National @PoliceChiefs guidance allowing transgender males to strip search women temporarily withdrawn. @SexMattersOrg @fairplaywomen @WomensRightsNet call on @CPhilpOfficial to get this right: GRC is not a pass to search women.

Just as the GIDS is being shut down, so too should the school propaganda pipeline promoting gender identity. There should be an investigation of Stonewall, Gendered Intelligence, Mermaids and they should be out of schools. The GIDS problem cannot be solved by the NHS alone.

These flags and signs on shop doors are not simple signals of welcome. What they say is if you are sex realist you are not welcome here. You are a second class-citizen. You should feel uncomfortable and on edge.

Can you imagine the corporate culture in which this gets signed off? Someone thinks it is a good idea and then every level of management that might be expected to say "no" waves it through because they are terrified of the "transphobia" finger pointing at them.

I lost my job for saying men cant be women so I sued my employer. Me in @Newsweek

'I Lost My Job for Saying Males Aren't Women. So I Sued My Employer'

When I read J.K. Rowling's July 6 tweet calling me a warrior, I started to cry.

I gave a talk to the sixth form of a girls school the other day. The girls asked good questions. They listened. Some clearly disagreed. No one cried or stormed out the room. I've heard it started some interesting conversations. 😊

"There will always be places where it is reasonable for biological women only to have access" Lets make a list: - female showers - female dorms & hostels - female changing rooms - female toilets - women's prisons - women's refuges - women's counselling groups - women's orgs

Responsible politics isn't about doing what's easy. It’s about doing what's right. That's why Labour will act where the Conservatives have failed by modernising, reforming and simplifying the outdated gender recognition law. Here's how ⤵️ 🧵

I understand that. But we allowed it to happen. In my case because I had no idea such things could be done to young, vulnerable people. I feel ashamed and angry. It must be stopped.

"With glossy red hair and a plunging neckline, Rowling out-glammed them all, even as the poses got sloppier with each bottle of wine." Can you imagine writing this sentence about this picture ...? Can you imagine writing it about a group of male dissidents?

Amongst all the joy today I heard heartbreaking stories - girls being transed in school, women in prison being forced to share with fully intact males. Lots of people told me how "Forstater" has helped them at work. We must keep speaking up.

No one, but no one thought the Equality Act was giving men the right to play women's rugby. Stonewall's idea of "inclusive" is that women don't count. I hope this gets to court

Next tell me what I did to deserve it. Tell me what Allison Bailey did. Tell me what Kathleen Stock did. Tell me what Kate Scottow did. Tell me what Venice Allan did. Tell me what JK Rowling did What happened to us was predictable. Women who challenge this get punished.

In case you are wondering, Post Office was a member of Stonewall Champions and Workplace Equality Index. I don't think these virtue signalling schemes help organisations focus on integrity, compliance and value.

How low can this movement go? A man who has a thing for nipple clamps making a baby suck on his nipples? A man urging a crowd of people to punch TERFs in the face? The slippery slope of giving away protection of women and children because a man wants something does not stop.

So apparently the bad thing is not when a children's charity employs a man whose pornographic image is posted on Twitter, but when women raise the 🚨 and share the image
