[Legal Feminist @legalfeminist]

Excellent.

Now let’s start using accurate language in court.

[TransgenderTrend @Transgendertrd]

The motion being voted on by @TheBMA today.

It's a motion that discredits doctors and the medical profession.

Publicly disavowing research and evidence should instantly disqualify you from being a doctor.

[Sam @wundt_vil]

I think one of the most shocking things about the Cameron Downing situation is that he was a service user of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre. Did that mean he had access to vulnerable women? Given what we know about him now, this is another vile failure of the LGBTYS accredited ERCC

[Sonya Douglas @SonyaDouglas]

When a rape crisis centre for women is taken over by a crossdressing man, it’s liable to attract dangerous predators
That’s where @EdinRapeCrisis is now
A playground for vile abusers and very far from fit for purpose
#MridulMustGo but so must the lot of them

[Maya Forstater @MForstater]

Met @metpoliceuk fails to identify a single burglary suspect in more than 150 neighbourhoods for three years.

But they put resources into bringing me in for a tweet.

[Dr. Jane Clare Jones @janeclarejones]

People need to start to understand that one main reason this debate got so toxic is that it involves a political ideology that licenses abusive behaviour towards women and claims it is justice.

And if you license abusive behaviour then abusive people will use it to be abusive.

[LWD Cymru @LWDCymru23]

Diolch @WRNWales for live tweeting this event, & good work @JackMerched.

Given the @WelshGovernment's blinkered drive towards self ID this outcome was entirely predictable.

Fortunately there are many of us in Wales prepared to stand our ground & hold the line.

Hello everyone, This afternoon, the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) informed the parties that the judgment in my appeal against Stonewall (Bailey v Stonewall & Garden Court Chambers) will be handed down within the next week.

[Wales-Women’s Rights Network 💜🤍💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @WRNWales]

We don’t know if ANYONE is left at the #Senedd today, but we are here at least!

We’ll be listening to the debate on the Electoral Candidates Lists Bill.
Will Members support or reject it?
Either way, it’s looking like being kicked into the long grass to 2030.

[Merched Cymru @MerchedCymru]

Absolutely. We applaud @wesstreeting 's commitment to following the evidence and hope that this approach will be replicated in Wales. We cannot play fast and loose with the long term physical and mental health of distressed children and young people.

[Ginny Fenwick 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ♀️ @VirginiaFenwic4]

What is it with @WelshLabour and @Plaid_Cymru MSs that ignore the fact that the Senedd (Electoral Candidate Lists) Bill is deeply flawed? Their insistence that men can self-ID into the 50% quota without repercussions does nothing to elevate women in the Senedd. #SexNotGender

[Welsh Women Speak Out 📣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💪🦕 @RhywFenyw]

Interesting article about a travesty of a Bill, with a revealing closing sentence from @ShiptonMartin.

"Supporters of trans rights believe that passing the Bill would represent a significant step forward in their campaign for true equality." #SexNotGender https://t.co/Tpu7KGoGuL

[Welsh Women Speak Out 📣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💪🦕 @RhywFenyw]

This blog is rather good. We've had equal representation before.

".. all parties should commit to meaningful, targeted & measurable actions to address the systemic causes for women’s under-representation in politics both at party & at Government level."> https://t.co/IsEN5Xs8R4

[Merched Cymru @MerchedCymru]

Tomorrow, Senedd Members will vote on whether to accept the general principles of the Electoral Candidate List Bill, which would impose a statutory 'gender' quota on the new electoral system being introduced. 1/

[Wales-Women’s Rights Network 💜🤍💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @WRNWales]

The Reform Bill Committee recommends referral to the Supreme Court.
This Bill is a shocking waste of public money and will compromise the reputation of Welsh Government and devolution.
Members of the Senedd can now accept this - or reject it.
We invite them to reject it.

[Merched Cymru @MerchedCymru]

Very comprehensive letter from sisters in @WRNWales about why the Electoral Candidate Lists Bill should be rejected.

[Wales-Women’s Rights Network 💜🤍💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @WRNWales]

The @WelshGovernment DO NOT have the legislative competence to introduce this Bill.
It relates to a reserved matter and modifies the law on that matter.
Their @yLlywydd stated this, as have various legal representatives.

Llythyr cynhwysfawr iawn oddi wrth ein chwiorydd yn
@WRNWales yn esbonio pam y dylid gwrthod y Bil Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol.
#Senedd

[Merched Cymru @MerchedCymru]

Yfory, bydd Aelodau’r Senedd yn pleidleisio ynghylch a ddylid derbyn egwyddorion cyffredinol y Bil Rhestr Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol, a fyddai’n gosod cwota ‘rhywedd’ statudol ar y system etholiadol newydd sy’n cael ei chyflwyno. Mae gennym farn glir ar hyn.

Mae angen mwy nag ystumio perfformiadol er mwyn cryfhau cynrychiolaeth wleidyddol menywod.

Mae Bil sy'n osgoi diffinio hyd yn oed y termau mwyaf sylfaenol yn sicr o fethu.
