Tag: Norwich Pride

I’m working with Norwich Pride in my role as the chair of the Trans Advisory Group to put together a protest this weekend, we’ll be protesting the governments complete lack of regard for trans welfare and their propensity for lies. Having agreed to ban all conversion therapy they then decided they wouldn’t (not the first time they’ve decided to renegade on a promise), eventually relenting to protect Lesbian, Gay, and Bi people under pressure – but having publicly admitted that it’s a torture that needs eradicating they refused to protect trans people despite them having a higher chance of being subjected to it. It’s clear, then, that they either have such disdain for trans people that abusing us is either a good thing in their view, or that we don’t qualify as humans and therefore it doesn’t matter if we’re horrendously treated.

There have been a lot of protests lately around this subject, huge ones that have real impact and I only hope that ours will uplift and inspire our local community, and assure everyone that there are people out there dedicated to equality and human rights.
