A new letter has been released in support of the trans community. Created by artist Tom Rasmussen and Tom Mehrtens (Head of Music and Entertainment at SATELLITE414). It comes in the wake of the April 16th court ruling from the Supreme Court which ruled that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex under the Equality Act.
