We are seeing huge increase in ‘That’s So Gay’ used as an insult, especially in primary schools. I’m in a primary school in Cardiff today working with all of KS2 to develop understanding of what gay means, through the lens of family, to raise empathy & stop its use as an insult.

Who wants to bet that the NIMBYs that don’t want to see the electrified railway lines also complain about how bad the trains currently are?

@StoatlyL @tes @bphillipsonMP Bless you, so brainwashed by your echo chamber that you have no idea what actually goes on in schools

A wonderful end to the week delivering LGBTQ+ inclusion training to a primary school in Cardiff. Really challenging questions from the staff, but so thrilled that they felt confident enough to ask. Every pupil, parent and member of staff deserves to be safe, seen & supported.

@shaqharvey Because you haven’t seen or experienced this discrimination. Just because you haven’t, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist

Main reason for inviting me back to your school for follow up training: I will definitely (maybe, possibly) remember to bring back the lanyard that I accidentally stole the first time I visited. I do love the collection of lanyards in my home office though 😂

@shaqharvey A quick Google would show you, but I get the suspicion that you don’t want to know. Enjoy doing your research. I have.

@shaqharvey This is also illegal in the UK. So I would love to see your evidence that is widespread

Didn’t let a car crashing into us stop us from attending the launch of the LGBT+ History Month in Wales with @PrideCymru yesterday. A (mostly) great day and an exciting month ahead.

So apparently, I now go out shopping in my dirty Crocs and don't even notice for at least half an hour. That's just how classy I am

Free speech advocates often claim all voices should be heard but they actually support the spread of misinformation. By treating misinformation as legitimate discourse, they protect criminals, promote conspiracy theorists & enable anarchists. The very people they claim to abhor.

Decided to skip flowers at the wedding. Does that make me a bad gay?

It might be Sunday, but I’m busy recording content for our upcoming DEIB training platform for schools. But sorry in advance, the puppy won’t feature, she’s just the mascot for the recording studio!

We tested the seating plan. Who knew grouping by shared interests would spark Star Trek ranking debates? Bold of us! But let's be real, Voyager rules the galaxy and that's non-negotiable. #StarTrek #VoyagerCrew
