We have one week left to #BanConversionTherapy
Put aside 30 mins to respond to the UK Government’s consultation. Survivors of conversion therapy and any LGBTQIA+ person or an ally can respond.
Every response counts. banconversiontherapy.com/gui…

Ladies, unless it’s your *specific* job, never EVER run around for your male colleagues. Ever. I know it’s awkward when you’re young and new to a job but just say “no”. 👎

hi, are you doomscrolling? Our bodies were not designed to be this anxious and stressed for so long. How about going to sleep early tonight? You still deserve time to rest and recover.

Remember: your boss can’t just send you home with no pay, if you're on a permanent/fixed contract.
Even if there is no work.
If it happens, contact a union representative or employment lawyer.
Your best protection is to join a union. Together, we are always stronger.

1. It's not a sin to be transgender.
2. It's not a sin to be LGBTQ.
3. As Pope Francis has said, the Eucharist is not a "prize for the perfect."
4. Catholic leaders must be aware of the real-life effects of such stigmatizing language on LGBTQ people.

🚨DEADLINE EXTENDED🚨 This consultation should have been accessible from the beginning so it is important that the UK Government is fixing its mistake by providing an easy read version.
#BanConversionTherapy
I am determined to stamp out conversion therapy and protect free speech.
I want everyone to be able to have their say on this important issue.
We have extended our consultation to ensure all voices are heard.

Today is #WorldAIDSDay
On 1 December, we must give thanks to those who came before us. The progress we’ve made in the fight against HIV wouldn’t be possible without their contributions.
Here's our CEO @ianrgreen on remembering those we've lost and looking to the future👇

TW:- Trans healthcare
This is a disgraceful situation that affects us here in the SW. We implore @NHSDevonCCG @BNSSG_CCG and others to get this sorted ASAP!

Rob Roberts should have resigned the moment he was suspended from Parliament for sexual harassment.
It's a disgrace the Conservative Party has re-admitted him.
What message does this send about their commitment to tackling sexual violence & harassment?

This is a moment to dream big, to rethink our priorities – what we value, what we want, what we seek – and re-plan our future, committing to act in our daily life on what we have dreamed of. The time to act, and to act together, is now! #COP26

I did not think that 2021 would be the year that a small number of people who are, presumably, comfortable with their sexuality would be telling everyone else to get back in the closet.

1. Anyone who uses term “Slutty girls” for victims of sexual abuse deserves nothing but contempt
2. it’s very common for victims of sexual abuse to introduce others to the abuser - it ‘called ‘power & control’
3. Her subsequent alleged actions are no defence to your alleged abuse
Prince Andrew has sought to turn the tables on Virginia Giuffre by claiming that in fact she was involved in the “wilful recruitment and trafficking of young girls for sexual abuse” thetimes.co.uk/article/princ…

What an exhausting week to be an LGBT+ person in the UK. To those that say we don’t need pride anymore, we do. We really do. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Ask the UK Government to fully fund action to end new HIV cases by 2030 and to support people living with HIV. @THTorguk has made it easy for you to make your voice heard 👉 hivcommission.org.uk/action
