The toxic working environments to which so many women have been exposed for refusing to accept that feelings trump biology disgrace Scotland as does the deafening silence from most politicians in the face of the menacing of women https://t.co/ArQmzepLGC
You might not have noticed, given all the political 💥 but the long awaited report on surrogacy was published this week. But no matter what safeguards you put in place, surrogacy exploits women. My @TheScotsman column, online tonight, in print tomorrow https://t.co/EaxLGTi51N
“Having a police presence when it’s just women speaking would be unheard of. It would be absurd. But because there is a demographic of men who do not like women speaking & saying very clearly that men are not women, we need a police presence.”

In 2021 a member of the SNP was convicted of threatening to rape me. Neither of these men reached out privately nor condemned what had occurred publicly. But a retweet is worth their time. Go figure as to their priorities 🤷♀️ https://t.co/kl8vD4xunM

Today is International Day of Women & Girls in Science.
We are reminded that 509 days ago the Taliban BANNED girls from going to school. Afghanistan remains the ONLY country on earth that bans female education.
Every day that a girl does not go to school is a grave injustice.
Book to be published on the Tavistock scandal. Devastating for the children affected. An opportunity to reflect and pause current practice and legislation. @scotgov can do the right thing and protect children. https://t.co/PPchyfOOi2
This is one of the most important documents to emerge on the subject of prisons.

It’s time to admit that feminist criticisms of self-ID & the #GRRBill were right, eat some humble pie & sort this mess out before it does any more damage to the reputation of our party, parliament & the cause of Scotland’s independence

It feels as though something has gone awry in the most basic aspects of policy development in the Scottish government (and very possibly other governments, but this is the one that I'm closest to and used to work in and know best). /
@sueveneer Too late. This is what you voted for. You were told and chose to ignore reality and womens rights. We dont think Sturgeon will be only casualty so
