There is a petition on the UK Parliament website to legally recognise nonbinary as a gender – which would include an X marker on UK passports for nonbinary people. -

The bigger question is: …why bother that hard? I'm not saying people shouldn't sign it, but also let's not kid ourselves: This isn't at all binding, it almost certainly won't get considered by the full house, and even if it was there are absolutely zero viable routes to pass that legislation.

Hence you can't generally use electoral registration in things like Right To Work contexts, it doesn't in and of itself demonstrate a whole lot of anything outside of some nebulous idea you might exist.

Imagine nuking the brand “Microsoft Office”.@danirabbit like seriously we wonder why people fall for scams and such but MS has been actively working to ensure nobody has a clue what arguably their primary consumer product is actually called.
Practically begging for people to hand over their details/money to anything that looks half plausible, because honestly half of them are probably more believable than actual MS.

Imagine nuking the brand “Microsoft Office”.@danirabbit they've been doing it for a couple years now, in fact I think the slow death predates the killing of Twitter.
First they were leaning hard into the 365, but still as Office 365, then it became more O365, started flirting with Microsoft 365 or M365, and on and on it has gone.
Think it was the middle of last year that the mobile app suddenly became M365 Copilot, or should I say M365 Copil… — yes really, it's ellipsised on AFAIK default launcher settings. They care that much.
