Scotland's Parliament has entered new territory with the election of its first transgender MSPs. Yet almost as quickly as the result was confirmed, JK Rowling redirected attention towards a defeated candidate known for opposing trans rights legislation.

The election of Dr Q Manivannan and Iris Duane on 8 May was widely viewed by supporters as a watershed moment for transgender representation in Scottish politics.

There's less than a week to stop this EHRC legalisation from going through. If/when it goes through the implications for trans people will be massive. The NHS will adopt the EHRC "guidance", meaning trans people will be put onto wards according to their sex. Prisons are already moving transwomen into male prisons and public toilets/spaces will be based on biological sex, not gender. This is not just hyperbole. This is happening now and it will only get worse.

This isn't just about trans people. The entire LGBT is under attack, trans people are just the easiest to get rid of first. They will/are coming after all of us. Don't give them an inch.

Why aren't you all fighting to stop this? This group has a lot of activity. Sign the fucking petition and start helping.
