UKPON are proud associate members of InterPride & EPOA. Together we stand in solidarity with our LGBTQ siblings for an inclusive, welcoming future. #LoveisLove
Yesterday, the UK stepped into a dark phase, a dangerous phase where our trans siblings are being targeted and the beginning of the erosion of LGBTQ rights. We must stand together! #notmygovernment
What an amazing day for @RigaPride@JayJayGayGay is there representing UKPON. Amazing to meet and march with @UKinLatvia and the Ambassador @PaulBrummell great chat about prides here in the UK!
As a member of our team heads to @RigaPride this weekend, we join @EuroPride congratulating @edgarsrinkevics for being elected President of Latvia. Joining the few openly LGBTQ heads of state in Europe
The UK again drops 3 places to 17th. Completely unacceptable. We have stagnated with our LGBTQ rights and something needs to be done. @number10gov needs to wake up and do more. For a start stop weaponizing trans rights in the UK. @nickherbertcbe whats your thoughts?
UK shamed by Ireland after country outlaws LGBTQ conversion therapy! When will @number10gov finally ban this abhorrent practice? Half a decade later... still waiting!

This morning @CommissionerHR@Dunja_Mijatovic has released a damnign report on the state of Human Rights here in the UK. The board of UKPON and our members are extremely concerned with the content and urge @number10gov to take this seriously.
Our rights our in regression!
(1/3)
There is a toxic public discourse towards our trans siblings in the UK which is having a detrimental effect. The right to assemble will jave a harmful effect on all of our member Prides and our biggest concern falls over the proposed abolition of the Human Rights Act (2/3)
We must stand together as a Network, we must stand up and be heard and stop the regression of our Human Rights here in the UK and hope the British Government listen to us @DominicRaab@KemiBadenoch

Pride season is coming to an end in the UK, but not quite. This weekend coming sees @ObanPride happening after postponing due to the passing of HM The Queen.
The Corran Halls, Oban, 12/11/22
Good Luck to the team in Oban!
In other news. A member lead vote to the @nationaltrust to stop them participating in Prides in the UK has FAILED. We are very pleased to hear that the National Trust will still be working with and attending Prides here in the UK
Congratulations to @LCRPride for winning the opportunity to host the UKPON AGM in 2023. Were glad that the network 'made its mind up' and that Liverpool is 'saving all its kisses for us'
