Seems like a cool idea!
A couple clarifications regarding the concrete beliefs listed on the site:
Single-focus: By trans people, for trans people. At the time when state oppression (both in the UK but also elsewhere) is tangibly materialising for us specifically, we should also stay focused on us specifically. There is no other ideology attached to it.
Does the "by trans people" part mean the org specifically doesn't want any help or contribution from cis allies, or is it just referring to the founders being trans?
Leaving the country vs staying here: Many people are looking to leave the UK (us included), but we also believe we can do better than everyone leaving quietly on their own. Besides, many people are not in a position to leave easily; we have a duty of care towards them.
Sorry to hear that it's got so bad here that y'all are leaving 😔
Which other countries do you feel are currently doing best at trans rights that you and others wish to move to? Would one of the smaller, more progressive parties like the Lib Dems or Greens winning the next election (or at least being part of a coalition) potentially improve the situation here to a similar level?
When you say "we can do better than everyone leaving quietly on their own", is the implied better alternative leaving in a loudly advertised collective way, to make people aware that things have got so bad that you're all having to leave? Or is it to stay and fight the oppression to fulfill the mentioned duty to those who can't leave easily?
Best of luck 🤞
