Notes

Howdy! You might remember the Gender Recognition Reform Bill's long journey and brief success before the first use of a s 35 Order by the UK Gov. Well, I worked on it – and came out as non-binary during the journey of that work. After a period of grieving for what could have been, I've decided to pick up the work again – however that might look – and stand up, fight back. This law reminds me we can, and do strive for better trans futures for all!
