My peer-reviewed research publication on what I call “deferral” confirms how trans kids have usually known, in one way or another, for a long time, that they are trans.

Like Hollyoaks it shows that “ROGD” is, and always has been, just a lie.

My research publication on deferral is all the more significant because it was independently replicated by another piece of research published 7 months later, which also confirmed that young trans people usually do not “suddenly” become trans…

The result in the Hackney council by-election in Caznove ward is significant & significantly revealing for a number of reasons.

Given the enormous swing to Labour nationally; a poll published on the day this by-election took place put @UKLabour 27 points ahead...

1/n ... and the Tories down to just 20%, @HackneyLabour should have held onto this seat easily and with a greatly increased majority.

Instead Labour lost the seat to the Tories on an 11% swing AGAINST the national trend...

Liz Truss is officially the worst Prime Minister ever, (& let's face it) she's up against stiff competition for this title.

However she wants to somehow de-recognise people's gender recognition from other countries where trans people have the right to self-identify...

1/n This is obviously an attempt to hit two of the Tories' target hate-groups with one stone; trans people and immigrants.

Transphobia, xenophobia and racism all in one. However her proposal demonstrates just how ignorant she is about this;

There is a section in this “report” by @LabourTogether about trans people which is very one-sided and clearly written without any input from any trans/nb people.

I have attempted to contact author @sundersays and LT’s director @joshsimonstweet many times…

…about this but have received no response or even an acknowledgement of my communication. So I am asking these two to publicly explain to me why they chose to include a section about trans people without consulting trans people…?

This week another trans child was driven to suicide by the relentless transphobia in UK mainstream media.

If mainstream media covers this at all and if any blame is apportioned then the amorphous, cowardly and anonymous group of transphobes on social media will be blamed…

1/18 …that is the way mainstream media avoids accountability for its actions. With anti-trans articles being published at an average rate of 600 per month in UK mainstream media - and with trans people hermetically prevented by editors from publishing our perspectives…

My policy is always to block “gender-criticals” and such like here on MuskTwit because they are repetitive, boring, dishonest and always act in bad faith.

It is pointless to engage with them, they are, literally, not worth the time/effort.

However, sometimes this means…

1/n …that I miss the occasional nugget that unintentionally reveals the way they prosecute their propaganda campaign against trans people. And this one is particularly revealing, but only if you unpick the language deployed at a “micro-grammatical”level…

The UK is fast approaching a demographic tipping-point. You very rarely get tipping-points in demographics because, outside of wars and pandemics, births and deaths are relatively stable. However IMO we are approaching one which will have profound effects on UK politics.

1… The effect of this demographic tipping-point will be exaggerated by the fact that many people who used to switch from supporting left-of-centre parties around the age of 40, are now not doing so. Indeed the age at which Tory voters start to outnumber Labour ones is…

The Observer and The Times are two of the most appallingly transphobic “media” platforms in the UK. They both have a clear policy of excluding trans people from writing about issues affecting trans people, they specifically employ deeply transphobic journalists and…

1… …their “journalism” about us is exclusionary, fearmongering, biased hate-filled mendacity often disguised using “reasonable” sounding language to make the hatred of trans people seem palatable to the middle-classes. It is not “journalism” it is propaganda of the…

This is a refreshing piece of journalism by @Cameron_W_Clark in the @MetroUK.

The issue I have with it is the “educating extremists” as a way out & blaming trans people for Glinner and JKR’s extremism….

How establishment oppression works in the UK;

1. The Tories want to publish transphobic 'guidance' for schools during the Easter holidays. (They never introduce nasties for schools during term time.)

2. An opaquely-funded extreme rightwing propaganda group ("think tank")...

1. ...produces a 'report' saying this transphobic 'guidance' is needed, after the entire mainstream media has been clamouring for oppressive measures directed at trans children for many months.

3. That 'report' is published calling for repressive measures targeting trans kids...

.@cambridgeunion There have been two speakers talking about trans people's human rights at Cambridge University this term, both of them cis. Both opposed to trans people's existence.

You platformed one of them.

1/8 If there had been two speakers at Cambridge University speaking about lesbian, gay and bi human rights, both of whom were straight, and both of whom opposed the existence of lesbian, gay and bi people there would have been an outcry, and rightly so.
