Bristol’s Oldest LGBTQ+ Venue Launches Its Own Beer, Queer

The Good Law Project, a progressive legal campaign group, says that British broadcast and media regulator OFCOM is not meeting its role profile in stopping biased hate speech. In particular, they say that a small talk TV channel called Talk TV is routinely putting out misinformation about transgender people, without challenge, or balance in reporting. In a press release, the Good Law Project appeal for funds. They say "Last year, 21,000 people complained to Ofcom over transphobia on TalkTV. Thanks to your complaints, Ofcom committed to investigate one programme. But the regulator refused to open investigations into the other 10 programmes that broadcast hate and misinformation.
Ofcom may not be listening, but we are. We're taking Ofcom and your complaint to the High Court.
Together we can force Ofcom to do its job. Together we can stop this flood of hate and misinformation. Will you help carry on the fight?
