I wish they didn't add the call to vote at the end. I hate how the usual suspects use this as ammo to get their charity status revoked. I'm not too well versed in the laws/rules for charity orgs, but people say they aren't allowed to do political campaigning. Could this have consequences for LGBA or are the TRAs just spouting one-sided nonsense again?

It is just a vote icon, it doesn’t actually say who to vote for or even voting at all.

I saw people mention upcoming elections in Scotland and a connection could be construed somehow... anyway, I don't even see how charity orgs can be absolutely apolitical. Aren't trans orgs aggressively commenting on politics and laws all the time? And who could forget the time Mermaids tried to pin trans deaths on JK Rowling. This didn't affect their charity status either, so if a non-specific call to vote somehow gets LGBA in trouble I don't even know anymore.
