In Scotland, @JoanMcAlpine's committee assessed realms of evidence and concluded that the sex question should be binary and on a legal basis. The authorities chose to fight this. Why? We really need to know who dictates policy. Our gov? the Law? or ...
This is powerfully said. It is also so rare to hear a man listing those statistics about violence and to say that it is on men to solve. Thank you. https://t.co/pC1apM...
Thank you @murdo_fraser "A dangerous and illiberal bill that does not properly protect women" https://t.co/e7ySCf...
Absolutely, Joan, everyone should condemn the horrible abuse sent to @joannaccherry.. Drink is no excuse. Women face these horrible threats too much. The fear it creates can blight lives. https://t.co/JMQfZu...

Thank you @JeanFind. I'm aghast that he tried to misrepresent you, although it is not the first time. His #HateCrimeBill has passed, it is incredible that he continues to be so dishonest in the promotion of it. https://t.co/GmpCeD...
