RT @SwipeWright: There is another account impersonating me. They haven't tweeted anything yet, but if you could please report @SwiperWright as a fraudulent account, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you! đ
Worth revisiting. This is what we all a burn! https://t.co/ocv1qu...
Apparently 24 is too young to know that molesting an unconscious woman is wrong. But 12 is fine to think you were born in the wrong sex and to take irreversible medication... https://t.co/wzt1iy...
We've asked Colin. Anyone want to offer odds on whether he answers (or blocks)? https://t.co/kYOIYs...
Eileen is a respected Scottish journalist. James, allegedly a journalist, has blocked her for having the temerity to politely tell him he's mistaken. Fragile egos are not generally the stuff of Pulitzer winning reporters. https://t.co/cVceTl...
RT @serialsockthief: Womenâs rights are human rights. Alison Moyet was bending ideas of gender and expression before half the creeps harassing her had even been born. Theyâre going to lose their wee minds when they discover David Bowie, Annie Lennox ...
We have a lot of followers with diverse interests! One for keen ballet dancers in Edinburgh! @RosieKayDance could you share? https://t.co/ObwYgw...

The carriage would give "the impression that men can't help themselves, and that women somehow need to be shut away so that men don't catch a glimpse of female flesh and suddenly find themselves out of control" We agree with @bindelj, it's a bonkers ...
Stonewallâs disgraceful attacks on the EHRC | The Spectator
RT @hightreebud: @ForwomenScot @ShonaRobison @LGBTIScotland @ScottishTrans @Cmacf76 Well, thanks to a #ManFriday action we know exactly what a receptionist would say if "Laura" rocked up to check into the female dorm at a Scottish Youth Hostel. No ...
Stonewallâs disgraceful attacks on the EHRC Excellent article from @TrevorPTweets https://t.co/WZu1c3... via @spectator ...
"Framing this as nasty women not allowing trans people to live their best lives hides what it really is; a misogynist backlash against feminism." https://t.co/uFWmwd... via @spectator ...
We really need answers from those pushing GRA on situations like this. So, @ShonaRobison @LGBTIScotland @ScottishTrans @Cmacf76 where should "Laura" here be jailed? What should the receptionist say when Laura demands access to the women's changing ...

"Critics raised fears that ministers were inappropriately encouraging supportive lobbyists to âamplifyâ the Governmentâs position and âdelegitimiseâ opponents" https://t.co/XcTwvG...
A sad reflection on the current political climate and the abysmal state of public discourse. https://t.co/6BlYR6...
RT @Jebadoo2: "You will get it" What a highly professional and dignified manner for Queen's bloody Counsel (for goodness sake) to adopt. Beneath contempt frankly. https://t.co/uJYSuO...
Another cracking column from @VictoriaPeckham "Labour can shut down members like Laura with Maoist tribunals, but it wonât win without womenâs trust." Time for Labour to find a backbone! https://t.co/kvXJ43...
It seems @HighlandCouncil need urgent legal advice as well as lessons on the incidence of abuse and exclusion of girls such ill-considered policies create. Parent power has been effective in reversing these foolhardy decisions in other schools - we ...
RT @holyroodmandy: âIt becomes clearâŚthat one reason why the Scottish Government has been unable to âconscientiously take into accountâ any criticism of its proposals is that it fundamentally misunderstands the law it is proposing to reform.â ...

"This means that if legislation is introduced soon, the parliament will be faced with compensating for an unfair and unreasonable process, demonstrably biased, in which the government has insulated itself from having to engage with critics or the ...

RT @Pomegranate2021: Karen Ingala Smith, chairman of a charity which campaigns to end violence against women, said that the âtrans lobby are losing their minds because an independent body is doing its job and not rolling over to their behind the ...
Absolutely shocking stuff. @BristolUni allowed a student who advocates VAW to avoid the disciplinary action "after the trans student organised protesters to disrupt the hearings." They them employed the student as a teacher. Women are not safe here! ...
Indeed. The current tactics of those supporting GRAR (as just evidenced by Robertson's Comms director) are a form of gangsterism. https://t.co/R5kDh2...
RT @underaredflag: Checking the numbers of women MSPs and how it's (mostly) been decreasing over time takes about 5 min. Measuring participation of female MSPs might take a bit longer, but if the PO thinks there is an issue - she could just pick more ...
Now the head of Comms for @AngusRobertson is lying about @EHRC @EHRCChair. It seems that there are no depths @theSNP will not plumb to stop their pet project being derailed. Mr Sturrock seems to think they are above the law & above scrutiny - ...
This is an important point. We wonder if charities which are supposed to promote equality are really ready to go this far. In particular, we wonder how far orgs like @EngenderScot, @scotwomensaid & @rapecrisisscot are prepared to go in standing ...
Great thread on that Council of Europe report which smears the UK, despite all the evidence, in order to push an ideological agenda. Embarrassing for @PACE_News and for @BBCNews whose LGBT correspondent seemed to think it had weight. ...
