The Trans Pride event in Brighton over the weekend had the full support of the City Council and Sussex Police. Representatives of the Greens, Conservatives and Labour Party were on hand to give speeches, and the Police had a stall at the event. So naturally the local media covered the event. But The Argus couldn’t resist sending a message about just what they thought of such an event. So they reported it as a footnote to an article about a dog show.

So now we know. Trans people are not just less than human. They are below dogs in the pecking order as well.

Sarah has written them a letter.

Update: The Argus has posted an apology and proper report on their website. Well done all round.
