Every Irish queer, woman and outcast is surely feeling Sinéad’s passing tonight. Back in 2017 when I worked for TENI we got a call from her management asking could she donate her closet to us to as she was downsizing and wanted the clothes to go to trans folk in need. An icon.

Emmanuel Macron says the Irish backstop is "indispensable." @siobhni says the reason Boris Johnson doesn't understand that is a long-held tradition of British ignorance.

As a fat, working class, black woman I really didn’t think Alison Hammond would be naive or cruel enough to help Rishi humanise his hate. Sure, ask the bigot in chief his reaction to his billionaire wife lavishing praise on him when he’s done nothing but sow division and hate.

I believe parts of the US are building towards a trans genocide. We don’t have years to fix the issue of transphobia. We are running out of time, we’re almost completely out. This is killing trans people now. If you aren’t up in arms screaming about it, you’re complicit.

Lies. Trans people are conservatively 1.5%-3% of the population. Let’s assume trans women are 0.5%. 59.6 million people live in England and Wales. 0.5% of that is 298,000. 56 out of a group of 298,000 is 0.01% or 100 in 1 million. Compared to 490 in 1 million for men.

A reminder that “we have to house our own first” is always and will be a hollow, meaningless facade for racism. This was a known fact, for more than a week before the attack. It was common knowledge in the area that this was a facility for homeless families and it burned anyway.
