@Brink_Thinker Yes, literally only came home for Tizer and a Dairylea sandwich at lunchtime. Popped back at half 5 for fishfingers and beans. Home when it started to get dark. Dens, rope swings, tree climbing, trespassing, hedge hopping...
Hi @Ofstednews my son applied for an apprenticeship through @KEITS_Training after a long probationary period he was managed out, received misinformation from @KEITS_Training & employer. Surely @KEITS_Training have a responsibility to ensure employers are appropriate?
Publication day for this book about the disability rights movement with portraits of some of the campaigners who have wheeled, marched and signed for civil rights. Illustrated by Aleksandar Zolotic, thanks to @AbiaAkram, @TommyShakes, @Tanni_GT, @eddiendopu and @BnsJaneCampbell
Wow @RotherDC look how you've displaced wildlife. Lining the pockets of developers who are decimating the countryside building huge houses in an area where huge houses aren't needed.

Only kidding. Obviously, the people mentioned in the above tweets aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them.
In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls’ single-sex spaces, the nonsense made of crime data if violent and sexual assaults committed by men are recorded as female crimes, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, the injustice of women’s jobs, honours and opportunities being taken by trans-identified men, and the reality and immutability of biological sex.
For several years now, Scottish women have been pressured by their government and members of the police force to deny the evidence of their eyes and ears, repudiate biological facts and embrace a neo-religious concept of gender that is unprovable and untestable. The re-definition of 'woman' to include every man who declares himself one has already had serious consequences for women's and girls’ rights and safety in Scotland, with the strongest impact felt, as ever, by the most vulnerable, including female prisoners and rape survivors.
It is impossible to accurately describe or tackle the reality of violence and sexual violence committed against women and girls, or address the current assault on women’s and girls’ rights, unless we are allowed to call a man a man. Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal.
I'm currently out of the country, but if what I've written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.

@BBCWomansHour@aimafidon@Emmabarnett My 16 year old son has dyscalculia and has failed maths twice, despite being a bright, hard working person his self esteem is flat lining at college because of the mandatory having to take maths until 18. He doesn't have a maths brain. Pushing beyond 16 feel purgatory
