With over 800 NHS executive directors in #NHS ZERO are out as Trans or Non Binary. At least 8 should identify as Trans or Non Binary if It wasn't for discrimination & #Transphobia. We are requesting allies join us in tweeting your local trust to ask #WhereAreTheEight? #BLFI

I’m in solidarity with the trans community. Archaic, discriminatory thoughts & actions, transphobia, have no place in our society. #socialjustice
Take time to learn more if this is new to you or if you feel challenged by it. I’m happy to have a conversation. #NHSTransAllies

I am a feminist
I am a Trans Ally
It’s totally possible to be both and I stand in solidarity with my Trans Colleagues & Patients and against the hate they experience.
And I will always call this out

Enough is enough.
I have a message for all those keyboard warriors, nasty bullies and poisonous journalists,
Leave my friend @Tara_Hewitt alone. I proudly stand with her. You have no right to tarnish her. It’s NOT on.

The NHS should never allow for transphobia - hopeful all my future colleagues will speak out against this and do their upmost to protect trans patients!!

And I also completely knew why I was writing my replies from this account. It is important that our networks stand together against such discriminatory behaviour. @csplgbtqia and @cspbame are our friends and colleagues, more importantly our allies.

To all trans people I know and those I don't, my heart is breaking for you & know that I will continue to be the best ally I can be. I'm also here with an ear if needed or to provide wrap around virtual bear hugs. @TransNHS @PennineCareNHS

We would encourage senior teams & all staff to reach out to their trans & non-binary colleagues right now. Many orgs are prioritising wellbeing for their people & trans people's wellbeing matters too. The attacks being faced are horrendous. Please reach out. #NHSTransAllies

...but I suspect it's a similar picture - and someone (@Tara_Hewitt?) will know. Let's see policies made based on evidence please, not prejudice.

...should not be adding to the stigma experienced by already marginalised groups. People with mental health problems were and are always more likely to be at risk from others than to present a risk to others themselves. I don't know the stats for people who are transgender...

Some individuals present a risk to others through their behaviour. The answer is to assess the risk surrounding the individual in the relevant context, not to assume that because they're part of a particular group they'll be a risk. That is discrimination.
