X updates from me, Kara Dansky:
I am still locked out of my main X account (@KDansky), for which I pay for verification (the “blue check”). Being locked out is awful. 1/5
Oh dear. Canon Clare of Sunderland Minster has had her arse handed to her by the trustees, who’ve obviously been advised by decent lawyers.
FAFO indeed.
A lot of people have struggled to believe me when I say that the Australian Human Rights Commission is giving pregnancy protections in law to men who claim to be woman, because it’s so stupid it’s hard to believe anyone would say it.
Enjoy:
Last week I decided to throw my support behind @AndyBurnhamGM for leadership of the Labour Party and on to PM.
But I cannot do that now that I find out he says Transwomen. IE men. Should be allowed to use the ladies toilets. I can never support anyone that does this.
Biological Women must have single sex spaces.
The Scottish government is responsible for this sexual assault. The Supreme Court has confirmed women’s right to single sex spaces, a ruling the SNP continues to flout. If the victim wishes to sue, https://t.co/iyohnrgVZN can assist with all costs.
My choir - which specialises in singing at charity running events - has been dropped from Sunday's London Marathon.
Because I don't believe people can change sex - and said so publicly.
We were dropped by the disability charity Scope - who we've supported for the past two years - on the basis of two anonymous complaints. About MY gender critical beliefs.
So not only am I being discriminated against due to my lawfully held views - so are other people.
After months of preparation ... disappointed is not the word.
Suffice to say, if there are any organisations out there who are happy to welcome volunteers with lawfully held beliefs on sex and gender, we'd love to be your 'cheer squad' at Sunday's London Marathon.
Our running themed 'set list' is always a hit with runners and we bring fun, enthusiasm and props in spades (hence the 'Eye Of The Tiger' mask).
We'd love to help support runners raise money for good causes at this year's London Marathon - as we have done in previous years.

I wrote a thing about doing better to meet the health needs of people who have had gender interventions. Link below, come to the @CanSG_org conference in July and work it out? Links to that below too.
Lithuanian composer and conductor Mindaugas Piečaitis, directs his orchestra on the notes of Nora the cat playing the piano.
She earns a standing ovation.
Woman of the Day comedian, actress and singer-songwriter Victoria Wood (born in 1953 in Prestwich) died OTD in 2016 aged 62.
“The first day I met my producer, she said ‘I’m a radical feminist lesbian.’ I thought what would the Queen Mum do? So I just smiled and said ‘We shall have fog by tea-time.’”
I miss her.
