We do. We also know that this totally illogical argument has been flung at us a few times in the last 24 hours. We also are worried by the women who are apparently fine with misogyny. Opposing sexism is not "stoking fear and ignorance" and it is ...

This is a good point. We note that people like Paisley are telling @thesnp that trans people should set the definition of transphobia. So can women set the definition of sexism (and indeed, woman)? National poll? https://t.co/HbNhPA...

OK, nice tweet time! We have been missing all you lovely people and, as we can't have meetings, we'd like to have some online ones - hopefully to coincide with the week of #IWD2021. We'd love ideas for topics & speakers. ...

Andrew, the troll who went after @Flashmaggie, thinks that pointing out that he is an anon account means we think he is part of Qanon. Anon - abbreviation of anonymous. Do they really teach the children nothing? https://t.co/vzHTr1...

We assume you read the report on the Tavistock @AmnestyUK? The one that deemed it inadequate? We agree children should get the highest quality of care - you, however, are backing those providing inadequate care. https://t.co/B82BKr...

We like to balance things, politically. Here is one for our Labour followers who will be voting for a new leader. You will note who is not mentioned as being "at the heart" of a campaign on period poverty. This reads rather like Onion headline, ...
