"Queer Harmers"

While working on ideas for subsequent Necroparliaments, I realised that Sunday was International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. With queer necropolitics being a major subject which I have been trying to cover for ages in the series, and LGBTQ+ rights plummeting in the UK, I think it was worth making this a top priority.

For context, Starmer has been pejoratively referred to as 'Queer Harmer' for his attacks on LGBTQ+ rights for opportunistic reasons. But with him potentially outgoing, I wanted to signify that even without Starmer, there's a whole apparatus of institutions and reactionaries ready and willing to pose a threat to the community, especially transgender people.
