This is, and has long been, the position of trade unions and the wider Labour movement on trans rights. As the party of that movement, we must listen and act. That's my message heading into conference.

Seeing this go from a tiny crowd outside the secure zone years ago that I supported as an ally, to a fully fledged rally inside featuring a big line up of MPs and trade union leaders, is so heartwarming. The support for trans people in our party is growing every day 🌹🏳️‍⚧️

Solidarity to Emily. The NEC must end the exclusion of trans women in the Labour Party and promote inclusion in all of our structures. Where laws mandate exclusion, we have a responsibility to reform them instead of hiding behind them.

I've joined more than 120 colleagues in signing this EDM to reject the EHRC Code of Practice. Trans people deserve love and equality. I’m worried these new rules won't achieve that. We need a proper debate in Parliament on them, and what they mean for our trans constituents.

My thoughts on the EHRC Code of Practice
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
It’s the Equality Act that says single sex services can’t admit people of the opposite sex, as clarified in Supreme Court judgment 16 April ‘25. The Code of Practice simply explains it to service providers. supremecourt.uk/uploads/uksc_2… assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6a0de69f…

While it appears that the government has successfully pushed back on some particularly harmful elements in the previous draft, the new Code of Practice will still lead to the exclusion of trans people from services and facilities that they have used without issue for a very long time. This will do nothing to improve women’s lives and the many struggles we face, but it will put trans people (and anyone perceived as trans) at increased risk of discrimination, harassment and violence. The Code unfortunately still represents the culmination of years of anti-trans campaigning from a small, well-funded minority who have had outsized influence in the media and in politics, and have weaponised the courts for their own ends. The legal situation for trans people is now deeply incoherent and means that it is untenable for them to be able live their lives with dignity. This is completely out of line with the values of equality that a Labour government is meant to champion. Instead of making this Code statutory, the government should be legislating to clarify and protect trans people’s rights, privacy and inclusion.

Labour for Trans Rights can in no way support the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s draft Code of Practice. The text differs minimally from the draft version that was leaked last year. (1/3)

This Code of Practice does not deliver certainty, and once again fails to lay out ways in which service providers may include trans people in their services and spaces. (2/3)

It is now clear that the only solution to the impasse created by the Supreme Court judgement is legislative change. Without bold action to reverse our current course, the Labour Party’s relationship with millions of LGBT+ voters and allies will continue to degrade. (3/3)
