Nothing says 'oppressed minority' like publicly shaming service workers because they aren't meeting your narcissistic need for constant validation.

Our book about how women stood up to the Scottish civic and political establishment, and changed the course of history, just got even more topical. Available from 30 May - ask your candidates about the lessons from - and for - Scotland🤓

India blocked me when I called out some dubious legal analysis but I just want to say that Akua Reindorf is an exceptional lawyer and a true professional. She will not respond to this crap but should not be attacked like this for doing her job.

Kemi Badenoch has vowed she will “never stop defending” the rights of women after receiving letters and cards from rape victims urging her to continue.

The equalities minister said the letters showed why “we must defend single-sex spaces..' telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…

These are excellent election asks. Some of these will not be applicable to Scotland (depending on whether they are devolved or reserved) but we agree wholeheartedly and all candidates should commit to them!

Edinburgh Academics for Academic Freedom Julie Bindel Simon Fanshawe FairPlayForWomen For contrast: in 2016, students mobilised to find a way to remove Magdalen Berns' right to stand in EUSA elections.

Her manifesto, which pledged to bring 'safe space' policy in line w EA2010, was apparently in violation of the policy.

Commenter below currently works for EUSA.

Statement which shows not all rape crisis centres are the same when it comes to delivery of single sex services, There’s an obvious divide in the sector. MurrayBlackburnMackenzie blog on this is fascinating

RCS has distanced itself from ERCC.

But the “extreme gender identity belief” of self-ID is the official position of RCS.

Urgent action is needed to restore trust in the sector 👇

This event was promoted as following the 'care-full' spaces policy. When Mridul Wadhwa was congratulated on creating a 'TERF-free space', he said 'I'm not sure it is', prompting the audience to turn and look at me. I was there alone. 'Heresy hunt' describes the feeling perfectly.
