RT @fasc1nate: In the 1880s, the Harvard Observatory director was frustrated with his staff, and would say "My Scottish maid could do better!" So, he hired his Scottish maid. Williamina Fleming, who discovered tens of thousands of stars and more. https://www.historydefined.net/williamina-fleming/

Thank you for being that independent, sane, uncompromised voice taking on so much of the public/ private establishment to ensure we roll back an ideology that wants to erase women and is also deeply homophobic. Thanks also to @SexMattersOrg @HJoyceGender @bindelj @Docstockk

Dear Peter, why, as a gay man, do you go along with a homophobic gender identity ideology that does not believe in biological sex ? Trans people are already protected under 2004 GRA & 2010 Equality Act. Self ID is a no no which conflicts with women’s rights.

RT @claremulley: Among those murdered in the Holocaust were 20,000 Hungarian Jews, shot on the banks of the Danube, having been forced to remove their shoes. The shoes were deemed to hold value. Sculptor Gyula Pauer’s monument is composed of 60 pairs of shoes in iron. #HolocaustMemorialDay

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.

Thank you Debbie.
RT @DebbieHayton: Trans rights have been brought into total disrepute by the folly of Sturgeon's Scottish government.

Any policy that allows people do as they please without ever being challenged will attract those who want to do as they please without being challenged.
