20% of all recorded crimes is male violence against women and girls: In the home, online, in the streets, at school, work, in the nursing home. Done by husbands, boyfriends, strangers, uncles, teachers, brothers, sons, dates, priests - it’s systemic. express.co.uk/news/politics/…

Agree entirely. And women's 'profound upset' isn't rooted in hate, it's rooted at least in part by a sense of colossal betrayal. Of both our foremothers who fought for our rights, many of which were won *in living memory*, of our needs in the present, and of the language, laws,

It is Mèl Little Lotte J.K. Rowling Kellie-Jay Keen Keir Starmer If the Metropolitan Police believed those men to be women they’d have arrested them for public indecency without hesitation.

Great piece on BBC Woman's Hour⁩’s dread of causing offence to men who self-define as women and who are disinclined to adhere to the law. When did the @bbc decide that supporting men with contempt for women’s rights - and the law - was a core task? womensrights.network/post/what-we-l…

It seems that people can simultaneously believe that asking a woman if she's in the correct changing room is an appalling invasion of privacy, yet forcing the same woman to undress with male adults is not.

Sam Ghali, M.D. Women are underdiagnosed and undertreated for cardiovascular disease despite it being the leading cause of death. We are 10% less likely to have pain levels assessed upon arriving at a hospital and wait 30 minutes longer to be acknowledged by nurses or doctors which can cause

It’s very telling that the response by so many to now being told that women’s things are for women only, is to get rid of anything for women at all. This tells us everything about how women are valued. Do let the Barbican know how you feel: [email protected]

I wonder if Kate Nash has written songs about any other type of man she's personally "never felt threatened" by. It'd just be good if she could let all female victims of male violence know which ones she thinks must have done something to deserve it

Girlguiding has appointed another cross-dressing man into a senior position. Youth worker 'Stone', who is also a member of the board at Gendered Intelligence, works in 'inclusion' for Girlguiding. It previously appointed a rifle-wielding 'male dominatrix' as a commissioner

Denise Findlay 💚🤍💜 This is a Masterclass in Moral Evasion. The Cabinet Secretary’s response is a case study in how power hides behind platitudes when confronted with real-world harm. Faced with a direct, vital question what support exists for women and girls who have been harassed, harmed, or

To be clear The fact Helena Kennedy says she is perfectly happy stripping off to her bra & knickers in front of male colleagues is **absolutely not** justification to allow men into female nurses' changing rooms.

Anyone in the bbc, sky, itv explain to us (& all the young girls being pushed aside In their own category) why we have sex categories in the first place? Then why it’s ok to ignore that? Then why we don’t see trans men (females) stealing places from men? Facts behind feelings

My short speech during the Battle of Ideas Festival in October last year. It took 8 months to release publicly. I can only imagine why...

Rebecca Paul MP Thank you, Rebecca Paul MP. These men were placed on E Wing for shared association with women so they could learn how to mimic women and satisfy their own need for validation. I am a retired prison governor and have vast experience of dealing with women traumatised by the mere

Brilliant article (link in reply) by Susanna Rustin on how values portrayed as ‘progressive’ are anything but. This is exactly right:

Friend just sent me this. From The Times Law. Painfully accurate. As he said: 'Doubt they would have published this a year ago.'

🖊️I wrote in support of sex-based rights and the Equality Act - and against the idea that younger people who value gender identity over biology are 'progressive' (link follows)

The misrepresentation in certain sections of the media of what the UK Supreme Court's recent ruling actually means is outrageous. The ruling clarified that women and girls have sex-based rights under British law, and that those rights haven't changed since women gained them.

"Imagine a law that allowed white people to declare they are black or adults to declare they are children. There would rightly be uproar. Yet women are supposed to accept that any man can say he's a woman, or be called a bigot." Excellent letter in today's Sunday Independent
