  Speaker 3: donors in Canada is going. A complete ban on men

  Speaker 3: who've had sex with other men in the last three

  Speaker 3: questions for everyone about the recent anal sex encounters. Things
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: have gotten legal with accusations and explicit ban had just
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: been substituted for an implicit one. Now, health officials say
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: the rusive questions will be gone by the autumn well
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: thanks to a constitutional challenge brought by disease.
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: This disqualification was arbitrary. It felt like it was a
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: group judgment, like anybody from that group is having risky
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: sexual behavior and their disease, and that's why as a
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: group as a whole, not even as you know, based
• 7:21
  Speaker 7: on individual behavior or something they're unable to donate compared
• 7:26
  Speaker 7: to other individuals who might also have risky behaviors.

  Speaker 3: of public single sex spaces in England, Scotland and Wales,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: so the likes of bathrooms and changing rooms comes into
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: force today. Means transgender people should use facilities aligning with
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: the biological sex, which of course is ridiculous that maybe
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: gender neutral options available, but they may well not be.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: Tens of millions of pounds on need to be wasted
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: thanks to this win for the cultural clowns spent on
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: updating these spaces, maintaining them and changing signage, much of
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: it shelled out by councils aka taxpayers money. And that's
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: the cost of Bigger Tree Pride Daily. And a Russian
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: teenager whose passport's got a rainbow cover has been fined
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: a thousand rubles. The nineteen year old's been convicted of

  Speaker 3: displaying extremist symbols. Anything with even the faintest whiff of
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: queerness is deemed as extremists. There she was called after
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: posting a picture on a telegram channel. And here's how
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: utterly pathetic this is a thousand rubles is nothing about
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: nine pounds in the UK or twelve dollars in America.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: Will have a whip round, No time to tell you that.
• 9:00

  Speaker 3: Michigan posted on its Facebook in twenty twenty three saying
• 9:39

• 9:47
  Speaker 3: a Christian because of course she is, thinks she could
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: defend this bigotry, She's also tried suing some people who've complained.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Johnny Johnson Junior is the exec director of Michigan's Department
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: of Civil Rights.
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: Your aid violated the law by denying their services to

  Speaker 8: specific individuals based on sex. In this case, their responded
• 10:08
  Speaker 8: made sure that people in her community and beyond knew
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: her position by publishing comments on social media spelling out
• 10:16
  Speaker 8: the people she would refused to serve and why.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Thanks to CBS Detroit, Geiger has been ordered to remove
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: her anti trans bleetings which she hasn't yet, pay legal fees,
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: and complete civil rights training which I'm sure will be
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: highly effective. She's also got to drop her retaliation lawsuits.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Pride Daily next a nice big slap in the face
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: for LGBTQ plus people from the government of Australia's New

• 10:47
  Speaker 3: commissioned and not expanding hate speech laws to cover sexual
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: orientation and gender identity. The government's been sitting on the

• 10:59
  Speaker 3: account freedom of expression and freedom of religion. Pride Daily
