Whilst leaving an amazing organisation like @stonewalluk last year was a hard decision, I'm proud to still be part of a human rights organisation that supports the fight for global LGBTQ+ rights @TRF 💫 So many examples of important work here 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The day after a petrol bomb attack on innocent people the Home Secretary calls them invaders. Shameful, shameful, shameful. This rhetoric puts so many people at risk. Refugees. Her department's staff. Our staff and volunteers. We are furious.
Pippa Crerar@PippaCrerar

Inflammatory rhetoric from Braverman warning of "invasion" of migrants along south coast. "The British people deserve to know which party is serious about stopping the invasion on our southern coast and which party is not. Let's stop pretending they're all refugees in distress".
