Great work. Love the way that Trafalgar Square is used for these different celebrations of the many cultures that make up my brilliant city.
More of this please.
I agree with @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social - nothing in the law requires exclusion. Whether you're the Women's Institute or the Girl Guides you have the option of just making your rules say you accept biological females and trans girls/women.
This is an act of choice, not legal necessity.

I'm for socially progressive politics and European alignment, I've lost faith in Labour, and Labour is losing seats.
It's not impossible to turn around. But we urgently need to bin Blue Labour, talk up progressive policies, build houses, and likely, change leader to someone the public likes.
In 2015, the Los Angeles SPCA gave their annual National Hero Dog award to a tabby cat named Tara. Yes, you read that right, a cat was given a dog award.
