Jonny Best: “Queer was decidedly ours and no-one else’s, a vital shot of ‘fuck you’ adrenalin into the bloodstream of polite, assimilationist, ‘please-may-we’ activism.”

I don’t want to be called queer. I know as well as anyone else the sting that queer delivers when used as a homophobic slur. Here at Lesbian and Gay News, queer has been given a good kicking – and it’s a bugbear over at the LGB Alliance too. I respect the anger that many …

Professional Judy: “Given the mob’s reaction to Alex he must have done something truly hateful to attract their wrath? Well no actually, he simply wore a T-shirt and beanie hat with LGB Alliance’s logo on it. That’s it.”

Debbie Hayton: “Transsexuals need to make it clear that angry mobs – on the streets or on social media – do not act in our name. What happened in Manchester was despicable, and we condemn it absolutely.”

The shameful treatment of Alexander Bramham at a Pride event in Manchester on Saturday ought to have been a wake-up call to everyone. Bramham – a gay man – had to be escorted by police away from a baying mob. But their robotic chanting should ring alarm bells among transsexuals. “Trans rights matter”, or “trans …

L’automne est à la porte, mais ce n’est pas le moment de cesser de nager, si possible dans une rivière, un lac, la mer ou l’océan.

Feminism for Women: Julie Bindel’s blistering critique of patriarchy, reviewed by Claire Heuchan

I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect when I opened Feminism for Women: The Real Route to Liberation. While I have boundless respect for Julie Bindel, and consider her a dear friend, we don’t always see eye to eye. We’ve clashed over the term ‘Karen’, fallen out over a feminist event, and will no doubt …
