Just had a #Labour canvasser at my doorstep. First time somebody has confirmed I was one of the registered voters before talking to me...

I said I would keep an eye on constituency-level polling (not on the bookies, that's far too easy to manipulate) and pick the party most likely to beat Reform.

She asked how I'd vote if that wasn't a consideration, and I told her that I'd vote #GreenParty. Specifically I told her that while I'm prepared to give Labour a little slack on turning round the economy, Starmer and Streeting are going out of their way to hurt #trans people, including my friends and family.

She said there are lots of trans allies in the Labour party, and I said that doesn't matter if they can't achieve anything - I've heard the same line from Lib Dems and others in the past. She agreed with me and would feed it back.

A polite doorstep conversation, doing my bit for democracy and for trans rights.
