As I see she's back on the media (Sky News) tonight, and this might feel heartless, but if Esther Ghey doesn't start calling out the media for their key (perhaps eventually pivotal) role in a political witch-hunt to eradicate trans people's existence from society, I don't know when will.

It's not about 'social media' being 'the problem', when mainstream media pundits are openly and proudly denigrating and dehumanising trans people like her late daughter...

You can bet Starmer is all "Brianna who" this week as his team double down on the Thatcher love.

Us Queers have had our token display of compassion (which wasn't just a political move at all, nope) and now we go back into the shadows and await a Labour government to ignore us and tell us how much better Thatcher was than our stinking AIDS ridden hides....

I'm probably a bit behind on this, but I've just read that the father of one of the kids that murdered #BriannaGhey has a history of sexual offences against children.
Her life was taken away with unthinkable violence - but you can't help wondering if her killer himself really had much of a chance in his own life.
