"I don't take sides" doesn't work anymore. Silence isn't neutral. It favours the aggressor. Time to speak up.

We stopped having a right to privacy as soon as we were forced to tell people we were trans before kissing them.
Then they tried forcing us to out ourselves at the changing rooms.
This is just another step down the road to exclusion.

Wasn't there some human right about privacy or something? They say these questions are voluntary - but that assumes you will be told such. Also, many government departments are now asking trans status.
Why.
Why.
As of May 2026, Police Scotland now ask every person who reports or witnesses a crime for data about their “sex” and their “trans status”.
These questions are voluntary - you are not legally required to disclose your sex or your trans status to the police when reporting or witnessing a crime.

The TUC, congress of all the UK's trade unions, have voted to condemn the EHRC guidance and backed self-ID.
Good luck finding reporting on it, you'll struggle to find it, even as the papers report on plenty of other things the TUC has voted on, and speeches.

If anyone asks me about my 'sex at birth' I will not be answering the question. I will be asking why they want to know about the genitals of children. Loudly.

This is IMO the real reason why “gender-critical” transphobes are desperate to stop a conversion therapy ban, or - as Labour is doing - implement one with so many holes it is more like a *guide* than a ban.

Burnham has imposed;
1. The trans segregation & toilet ban
2. The trans Section 28+ to segregate & bully children in school
That makes Burnham the most transphobic Prime Minister ever, & by a very wide margin.
The fact that he is saying nothing about makes him a *coward* as well as a transphobe.

![In March 1992 Booth was targeted by blackmailers who threatened to kill her and petrol bomb her chain of Transformation stores across the UK. The blackmailers demanded £150,000 in cash and a prearranged drop site 200 miles away from Manchester was arranged. Booth called the police, who monitored the drop and gave chase when two men in their 30s collected the money.[36] The incident ended when the police rammed the suspects' car and the men were arrested.[37] Magistrates decided to drop the case against the suspects in 20 August 1992.[38]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jtocuf6vsinb5jj6lpbix4gh/bafkreifgjkog7gc6skkkfj3pwo7flfb22p5evmom5ojsavg5x2cklybica)

What the UK Government is going by its decisions on trans people is teaching trans people that authority doesn't protect, but instead abuses. This applies in schools, in the workplace, in civic society, in politics, in healthcare.
And if they can do this to trans people, they can do it to anyone.

This is exactly the outcome that the “gender-critical” movement, which is directing the EHRC, wanted. A situation in which trans people cannot exist in the workplace - or anywhere else in public - at all.
A trans man in the UK has been banned in the workplace restrooms after he was forced to use the women's restrooms to comply with the new EHRC guidance. The women complained because he is visibly male and so they told him he can't use any bathroom.
![A screenshot of a Reddit post from the r/LegalAdviceUK subreddit by user Dijstraanon, titled "FtM transgender facing two different issues at work? England."
The post text reads:
"Brother in law is trans FtM and presents fully as a man. He's now facing an impossible situation at work with his employer telling him that due to recent legislation he must use the toilet of his birth gender. BUT several female colleagues have raised a grievance about him using their gendered toilet.
His employer has told him that he cannot use the toilet while he is at work until they sort it out and cannot give him a timeframe to do so. They do [cut off] have disabled separate toilets.
In the mean time one of his female colleagues has accused him of sexual harassment because he was used their gendered toilet. His menstrual cycle meant he needed to use the toilet.
He's been with the employer for just over 5 years but only in this location for 18 months. The location is mainly male with just a handful of females, and his workshop only has male toilets.
I do not know how to support him and as he's not in a union there is no one to turn too right now."
