The UK is sinking like the Titanic and to distract their voters, the Tories stoke their fears about one of the most fucked over groups in society.
They're throwing trans people under the bus in order to stop people focusing on how the rich are getting richer, but they're getting poorer.

This is the same EHRC that considers it an anomaly that trans women can be on all-women shortlists but trans men can't.
Sometimes the sheer brazenness of it shocks me before the inevitable depression hits. It would be really nice if, occasionally, they could try not being the worst version of themselves.

The #EqualityAct hasn't passed Senate due to the filibuster bond between #kyrstensinema and #mitchmcconnell
It's one of a long list of bills topped by VotingRightsProtections and Roe codification that died in Senate courtesy of #JimCrowSinema

Is that one of her rationale for helping block #EqualityAct as she did w her bond w McConnell in 2021?!

#EqualityAct. Sen Mark Kelly knows Sinema has and wd again kill this bill, and for payola as when she killed #VotingRightsProtections (#MarkKelly has zero complaints to her). Also see her timeline for her standard resentment of Dem voters and platform.

#SenatorSinema did the bidding of rich donors and upheld a racist procedural relic to obstruct the #EqualityAct, so if she posts in support of Pride or waves a Rainbow Flag, never forget that she put her bond w #MitchMcConnell's #JimCrowFilibuster above the basic rights of millions of us Americans.

Of course by then, Badenoch likely will have made it completely pointless.
And as I expected, the original one (the anti-trans one) to amend it to make it based on 'biological sex' (whatever that means), which has 30k fewer signatures, will be 'debated' at the same time.

EVERYONE has the right to protest
The #HumanRightsAct bans the police from discriminating against you
And the #EqualityAct lays out what the police must and must not do

On Tuesday, the Equality and Human Rights Commission (#EHRC) released a gov-commissioned letter to append the word "biological" to the protected category of "sex" in the #EqualityAct.
We strongly oppose this politically motivated, homophobic, and transphobic assault.
