A true love story. Angelina Jolie is really leaning on Bob these days.
He is with her every step of the way through her battle.
This will put a big smile on your face… (1/7) 🧵
I see Nicola Sturgeon is once again complaining that I posted a picture of myself wearing a T-shirt with her name on it and the legend 'Destroyer of Women's Rights.' Apparently this didn't 'elevate the debate.'
Is there a clinical term for an individual who has extreme thinness of skin when it comes to their own perceived hurts, coupled with a rhino-hide when it comes to the fear and suffering of others?
I'm thinking in particular of the two women Isla Bryson raped, who had to watch their First Minister squirm and smirk on TV as she tried to avoid admitting he was a man; of the five survivors of male violence who were ready to give evidence to Sturgeon's committee on gender self-ID, but were told to put their concerns in writing while seventeen trans-identified people appeared in person; of the mother of a young girl with a learning disability who campaigned against self-ID because she wanted her daughter to be guaranteed same sex intimate care, should she need it (the mother was presumably one of those female opponents Sturgeon calls 'shrill' and 'hysterical' in her memoir); of the ten-year-old girl sexually assaulted in a public bathroom by a 6'5" paedophile who served his jail sentence in a women's prison because he called himself 'Katie'; of Sandie Peggie, forced to discuss her own menstrual history in public to justify not wanting to undress in view of a 6ft straight cross-dresser in the nurses' changing room; of Marion Millar, dragged into court because she tweeted a picture of suffragette ribbons; of the Scottish rape crisis centres reliant on government funding who were pressured to admit trans-identified males into their services if they wanted funding to continue.
When Sturgeon refers to an 'elevated debate', she means a discussion that takes place within a tiny, smug bubble from which regular women suffering real life consequences of her policies are firmly excluded. These faceless ants are loftily dismissed as bigots, or, to be more precise: 'transphobic, misogynistic, homophobic, maybe racist as well.'
Nicola, you hated the T-shirt picture because you couldn't ignore it, as you'd ignored so many other women trying to make you understand their concerns. Appeals to your empathy, your intelligence and your compassion all failed. Apparently the only way to get through to you is through your vanity.
Nicola Sturgeon’s legacy. I came. I failed. I made Scotland so much more worse. I stole Alex Salmond’s honourable legacy. I wrote a sad book and threw my husband under our campervan.
🚨Breaking: Nicola Sturgeon will stand down from the Scottish Parliament.
In her tenure as First Minister, she oversaw the undermining of women’s safety, the ideological indoctrination of children, and the clamping down on free speech.
Good riddance.

@ScotGovFM@scotgov@JohnSwinney More grandstanding and pretending Scotland is an independent country. You are responsible for ensuring our bins are emptied. 🙄
@antoguerrera "She came from the wrong side of the tracks. He was one of the most powerful men in the world. But rapacious globalism brought them together in a love story that will touch your heart and possibly change your gender."
Alex Salmond was a huge figure in our politics. While I disagreed with him on the constitutional question, there was no denying his skill in debate or his passion for politics. May he rest in peace.
I was due to see Alec tomorrow night to discuss the next round in dealing with the Scottish Government's malevolent actions against him.
We differed on some fundamental issues, but he was a great leader for his country.

Regardless of anyone’s political hue, the removal of the portrait of one of the most significant figures in UK political history from 10 Downing Street by the present incumbent of the Prime Minister’s post smacks of extreme pettiness, vindictiveness and exhibits an infantile trait in someone who should possess fundamental Prime Ministerial characteristics such as moral courage, strength, integrity and above all an acute awareness that they are supposed to be the Prime Minister of the entire United Kingdom and thus should act accordingly instead of engaging in cheap points-scoring. He has tarnished both his and his party’s standing by his actions.
@YodelOnline - I’ve been trying to collect a parcel for over a week. Always the same issue with a Vinted yodel delivery - won’t issue collection code - doesn’t send the code despite numerous attempts on the app. For three days now trying to web chat but keeps timing out 😩🤬
