The first episode of @dragraceukbbc was definitely all I wanted it to be. It can only grow; and I am living for all the references... that we actually understand. Roll on episode 2. #DragRaceUK

Today marks 21 years since the third and final bomb, over a 3 weekend period, was set off in the #AdmiralDuncan pub in Soho, an LGBTQ+ venue. This incident killed 3 people & injured 79. #WeRemember

Of course that’s the slant taken. Weaponised experiences (which nobody is refuting or dismissing), used to defend an aggressive standpoint against one of the most marginalised & targeted groups in today’s society. I hate this world.

I’m standing as the @LibDems candidate for Liverpool Garston in #GE24 . @EdwardJDavey has just addressed the nation on #QuestionTime and put the case forward as to why you should vote Liberal Democrat. This is just a very brief intro to me and why I’m standing. #BBCQT

Been a little quiet of late, with so much going on personally. But some positive news to say that I, along with @RebeccaTurnerLD & @kayleighalpin , are now approved @LibDems Prospective Parliamentary Candidates. That’s something. 🤯🫣💛

It’s a privilege to stand for the @LibDems in Liverpool Garston, when a General Election is called. I attended @SFX1842 , did performing arts in Garston village & thanks to my education w/ @allianceparty , I want to support local people as best I can.

I’ve had mad many people ask me, “why are you a @LibDems ?” And after my first party conference, that has been fully realised. I’m progressive. I agree in pragmatism and respecting a balance within society. I believe in supporting people. Agree? Join us

I can’t! @EdwardJDavey has pulled a blinder w/ his ability to draw attention to important issues in fun & engaging ways. People claim politicians are too stuffy & out of touch w/ the electorate, then criticise actions such as this. I think it’s brilliant in raising awareness.

I am all for freedom of speech, but what is a speaker, known for his spouting of what is against the Equality Act, allowed to tour the the UK in such high profile buildings?! @ACCLiverpool , what protections are in place for our minority communities when he comes to our city?!

If you’d had told me in 2015, when I was at my lowest, that within so many years I’d had have my own house, a fiancé and just booked to go to Orlando in December 2020 to celebrate my *cough* 30th. I’d have never believed you.

“I’m not a f*cking party planner. I’m an activist, and I’m angry.” - @AliCamps Whilst I appreciate the recognition, I’m tired of the connotation that we organise Pride as a “party”. It is, indeed, a celebration; but it has been, & forever will be, a protest. Educate yourself.

I recently picked up the courage to go the doctors. He diagnosed me with depression & has prescribed medication. I’ve been in & out of these emotions for years, always putting off going to my GP. So, I’m now taking time to navigate it all. #MentalHealthAwareness

Absolutely incredibly powerful video from @Mermaids_Gender , starring Liverpool’s very own, Emily. She is a superstar and a credit to herself, her family and her community. “If you haven’t listened to Trans kids, don’t speak about them.”

Well, first night of @LibDems Spring conference was a chilled one. Good to catch up with @LiverLibDems , meet other members with the usual “I follow you on social media”, and for Team Liverpool to chat with party leader @EdwardJDavey . Now for the full day of activities.

If you’re endorsing the Worker’s Party over Labour… please, don’t claim to support the LGBTQ+ community when that party is excruciatingly socially conservative. I’m sick and tired of our community being used as a political punch bag for cheap point scoring.

Anybody else feel like @bbcquestiontime has become a purposeful breeding ground for hard right wing arguments to be platformed? I see no positive discussion come from this programme anymore - just hate mongering.

This is how racism and far right extremism is normalised and legitimised. This is a vile, unhinged rant, packed full of lies and hate, and the BBC decide to uncritically clip it so it can be easily shared across social media.

Sometimes you have to speak out when you can see the effect actions are having on someone. @THEVIVIENNEUK is not transphobic. She is a human being who is walking a tightrope without a net due to two simple & easy mistakes. Take your fight to the real bigots.

Out delivering for @LiverLibDems today, before the torrential came from nowhere (or the sky before anyone gets cute 👀🤣). If there’s any one reason to join a political party, aside from the obvious, it’s to be getting those steps in. 🏃🏻‍♂️💨

It was an honour to establish an organisation which aims to further support the LGBT+ community with a City region wide remit. However, I feel the time is right to step away & focus on myself & other projects. I wish the team the best for the future.

Last night was something else. Both @andiherring & I have spent the last 8 months doing a 9-5, then a 5-10 meeting every organisation we could to talk @LCRPride . That culminated in last nights partner & theme launch with over 250 organisations represented. Just... thanks.

Observing how @LCRPride has become a place where national agencies and local authorities are turning for support and signposting in a matter of months since establishing it... is mind boggling. Thank you to everyone who has been supportive, and understanding it’s all voluntary!
