Huge applause for @flagasso members for the incredible organisation of the #EGPAParis2018 conference. However, absolute SHOCK in the room when it was announced that our hosts, and new French friends, are NOT being allowed to march in uniform at tomorrow's Paris Pride pic.twitter.com/h8JdPxcIoG

Hugely grateful to these two people, Tracy O'Hara + Pete Rigby, without whom I wouldn't be at #EGPAParis2018. The national police network in the UK, @LGBTpoliceuk, is vital in bringing all 42 + @BTP & @nuclearpolice UK police forces together: there's strength in our unity.pic.twitter.com/C84KdwZR9V

It’s a beautiful day at the #EGPAParis2018 Conference. Representing @stonewalluk and listening to LGBT police share best practices across Europe.pic.twitter.com/U7rDV1v9aA

The UK's own @bee_baileys telling the #EGPAParis2018 the struggles coming to terms with self identity. We were all reminded to #JustAsk #NeverAssume. By asking how a person would like to be addressed goes a long way to get it right and build confidence. #ProudToBeYourFriendpic.twitter.com/7PfLjpFLow – bij En ville à Paris

Now hearing about the @Homocop1 project! #EGPAParis2018 @lgbtpoliceeu @TorontoPolice @CPEU_TPS @TPSRydzik @DeputyPeterYuen @LGBTQ911pic.twitter.com/2XtoTeRH09

Listening to @bee_baileys animated and engaging account of her journey. We don’t choose our tick boxes 2key points #DontAssume & #MayIAsk re #trans issues. Don’t be frightened to ask Q’s at appropriate times. Q’s are good if they come from a good place. #EGPAParis2018 pic.twitter.com/uWPQUzYN00

@LGBTpoliceuk @lgbtpoliceeu @bee_baileys @BTPDiversity Bee Bailey from Gloucestershire now speaking about her journey and Trans Awareness with the message 'Don't Assume' at the European LGB&T Policing Conference in Paris #EGPAParis2018 pic.twitter.com/3y7JT4Lxzb

Our host @AlexTaylorNews interrupts the speakers to ask "whether the issue of trans inclusion, understanding and support really lies with just the police services? Surely it's a wider cultural change that is needed in society?" #EGPAParis2018 pic.twitter.com/neYepk6l5d
