The #WoodcraftFolk statement on the exclusion of trans kids by #girlguidinguk
"For more than 100 years we have welcomed children and young people of all genders. Our movement is built on equality, cooperation and solidarity. We work alongside trans young people and partners and we know that inclusive youth work creates safer, healthier communities for everyone."
Why do racist rioters get treated with so much respect?
"One month ago, I marched with 100,000 people at London Trans Pride... But somehow, trans people and their allies are still treated like a fringe minority.
By contrast, there are rarely more than a thousand people at the asylum hotel protests - but parliament and the papers are falling over themselves to respect their complaints. "
