The programme for this Saturday’s London BiFest has been unveiled, with a blend of discussion sessions, mixers to help break the ice for newcomers, craft and social space. As last year, it is being held upstairs at the Doggetts Coat and Badge pub on Blackfriars bridge. Find out more at london.bifest.org.

The latest issue of Bi Community News is out, with features on homo/biphobia in football and Stonewall’s latest bi-ignorant report, a short story - the first in the magazine’s history - and regulars like Diary of a Crap Lesbian and the BiMedia* roundup of bisexuality in the press and TV.

A bi group has a stall for the first time at Birmingham Pride, and are determined that they’ll never be forgotten. For that they need YOU!

Are you happy to talk about being bi? To march in the parade under our pink, purple and blue colours? Stick badges on unsuspecting members of the public, or just smile and hand someone a pen so they can sign up for the Brum Bi group email list at the bi stall?

They need volunteers between 10am and 9pm on Saturday 24th May, for as long or as short a part of the day as you can give. See their website and get in touch with them: http://brumbigroup.org.uk/

The website of the Liverpool bisexual group, Mersey Bis, has been updated after a long gap.

The sad news is that it reports that the group is wound up, and they are encouraging anyone from Merseyside and surrounding areas who would have been interested in the group to go along to the Manchester bisexual social-support group instead.

Once again Stonewall, Britain’s biggest gay equality lobbying group, has published a report which makes sweeping recommendations about the need to effect change for lesbians and gay men without touching on similar challenges faced by bisexuals.

The survey interviewed more than 1,600 lesbian, gay and bisexual people - yet the analysis and recommendations are almost exclusively about lesbians and gay men, with a bizarre exception for the Judicial Studies Board.

What can it mean? Did none of the 1,600 admit to being bi? And if so have Stonewall a plan for working out where the bisexuals are hiding? Does the detailed analysis of the polling show that bisexuals encountered no prejudice or discrimination except when up in court?

Those curious bisexual types at bimedia.org would like to know.
