I'm so tired...
Copied & pasted from Tumblr:
JK Rowling agrees to meeting with Labour about gender transition policy
Democracy is when one insane billionaire gets to decide if an entire category of people get basic dignity and rights
Now is a really good time to be able to push back on that. Feel free to ask why a woman who has denied the Holocaust has a more important voice than several hundred thousand trans people and our loved ones, and also to ask if Labour has any plans for addressing the deficiencies in LGBTQ rights in the UK reported in the UN Special Rapporteur’s dossier on this shithole nation :)

And here is a link to Labour's Policy Contact Form
(If you hadn't heard about the Holocaust thing, you can find a breakdown on Vox's Timeline of J.K. Rowling’s transphobia.)

If you wonder where things are at currently for UK trans people (in short: NOT GOOD, VERY NOT GOOD), Pod Save The UK did an episode recently with Abigail Thorn & Freddy McConnell:
What do the Trans community need most right now?

But to make sure that all is not doom and gloom, here is David Tennant at the British LGBT Awards where he was presented with LGBT+ Celebrity Ally award ❤ :)
