@UKLabour @Keir_Starmer @AnnelieseDodds please take note of this UN intervention. Safeguard 2010 Equality Act.
RT @VictoriaPeckham: This is an important intervention. Will the Scottish government ignore UN concerns about how its gender reform bill will allow male sexual predators to endanger women & children? How can @ScottishLabour just vote it thru? I’ve never witnessed such irresponsible policy making.

RT @VictoriaPeckham: Even the NYT wrote about it before The Guardian. Meanwhile, female Guardian writers are bullied, ostracised & censored, whilst male columnists are too cowardly to support them publicly. And executives wring their hands. A total disgrace to British journalism.

RT @VictoriaPeckham: No disrespect to @ameliagentleman, a superb journalist, but this comes years late. The Cass interim report is published, books written, the Tavistock shut down.
