Let’s drop the pretence: Kemi Badenoch and her Tory allies aren’t safeguarding anything — they’re laying the groundwork for dismantling equality protections altogether, egged on by the reactionary grifters in Reform and the billionaire-funded media class that thrives on division.

This was never about “women’s spaces.” It’s a deliberate, strategic rollback of hard-won rights, using trans lives as a wedge to undermine the entire framework of equality legislation. And the current government, spineless and flailing, folds to it — not out of principle, but because they’re desperate to keep the right-wing press off their backs.

We’re watching the steady erosion of social progress, enabled by cowards, orchestrated by bigots, and cheered on by oligarchs who would rather we fight each other than notice their grotesque hoarding of wealth and power. There is no compromise to be made here — only resistance.
