Press for Change Urge Support for ID Cards

genderqueer | 07.02.2009 12:16 | Social Struggles

The following email is so out of context with the issues we face as trans people, ID Cards won't buy our gender recognition, next 'Gender Spectrum' will be implying that CCTV actually protects us from violence, the ID Card system (like the DNA database) is an utter disgrace on our privacy and civil liberty, they should know better!

Here's the email sent out to PFC activist this morning

-----------------------------------------------------

Gender Spectrum have worked extensively on ID Cards and their potential effects upon trans people throughout all stages of transition and our subsequent lives. I would ask readers to consider supporting them in their efforts to ensure fair treatment for all trans people.

Best wishes,

Angela Clayton
Vice President, Press for Change

That email just asks people to support Gender Spectrum, where do they say they support ID cards?
