A new organization recently announced by British barrister Allison Bailey that has unified with Anti-trans Hate Group Woman’s Place UK and postured itself to eliminate transgender women from equality activism in the name of feminism contributing to an increasingly hostile climate that has seen violent hate crimes against trans individuals spike more than 80% in the last year across the country and doubling across England and Wales.

Bailey introduced the formation of the organization via twitter last week calling it a “Historic moment.”

Across the United Kingdom, there has been a growing movement by self described “Radfems” or “Gender Critics” that has resulted in a staggering increase in online harassment and a significant push to distribute misinformation about transgender women, most notably accusing a fictitious Trans Lobby of advocating child abuse, threatening the safety of cisgender women and promoting lesbian erasure by virtue of the fact that some trans women identify their sexual orientation as lesbian.
