RT @MForstater: "I simply cannot understand" she says, turning off comments. How about "I would like to try to understand" and invite a meeting? Why hire a CEO who cannot understand simple arguments, and refuses to try ? https://t.co/PK9BWZ...

In July 2019 we filled the QE2 centre with people angry about male inclusion on female sport. We’d fill Wembley stadium in 2022! This isn’t going away. It needs sorting now. @Womans_Place_UK https://t.co/VwxQC0...
