Trans rights are protected by 2004 GRA & 2010 Eq Act but gender identity absolutists have now upped the stakes wanting self ID as in draft Scot law. They don’t believe in biological sex & want no sex on birth certificate. Plse interview Prof Wintemute of Kings Coll, Ldn. Thanks.
RT @bbcnickrobinson: It now seems @NicolaSturgeon agrees that a man called Andrew who raped two women cannot serve a prison sentence in a women’s prison simply because “she” now identifies…

RT @mattholehouse: News to me, at least. There was a full deal text done on Erasmus, and personally nixed “at the very last minute” by Johnson. A case of his personal decision to build a politically much narrower Brexit than could easily have been the case.
