| 0:00.0 | Hello, trash future listeners. Just a quick announcement from some friends of ours regarding the |
| 0:04.6 | terrible EHRC guidance announced today. Unite for an emergency protest outside Parliament on |
| 0:10.1 | Saturday 23rd May in response to new EHRC guidance. It's in Parliament Square on Saturday 23rd May |
| 0:16.1 | 26 at 11 a.m. The nearest tube station is Westminster, which has step-free access. Trans rights are under attack. |
| 0:23.1 | From the courts to the EHRC and in our day-to-day lives, we need to come together and fight back. |
| 0:28.0 | Trans-inclusion is not discrimination. Join us tomorrow on May 23rd, 11 a.m. Parliament Square, |
| 0:33.2 | bring sunscreen, water, and your rage. One struggle, one fight. Thanks for being a TF listener, and please enjoy this bonus episode.
