It’s a bad bill and needs withdrawing & those who care about sex based rights won’t really bother about the reason. Just hope that @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @AnnelieseDodds will have learned not to touch self ID with a barge pole !

Urge all to read Pdt Macron’s speech in Munich. So visionary. UK needs to be echoing these aims. @Keir_Starmer @DavidLammy

Please watch @BankofDave on @netflix good on them supporting this important film. Let’s have more such community banks. If Germany can do it, so can we.

In fairness @Neal_Compass @labourlewis as I read it, @Keir_Starmer is referring to changes made by @UKLabour to root out antisemitism when he says “We are never going back. If you don’t like it, nobody is forcing you to stay”. I am a pluralist like you guys.

RT @GorinMoti: After years of watching various institutions--media outlets, professional societies, universities, medical orgs, etc.--buckle under the slightest pressure from the most unhinged activists, it's refreshing to see this kind of commitment to a core mission. It will spread.

Why no mention of her overseeing violent men in women’s prisons ?
RT @supertanskiii: Nicola Sturgeon was a powerhouse, who led with integrity and strength, especially during Covid. I admire her. It’ll be hard to fill her shoes.
The main reason women are forced from leadership roles they excel at is misogyny. The abuse female leaders or figures face is vitriolic

RT @Womans_Place_UK: We urge Labour and Scottish Labour to take heed from the disastrous political mess in Scotland and consider that those earnestly pushing unwanted and dangerous reforms, may not be reflective of need, equality principles or the electorate.

It is a valid question sadly.
RT @acgrayling: Did Russia purchase the UK's exit from the EU? With corrupt people like Johnson & many other Tories, & Farage, & a constitutional system so easy to manipulate, it was a snitch.

We could all do well to follow the sage advice of the French PM below….democracy is diversity of opinions & respecting everyone. Democracy is holding to the truth. I would add for good measure…stick with the science ….

No. It was provoked by O Jones saying GC people like me have similar views to the KKK.

Quite right David. Time we had an ID card with no more than photo/name/address/number.
RT @DavidHenigUK: I need to know the difference between this and a national ID card system, which has long been seen as an affront to freedom, British values etc

The best arguments on all of the subjects, the better to counter the ideology. Thank you.

No evidence of that. I Have campaigned since mid-80s in favour of gay and trans rights. However, am opposed to gender self ID that would threaten women only spaces and against the erasure of biological women from our language.
RT @Brunners_: @CaroleTongue @OwenJones84 @guardian @SexMattersOrg @HJoyceGender @jk_rowling @RosieDuffield1 @bindelj Of course they do Carole. You only need to look at who turns up at the bloody rallies to see that.
