## Resource

Edinburgh’s Pride this year isn’t just celebration—it’s resistance. As trans rights face mounting threats, including new government guidance seen as discriminatory, Green councillors are pushing back with a formal motion to condemn the policy and restore protections. Amid rising UK race riots and deepening social fractures, the city’s September by-elections offer a vital moment for voters to demand inclusion, safety, and a future where diversity isn’t just tolerated—it’s celebrated.
