They were as transphobic AF.
Summerskill weirdly was opposed to marriage equality for LG people too 🤪
I had a horrible feeling that Nancy Kelley's resignation was to do with backsliding on trans rights.
Anderson was involved with the Tory government until recently.
Tory / fash institutional capture continues apace.
Fuck Stonewall

I think it took a very heavy toll on her. I have a great deal of respect for Ruth, and I think her force of will was maybe more important than any of us (her included) realised.
