By adding "gender identity," Gillard removed the biological definition of sex under the Sex Discrimination Act — without a public conversation, and while ignoring warnings from women.
It is the job of lawmakers to consider the impact BEFORE changing laws

A great pleasure to speak in the House of Lords today on @UKLabour’s dystopian gay conversion legislation.
We must not get lost in the weeds of the details, this is a full frontal assault on homosexuality, freedom of speech, women’s rights & safeguarding.
It must be defeated.
Only women give birth. Say the word. WOMEN.
Women were subjected to terrible medical misogyny at the heart of these maternity scandals. It is both ironic and insulting therefore to erase women from reports and describe us as ‘birthing people’.

MSPs are not alone in struggling with the concept of sex. @NHSGGC STILL don't know the sex of the children being treated at Sandyford gender clinic.

NEW: US Supreme Court rules that state laws protecting sport for women and girls are lawful.
The court said that “The term ‘sex’ in Title IX … cannot plausibly be interpreted to refer to anything other than biological sex.”

A major report into NHS maternity failings says women have been ignored, harmed and let down... then describes them as “birthing people”.
“Only women can become pregnant and give birth…They are mothers, not ‘birthing people’.” @DerryBanShee in @DailyMail

When a political class becomes incapable of stating the obvious, it should not be surprised when the public concludes that it is incapable of governing anything else either.
The hearing of Tempest v DEFRA & Rural Payments Agency is now in its second week.
Samantha Tempest – a male civil servant who identifies as female – is claiming discrimination, harassment and/or victimisation on grounds of gender reassignment.

Six of these ten Highland Councillors voted to allow a taxi driver who raped a passenger to keep his operator’s license — even though senior police officers urged them not to.
Please note that although we’re constantly told it’s women who grease the wheels for rapists, every single councillor who voted in rapist David Brown’s favor is a man. Take a good look at them, Scottish women: these 6 men would put you, alone and unwarned, in a taxi with a man who has already raped at least one passenger.
Brown has been put on the register for life; he raped an 18 year old girl and dumped her outdoors on a sub-zero January night in the Scottish Highlands; but these 6 men - Chris Birt, John Grafton, Ruraidh Stewart, Sean Kennedy, Willy MacKay, and Duncan MacPherson - are more concerned about his finances than they are about the safety of local women.

The 'loophole' was explicitly put in by the SNP. They rejected an amendment that would've outlawed sex offenders changing their names. That's how much the SNP hates women and kids.
73 out of 129 MSPs refuse to disclose their sex.
After Holyrood tried to erase women from its website and got called out, they U-turned and asked MSPs to state biological sex. Most still hid behind “undisclosed”.
Cowards. These are the people writing laws on women’s prisons, sports and single-sex spaces while refusing to admit whether they’re male or female.
If they can’t handle basic biology about themselves, they have no business erasing ours!

The bonkers MSPs of @ScottishGreens think that if they refuse tell us their sex, we won't know they are men or women!
Susan Smith pointed to the fact Scottish Greens MSP Kate Nevens had previously supported equality monitoring.

During the 24 election, @DrScottArthurMP claimed to agree with the Labour party manifesto on single-sex spaces. His behaviour since suggests he was less than honest with the women of Edinburgh South West.
He has yet to meet FWS.

The Supreme Court was clear about single sex spaces, puberty blockers damage children, so why are Labour MPs like @DrScottArthurMP against a ban on dangerous medication for kids and opposed to the @EHRC guidance. As for the SNP, Lib Dems and Scottish Greens in Edinburgh City Council 🤦🏼♀️ 🤬

GCSE Spanish lessons should teach Spanish, not transactivism.
“Pearson strikes again with material that presents trans activism as virtuous to students.” @HJoyceGender quoted in @Telegraph on pro-trans messaging being inserted into GCSE Spanish lessons.
