”. Lambeth council deputy leader Natalie Kane’s contribution was pre-recorded, meaning her claims went unchallenged - particularly the suggestion that the guidance could discourage LGBTQIA people from accessing “life-saving” services, which seems unrelated to rules on single-sex toilets and changing rooms. She should also have been asked about the women whose privacy, dignity and safety these services exist to protect.

Friedrich Hayek: “Marxists can never understand the functioning of the market. They believe it’s the costs which determine prices. The truth is exactly the opposite: it’s prices which tell people how much cost they ought to involve... It is prices by which the knowledge of millions of people can be conveyed to others and serve as a guide to them.”
