25.01.2022 Feathery hats and headpieces are a winner in our eyes!

25.01.2022 This evening, Alex Greenwich MP put up a motion to the NSW Legislative Assembly in support of trans and gender diverse communities. The Motion passed unanimousl...y with speakers from the Government, Labor, and the Greens. It's good to have the NSW Parliament affirm what we already know-- trans and gender diverse people are valid and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. Read Alex's speech and more about it here: https://www.alexgreenwich.com/support_for_trans_and_gender_
