Today marks my first day as Executive Director of @GiveOut_Org
Itās an honour to step into this role and lead an organisation I believe so deeply in, one that is mobilising resources and solidarity for LGBTQI activists around the world at a time of urgent need.

As the Nicotine Stained Manfrog tries to spin his 22000 votes as a win, meet the real winner of this Backfiring Farage Stunt. @CountBinface should make us all feel proud to be British! Farage credibility is shot! As for not turning up to the count ā¦ pathetic. And spare us the āpolice warning BSā. Binface I salute you.

Muslims voting for a party led by a gay, Jewish man only confirms how inclusive, accepting and diverse British Muslims really are.
Diversity and multiculturalism is winning and GB News presenters are freaking out.
'The most toxic by-election in British history... A masterclass in how diversity and multiculturalism has failed.'
@PatrickChristys gives a breakdown of the controversial campaigns in the Gorton and Denton by-election, accusing the Greens of 'shamelessly pandering' to Muslims.

The footy community has shared the love after Mitch Brown became the first openly bisexual player in AFL history.
He firmly believes there are "currently gay and bisexual men playing in the AFL at the moment and in the past", adding "I see you and you are not alone".

- Donāt want politics in football?Sexuality is not politics, itās humanity.
- Donāt want to know what he does in the bedroom? Thatās ok - no oneās inviting you in.
