@whtwldbabsdo Sex-selective abortion is unfortunately a sad reality indeed. But that does not confirm or inform that sex is binary . Sex-selective abortion is induced by traditional gender norms. Studies have demonstrated again and again.
@stephenwhittle@ClaireCoutinho Im in admiration of your courage and determination, @stephenwhittle , to keep engaging and pointing towards reason and common sense in a debate that does not seem to have any other aim than hurting people again and again.
NEW: The last polling by @yougov before tomorrow’s crunch vote on assisted dying finds the majority of the public support Kim Leadbeater’s bill by 73% to 16%.
Despite a detailed debate, raising many aspects of the bill, public support hasn’t really shifted.
Important announcement:
We are delighted to confirm that @stephenwhittle has become a Director at TransLucent today.
Stephen transitioned in 1975, founded Press for Change, and was a former President of WPATH.
He was awarded the OBE in 2005.
This is a landmark moment for women’s rights in this country and the most significant change to our abortion law since the 1967 Abortion Act was passed.
Thank you to everyone who has campaigned alongside us.
We did it.
