Leeds Lib Dems

In Leeds we give the honorary Mayor a car to use. This is right as they have a busy schedule visiting many sites and organisations. The car has the reg U1 which is worth £000’s Wouldn’t the value of the reg be better used giving services to the good people of Leeds?

We’re all ready for the start of the @CarnivalLeeds . If you’re coming down, pop along say hello, meet some of our Leeds councillors and let us know more about what you’d like us to campaign on.

Was an amazing day yesterday at Pride, my first ever pride and representing the Lib Dems, and so many kind people signing the petition to end the ban on puberty blockers! :) #Pride #LGBTQIA

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC 0 comment on your boss's trans care ban is it? no comments on rosies homophobia? some ally mate. pink washing from labour as always

Great to join @LeedsPride as an ally of the LGBTQ+ community. The atmosphere was great as always and as well as the parade and stage I visited a number of partner organisations from Leeds Central including @PAPYRUS_Charity and @MesmacLeeds and of course @marchingoutlufc.

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC The LGBTQ+ aren’t props for your publicity ops.

Best of luck to the Democrats at this fork in the Road. Democratically defeating Trump is in the interests of democracies everywhere. Do what you gotta do. Please. For all of us.

@GeorgeAylett @TracyBrabin @Jonathan_Pryor Meanwhile we got hundreds of signatures on our petition. leedslibdems.org.uk/campaigns/no-b…

So @TracyBrabin and @Jonathan_Pryor took to the stage at Leeds Pride saying that Labour would stand up for LGBT+ rights.. they failed to mention that their government have essentially banned gender-affirming care for u18s by banning puberty blockers for trans young people.

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC You can’t be an ally if you’re silent about the anti-science ban on safe, effective, life-saving puberty blockers. You can’t be an ally if you’re silent on this.

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC Hi Alex, you’ve spoken out in support of many progressive policies. As a mum of a trans son it would be great if you would also speak out in support of trans young people getting access to puberty blockers. You have constituents who are directly impacted by the current ban! 😞

@LisasMuffins @Jonathan_Pryor @LeedsPride leedslibdems.org.uk/campaigns/no-b…

@Jonathan_Pryor @LeedsPride Except of course trans folk since you are allowing Wes Streeting to kill trans kids and withdraw trans healthcare I was disgusted that Labour were allowed to take part.

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC The government you represent as an MP announced an anti-LGBTQ+ policy within a fortnight of being elected. Talk me through what your allyship looks like in practical terms. We can all have fun at a party, hun.

@GeorgeAylett @alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC leedslibdems.org.uk/campaigns/no-b…

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC Any thoughts on your government’s decision to ban puberty blockers for trans young people? You promised to speak out for LGBT+ rights. You’ve been tweeting a lot but haven’t condemned this decision which could lead to higher rates of trans youth suicides. Why?

@LeftieStats @alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC Meanwhile our no ban on puberty blockers petition gained hundreds of signatures, feel free to add yours… leedslibdems.org.uk/campaigns/no-b…

@alexsobel @LeedsPride @PAPYRUS_Charity @MesmacLeeds @MarchingoutLUFC You've said nothing about Labour's puberty blocker ban.

@Lukas66928499 @LeedsPride Thank you 🙏

What a fabulous day at @LeedsPride today. We had a lot of support on the parade, and the “Say no to puberty blockers ban” petition got hundreds of signatures- the strength of feeling about this is huge. Hopefully Labour will listen. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🔶🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🔶🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🔶🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🔶

Really pleased Tom and friends from Harrogate & Knaresborough and Kirklees joined us for @LeedsPride today.
