"Into this pervasive atmosphere of latent indifference arrives Be, like a shining sunbeam that comes lancing in." Thank you so much @bristol247 for this beautiful review of Be. - what a joy to end this tour with a sell-out final night at @LocoKlub 💖 Thank you to all who came!

Labour’s manifesto promised to “remove indignities for trans people”, yet the government’s ban on puberty blockers adopts the Tories’ politicised unevidenced approach. Young people — cis & trans — must have access to healthcare they need. I stand firmly with the trans community.

Trans people are worthy of the same courtesy and dignity as anyone else, no matter who's in the room. It shouldn't take the presence of a grieving mother to remind politicians that they're talking about real people.
Replying to @lewis_goodall
The grim thing is that normally most in Westminster wouldn’t have batted an eyelid at this. It’s only because Brianna’s mother was in Parliament it’s being picked up. Trans people have slowly become the butt of political jokes under several PMs. This should be a wake up call.

Btw transphobic comments aren't OK even when there isn't the mother of a murdered trans child in the room.

current waiting list for ‘benign’ gynae is 3 years. hysterectomy is 2-3 years. laparoscopy surgery is 4 years. 3 months for MRI results. 10 weeks for a smear test. 10 years for endo diagnosis. they are distracting you from their incompetency with this. don’t fall for it.

@Conservatives know what a woman is.   I know the vast majority of hardworking NHS staff and patients do too.   That is why I ordered a reversal of unacceptable changes to the NHS website that erased references to women for conditions such as cervical cancer. #CPC2023

Hi Rishi, I am a proud, unapologetic trans MAN. How dare you endanger our lives, peace, and safety so selfishly and carelessly. You and your party are the bullies, and history will see you as such.
"We shouldn't get bullied" into believing that "people can be any sex they want to be" "A man is a man, and a woman is a woman, that's just common sense," PM Rishi Sunak says Follow live bbc.in/3rLuHjj

More nasty divisiveness from the hard right playbook Sunak is using for his speech. Horrible veiled attack on trans people for a cheap round of applause. He doesn't care about the fact hate crimes against trans people have gone up 56% under this Government's watch. #CPC2023

Still keen to find more people for this - would especially love some global majority artists 🥰
I have been very kindly offered a space to R&D my latest script at the @draytonarmsSW5 (thank you @audrey_thayer!!!) in August. I need actors, creatives, dramaturges, directors, anyone who is up for providing feedback and engaging with the piece for a few hours.

Trans Pride is happening today, so here is your reminder that trans people deserve love, respect, dignity, and joy. And rights. Trans people deserve human rights. (Photo from London Pride last weekend)

Sorry to keep pointing out the obvious, but *this* is gender ideology. This is the state enforcing gender norms - what clothes you wear, what name and pronouns you go by. The fact that the proponents of this policy call themselves "gender critical" is risible

All I’m saying is I’ve never seen Finn Harkin and Kae Tempest in the same room
It’s happened again! I was asked in a club in Hackney last night if I’m Kae Tempest. At this point I need a biopic to be made so I can play younger Kae
