The media really should not let the CEO of Mermaids get away with shamelessly claiming that they haven't and don't advocate for a medical pathway. They continue to publish medical disinformation on their website, among other things.

This 💯. One day I will tell the full story of just how many (mainly heterosexual) men took this issue as carte blanche to literally shout at me in my place of work. So many women have been subject to bullying & harassment as a result of this scandal.

Great 🧵. I think what annoys & hurts so much is the aggressive way in which Stonewall pursued apostate lesbians in public life who dared voice our legitimate concerns about the damage their new money spinning ideology risked particularly to LGB young people.

Overdue and welcome. The fact 6 out of 7 adult clinics obstructed a study to understand outcomes for gender questioning children treated by NHS raises *serious* alarm bells

Scotland’s only NHS gender identity clinic is facing growing pressure to close following publication of a review which found its medical ethos was based on “remarkably weak evidence”.

Rishi Sunak faces a cabinet revolt over leaving the ECHR thus illustrating the weakness of his position. However the fact that a British PM is putting this on the table again should concern all who care about across the U.K.

The findings of the review have utterly vindicated the concerns articulated by my friends at LGB Alliance. Politicians who called them a “hate group” should hang their heads in shame & apply themselves to reading the findings of this important report.

The review concludes that for most young people a medical pathway will not be the best way to manage their gender-related distress & that the use of puberty blockers for such children is not safe. NHS Scotland must take heed.

Jo’s comment reflects the frustration of many women present yesterday at the manner in which the event was policed. Any woman with a concern should email her MSP as policing is a devolved matter.

I’d like to know what is going on here and why the policeman seems to be pushing the woman involved back. If anyone knows the woman involved in the incident can they please ask them & any witnesses to get in touch with me. Thank you

The SNP, 90 years old today, was founded by intellectuals, artists & thinkers, many of them unsung women. We have a proud history of women standing up for women including Winnie & Margo. I’m proud of that history & will strive to continue that tradition.

Hey @qmuniversity, are your gender-critical female students safe with this angry man in charge of 'leadership' and 'communication'?
