LGB Alliance

[thatdamnwoman]

Wouldn't it be great if everyone who hasn't already dug deep could get out their spades and help the LGB Alliance reach their target this weekend? They're close.

Once they've raised enough for an office and a computer and a person to get things started they can begin the job of toppling the transgender / gender edifice for real. Simon Fanshawe and Allison Bailey have already made a great start.

I've donated - might be worthwhile posting a link here for those (like me) a little lazy?

If a link is posted the monitors would ensure that the thread gets pulled.

It can easily be found via Google.

It's worth reading the comments on the Just Giving page, they're very moving.

I have already dug for this cause, but I am so happy that an organisation like this exists that I will dig a little deeper.

It would be great to be able to set up a monthly contributution.

I will fill in a couple of holes this evening both this one and the Susan Evans and Mrs A one.

Thanks for the update. I'd been waiting to hear it was time to get my spade out.

I've dug too.

Thank you for posting this. It reminded me to contribute.

94% and £1,490 to go!

Thank you for the reminder.
I also thought LGBA was removed from JustGiving for 'phobia so it's great to see it back up and running.

The homophobes managed to get it removed for a bit, but not for long

It says they plan to launch officially in January 2020. Will be interesting to see what happens.

They’re up to 95% .

I hope it actively encourages members. Stonewall does not even have a membership, a charity controlled by trustees, it represents only them and their corporate donors.

Another little shovelful from here...

Thank you for the reminder.

All the 1984 nonsense from Surrey Pride and go makes this extreme agent of T*RF want to dig deeper - in more ways than one.

So thank you.

On it now

Small shovel from me

Hey hey - we are getting there... bump for more!

A little bit from me

I would give them some money but there’s just no registed address for them, no registration as a charity or as a company and no leadership, just some twitter page... what’s stopping them from running off with the money or just closing down? (Just look at poise who bright camera equipment and the person who brought a mattress with crowdfunding that was meant for fighting for women’s and children’s rights)

Homophobes on Twitter are making a last-ditch attempt to shut the crowdfunder down. Please report this account for homophobia & if you can, keep digging!

Ohyesthatgc, there's always an element of trust with crowdfunding and if you don't feel confident, don't donate. Hold onto your money until you feel sufficient structures have been put in place to reassure you.
My personal view is that given the track record of the names associated with this project (Simon Fanshawe in particular) I don't have much to worry about, but I am sure they would be just as happy to receive your donation further down the line once they can be clearer about what it will be spent on.

My understanding is that they're looking for this relatively modest amount at this point so that they can set up an organisation properly.
