A team who’d deliver an LGBT+ Labour our community can be proud of 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

As an ally, it’s great to see that LGBTQ+ Labour members have a choice of candidates who will proudly defend trans rights. It’s a privilege to know some of them - I know for certain they will be steadfast in defending all of the LGBTQ+ community.

Trans Rights Alliance LGBT+ Labour Solidarity + good luck! 🌹

Jill Foster And I have spoken to multiple trans constituents terrified to walk into any loo because the wording of guidance so confused . It’s not helping anyone navigate this terrain and we should expect better.

🏳️‍⚧️ A new Trans Rights Alliance group is backing a large Trans Rights Alliance slate of candidates in the upcoming LGBT+ Labour committee elections, including the organisation's current trans officer. More details here: labourlist.org/2025/07/news-l…

🏳️‍🌈 Pride is a celebration of how far we’ve come, but it's also still a protest. We must never be complacent. LGBTQIA+ rights are still under attack. I'll always stand with our community. In Parliament and on the streets. 🏳️‍⚧️

Thank you for the endorsement Nadia Whittome MP, you're an LGBT+ superstar and we're so happy to have your support 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ If you're an LGBT+ Labour member, register now for the AGM on Saturday 19th July.

Reading the hateful responses to the launch of our Trans Rights Alliance slate, I'm struck by the extent to which many of them resemble old-school homophobia, of the kind that I've largely been able to avoid as a gay man lucky enough to have been born in 21st century Britain. 1/5

All the same tropes that abounded in the media in the days of Section 28 are there. We are repeatedly told that trans people are mentally ill, that they are deviants, that they cannot be trusted around children; this is exactly how gay men were demonised in 1980s media. 2/5

We gays owe it to our trans siblings to defend their freedom in the same way that they have always defended ours. But if that doesn't convince you, know that the people funding the assault on trans rights are coming for gay rights as well. 5/5

Our statement on LGBT+ Labour National Committee's decision to postpone the AGM. We fully intend to contest the LGBT+ Labour AGM. Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️

Desperate behaviour from LGBT+ Labour 👇

If it was a difficult legal decision, you’d have expected them to have made it *before* the AGM was announced, not 24 hours before registrations closed when their Committee positions were in danger of being lost…

So many questions left unanswered about the frankly shocking handling of LGBT+ Labour's AGM, which follows an unfortunate trend of LGBT+ Labour's Committee being unnecessarily opaque and unclear in how it makes decisions.

Update for new viewers of this pinned tweet. The AGM was indefinitely 'postponed' 24 hours before registration closed. We still plan to challenge the AGM whenever they hold it. Follow for updates, join LGBT+ Labour if you haven't already.

As your National Secretary, I will make the constitution available to all. That is, if the incumbent committee ever hands it over! We've been asking for months. Once again, they walk the blurry line between corruption and profound incompetence. Either way, they have to go.

If you haven’t already joined LGBT+ Labour, do it today: lgbtlabour.org.uk/lgbt_labour_fu… It’s time we took our organisation back 🏳️‍⚧️
