🚨A violent transgender pedophile was arrested in Hawley, Minnesota, on June 1 after being found in possession of firearms and threatening to murder police officers and their families.
Daniel Patrick Benz, also known as Danielle Marie Whitebird, has a long history of violent crime, including the sexual abuse of a child.
He was previously held in a women's prison where he was accused of sexually harassing female inmates, but was released in 2024.
Local news described Benz as a "woman" in reports on his recent arrest.
National Maternity Advisor @MichelleWelshMP tells @SkySarahJane: 'Women and babies are being systematically failed, those working on the front line are being systematically failed and unless we make some big changes, that will continue'

'It is more dangerous to give birth in the UK today than it was in 1985. That's hard to believe, isn't it?'

➡️Serial upskirter, Hani Mustafa, 45, caught filming under a woman's dress on a London underground escalator, has walked free.
Mustafa had a previous caution and more upskirting videos on his phone.
Defence said he'd been diagnosed with depression and compulsive sexual behavior, and had booked himself in for "therapy". 🙄
If only he'd posted a spicy tweet instead of multiple violations of women over years...
Classic UK two tier justice 🇬🇧
You can read the piece here - he has caricatured/misrepresented my arguments (and I'm sure Julie's too) in order to suit his. Worst kind of shoddy straw-manning (or in this case, straw-womanning😉)

No Caspar, a single woman having a baby by herself does NOT present same red flags as a man renting a woman's womb to have a baby by himself, with the intention of denying that baby their mother. And no, the fact some women abuse children does not mean women pose same risk to children as men.
Classic man-who-finds-safeguarding-hurty from Caspar Salmon, who ofc misrepresents my argument. Says he recognises men pose a greater risk to children but clearly doesn't like the implications (here, that surrogacy should look more like adoption in terms of welfare checks).
It turns out some in the Party are really angry about these headlines. Those in @LibDemWomen in particular. @LibVoice4Women is less concerned about headlines and more concerned about people trying to remove women's rights. We will continue to stand up. https://t.co/XvEf0MrJte
It's more dangerous giving birth now than it was 40 years ago, and the number of mothers suffering severe injuries is on the rise.
Ahead of key reports into the state of maternity care, @skysarahjane
joins mothers and workers in a labour ward to get their experiences

Sky News is highlighting the state of maternity care in the UK.
Watch a special edition of The UK Tonight, live from a labour ward, at 8pm.
Info for @edballs:
- The @EHRC Code of Practice is not about workplaces
- Mixed-sex only changing rooms in workplaces are not lawful. Workplaces must have sufficient workplace facilities which are either single-sex or single-user (Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regs 1992)
The full interview with Bethany and Lisa on Good Morning Britain with Ed Balls and Susanna Reid.
They made it to London late last night after major issues with the trains and hours of delays after a long shift.
This is what frontline NHS nurses are having to go through to have their voices heard and why @jamesmurray_ldn must meet with them this month

How many women have lost their livelihoods, had to defend themselves in a court of law, been arrested/interviewed under caution or accused of being a bigot, nazi, fascist & worse for saying exactly the same thing as the new Health Secretary @jamesmurray_ldn
Childline counselling sessions for children who think they're the opposite sex are up by 20%.
Publishing the figures at the start of Pride Month and using the term "coming out" reveals that Childline views this as just the same as being gay. It's not.

From @ITVNews on James Murray - this is straight and fair. Really nice to see this.
‘Health Secretary James Murray: I would no longer say trans women are women’ https://t.co/2j18vaHXw6
Modern day ‘gender’ (once interchangeable for sex) has been hijacked to mean ridiculous narrow stereotypes. Used by middle aged men with a fetish or very often vulnerable young people, many gay or autistic, who will be the real long term victims. Do fact check on this. Also check MOJ figures on sex offenders, whilst you’re at it. The biggest shame of this ideology is the building back of regressive stereotypes that previous generations worked so hard to move away from. It’s why women must fight for the word sex to be implemented in all spaces & legislation where our reality & biology matters. And stat gathering absolutely must remained around reality otherwise stats become useless. The aim is the total destruction of sex based rights & opportunities, which will only deprive females. It’s constantly females that pay dearly in sport or safeguarding. Its does not go both ways. It’s why it’s 100% a men’s rights movement peddled by men who don’t care what women are losing. And who utterly despise the women who tell them No. The personal abuse, name calling & deliberate attacks on work has been extraordinary. Using handmaidens daft enough or naive enough to be happy to place themselves second to a few entitled men’s feelings. Once gone.. it will be so hard to get back those rights! Please think logically & critically where this will lead. Self Id would be impossible to police. A piece of paper doesn’t change your sex. We can be kind with individuality without squashing female rights. No trans identifying person has any less rights than the next person, males just don’t get female ones too. Dads, brothers, sons we also need you to speak up.
Susanna Rustin @SusannaRustin points out that the EHRC guidance matters for prisons, refuges, rape crisis centres, lesbian groups, women’s health centres and sports. Could this be a breakthrough for @guardian ?

Great to hear James Murray accept sex and gender are different and that he would no longer say “trans women are women” (a phrase underpinned by the belief men should be able to self-identify into female facilities and services). Thanks to @JustinOnWeb for asking this.
Thank you @Daniel_J_Martin. "Sir Ed’s statement drew stinging criticism from Dr Zoe Hollowood.
“Polling consistently shows that Lib Dem voters and members believe single-sex spaces should be protected based on biological sex,” she said. “Ignoring this reality is a betrayal to women everywhere, including in our own party.”" https://t.co/tyVccyqnOL
