Understand the LGBTQIA+ headlines and keep track of the latest queer content and perspectives. This week QueerAF's is written by Jamie Wareham, Dee Whitnell writes the Quick News section and Sasha Baker delivers the Queer Gaze.
๐ฌ This week:
- Labour Party: The UK's ruling party set out its clearest vision about what a Labour government is for this week. We look at the queer takeaways from its party conference.
- Scotland: Following media hysteria over the Isla Bryson prison case, and the country's progressive Hate Crime laws, the Chief Constable in Scotland has set out plans to define sexual assault criminals' gender by their genitalia.
- Back to school: A month after Trans Kids Deserve Better's Department of Education protest, journalist Sasha Baker asks what it's like for the trans kids behind the protest group to be back in school in the Queer Gaze.
Skip the doomscrolling and support queer creatives instead. We are QueerAF โ and so are you.
The queer takeaways from a lacklustre Labour Party conference for our community
