Rosie Duffield should have been expelled years ago. She’s played a huge role in making the party a more dangerous and less welcoming space for queer members, and she should never have had the privilege of resigning.

The Cass Review methodically excluded swathes of research into healthcare for trans people, and would take a hammer to the little vital care that already exists. Implementing the Cass Review will hurt people, and Labour must stand against this fundamental threat to trans rights.

1/ The Labour Party should stand on the side of marginalised groups, even when politically inconvenient. That means not uncritically engaging with reports with questionable methodology, especially where doing so threatens the dignity and health of so many vulnerable people.

This is bigotry, plain and simple. As a party, anything less than outright opposition to these guidelines condemns us as complicit in the Tory war on the trans community, and we can’t let up till the leadership reverses its disgusting approach. Labour must do better. 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Shame. Anger. Disgust. Even as Labour MPs line up to voice their opposition for this despicable and cruel attack on trans children the party endorses transphobic policy. We deserve so much better from Labour than bigoted leadership and absent allies unwilling to speak up.

Thank you to @OxUniLabour for the endorsement! I could say it’s a privilege and an honour to be endorsed by the largest Labour Club in the country (and I will) but I also can’t help but say it’s great to be endorsed by a club with such a fantastic logo.

Now this, we like to see! The profits from our railways should be put back into cheaper fares, better travel, and fairer wages for the people who actually make the railways work - which nationalisation achieves. Also I really like trains so I’m massively excited about this 🛤️🚂

I worked in the Cardiff West Constituency Office over Summer 2022. I wasn't there for very long, but even in my short time I was struck by how much Kevin had done for Cardiff West - and how much sticking up for the community means to him. Parliament will be worse for his absence.

And it goes beyond the Parliamentary Party. I remember the furore at Welsh Conference in 2022 and the despicable treatment of our trans members then. We owe a duty to combat transphobia wherever it arises, inside or outside the party, in CLP, the PLP or anywhere else.

@charilaou_alex is bang on, as usual. Keeping the cap means kids go hungry. It also creates a dangerous space for the right to flourish. We can call and call for restraint, but what good does that do for children in poverty? It's time to scrap the cap.

Why run? We have a real chance to push Labour into power in Westminster, and a chance to use our voices as Labour Students to make sure that Labour in power will fight for what we know is right. Good Labour values, and the fantastic people on this slate, can help us do that.
