Middlesex University LGBT+ Network

@MiddlesexSU @MDXLGBT get in touch if you want to march with us in Pride in London on Saturday 29th June.

So, if you march this Pride season representing Middlesex University, I hope you have a fabulously fun time while remembering the tradition of protest that underpins everything that Pride has to be proud about.

Message from co-chair of the LGBT+ staff network Robert Vesty as we enter Pride season: I will be leaving Middlesex University at the end of this month and would like to thank colleagues across the network for their support. I’ve enjoyed my relatively short time as co-chair.

Thanks and huge respect to Dai Donovan. Dai was the first person from South Wales LGSM made contact with in 1984. Here’s Dai at the first Pits and Perverts in 1984 and again 40 years later.

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT). This year’s theme is NO ONE LEFT BEHIND: EQUALITY, FREEDOM & JUSTICE FOR ALL. It's a reminder that despite progress made, we have much more to do. We're not equal or free until all of us are.

Rally with us for Manuel Guerrero! Join us on Thursday at the Foreign Office in Whitehall to show your support for Manuel Guerrero, the British citizen living with HIV arrested in #Qatar. His verdict is due in early June, Manuel needs your support now! #QatarMustFreeManuel

It’s Trans+ History Week, and on our listening list over the next weeks will be Season 5 of QueerAF, celebrating the millennia-old history of Trans+ communities all over the world. Out every Monday right the way through Pride month from May 13th. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/que…

Standing by @ChrisJepson and The Identity Project and shocked that this has happened. Solidarity with LGBTQ+ workers at John Lewis who should be able to celebrate their beautiful diversity in their workplace.

@PeterTatchell Shocking.

John Lewis cancels LGBT+ photo exhibition after facing anti-trans backlash to a feature in its staff magazine. SHAME! This will embolden anti-trans bullies to close down other events. It's an admission that they can veto what appears in public. Bad news! thepinknews.com/2024/02/21/joh…

This UK LGBT+ History Month is for everyone. Each day we have featured a LGBT+ person from medicine & healthcare either historically or today; if you missed them hop over to our Instagram; https://www.instagram.comlgbthistorymonth?igsh=a3RqdGV5dXY3eWh1 #LGBTplusHM #UnderTheScope
