Oh I know that. I have a couple of Bulgarian friends, one of who lives in the UK and another who is an internet friend and is in Bulgaria. I was more interested in options for her.
100,000 trans people & allies fill central London for Trans Pride.
Mainstream media: nothing
Thousands of trans people & allies fill Wembley Arena for pro-trans gig with massive names like Sophie Ellis-Bextor & Sugarbabes.
Mainstream media: nothing.
This is what extreme media bias looks like.
Does this open the door for people who haven't moved to another EU country under some local equal treatment legislation perhaps?
CJEU press release: Member State legislation which does not permit the amendment of the gender data of one of its nationals who has exercised his or her right to freedom of movement is contrary to EU law A Bulgarian national was registered at birth as being male, with a name, personal identification number and identity documents corresponding to that sex. She currently lives in Italy, where she has begun hormone therapy, and now presents herself as a woman. She instituted proceedings before the Bulgarian courts seeking a declaration that she is a female person and to have her civil status data amended on her birth certificate. Despite the medical opinions and legal assessments confirming the gender identity claimed, her request was rejected. According to national legislation, as interpreted by the plenary assembly of civil chambers of the Bulgarian Supreme Court of Cassation, the term ‘sex’ must be understood in its biological sense, excluding any amendment of the particulars relating to sex, name and identification number. The public interest, based on the moral and/or religious values of Bulgarian society, thus prevails over the interests of transgender persons. Hearing the dispute, the Bulgarian Supreme Court of Cassation has doubts as to the compatibility of that legislation with EU law and has referred the matter to the Court of Justice. In its judgment, the Court holds that EU law precludes legislation of a Member State which does not permit the amendment of the gender data in the civil status registers of one of its nationals who has exercised his or her right to move and reside freely in another Member State. The Court emphasises first of all that, while the issue of identity documents falls within the competence of the Member States, they must exercise that competence in compliance with EU law...
Huge trans rights ruling from the EU's top court - if someone moves to another EU country and transitions, their home country can't refuse to amend their registration details to match their lived gender identity
Not sure I'm going to buy that they're all so terrified of trans people anymore, given they turned up to a stadium with thousands of them.

You know what tho
Labour is killing trans people
Labour is killing trans people
Pass it on!!
It's true that the Tories stuffed NHS institutions with transphobes, but not removing (or sidelining) them was 100% a Labour decision. This latest surge in transphobia (including the Supreme Court decision, which they could have overturned but didn't) is 100% Labour policy and 100% Labour's fault.
If you've watched how NHS England - stuffed, as Kemi Badenoch explicitly told us, with her handpicked transphobes - does trans* healthcare you can't be surprised by this from @erininthemorning.com.
But still, it's an important service to see her lay it all out.
⚠️ PUBLIC HEALTH WARNING: We believe NHS England and DHSC policy on transgender healthcare shows signs of ideological capture by the gender critical movement. Current decisions risk serious harm to trans people and undermine evidence-based care.

So please, if you can, I’d love to have this thread list pro-Trans everything. Creators, craftspeople, writers, artists, activists…if you or someone you know deserves some celebrating, bring it the fuck on, okay?
Post links if you can.
Buy stuff if you can.
They hate when people stand up.
It also cemented the wrong questions. They’re stuck asking “Do these medicines have an effect that we, cis people, can measure against our extremely cooked and arbitrary scale?”
When the real question is, “Do these people want to change sex?”
what do you do when your desired outcome (banning gender-affirming care) goes against the medical consensus? easy: simply exclude 97% of the relevant medical studies from your review...
EVERYBODY should sit up, take notice, and get shouting about this. Everybody. Yes. You!
Nobody is safe in a country that bans life saving healthcare with no evidence, just because some people dislike a demographic.
What Streeting has done is disgusting and murderous. He should be jailed for this.
This feels like the only way forward at this point. We need to rediscover the principle of "Nothing about us without us".
That we reject ON PRINCIPLE any review that does not have trans leadership and trans accountability steeped in its design.
The cis people who have been put into positions of authority across trans youth healthcare do not have our trust & continue to demonstrate they do not DESERVE our trust.
Trans healthcare needs to be led by trans people, to be accountable to trans communities and trans youth.
Folks who don't believe in the existence of a trans child cannot continue to hold the reins of healthcare policy and governance.
This is where we start.
Yesterday the NHS banned all under 18 prescriptions of HRT for trans young people.
This ban was justified by 10 new studies that largely stated NO EVIDENCE for under 18s HRT exists.
The study underpinning this played one particular trick.
Let's briefly look at how the NHS rigged the game 1/5
The reviews used to justify this excluded nearly 97% of all studies from inclusion in their analysis. This is an absolutely obscene hatchet job by the NHS specifically created to eliminate access to hormones for trans youth.
1/🧵 I am reviewing NHS England’s “evidence” papers supporting their ban of GHAT for 16- and 17-year-olds.
It’s hard not to see this as a deliberate and malicious attempt to manipulate the evidence base. Most notably, the scope is restricted to monotherapy or GnRH analogues.
You’d think in this era of “MPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name
No, but, you see, when Rosie Duffield says that she needs security to attend the Labour conference as a result of her transphobic bigotry, this is a free speech issue. When Hannah Spencer is harassed in the street by transphobes, that is simply them using their free speech. It’s not complicated.
It is noteworthy how much transphobes have stopped using the claim of “institutional capture” since they finally completed their goals of capturing every institution.
Cis people need to pay attention to the way they communicate this. They freely admit that after all of their research, they came up with zero evidence that HRT was harmful.
Then they banned it anyway, claiming their inability to find a reason is a reason in of itself.
I think what they're really trying to say is "How do I explain that queer people are bad when more and more of the world is saying they're good? How can I claim queer people are base animals when they're walking around openly being regular human beings?"

1/🧵 Great, Mary-Ann Stephenson has personally ordered the EHRC to withhold their “outdated” transgender school guidance.
“Judge me on what I do” huh?

We've just learned that the person at the MHRA whose letter caused Wes 'I follow the clinical evidence' Streeting to cancel the puberty blockers trial is Professor Jacob George, the GC who enjoyed mocking trans people on his social media account.
Why did Wes Streeting cover up his name?
Congratulations Gillian! Incredibly chuffed for everyone you are going to represent. They're in good hands.
