Tread softly because you tread on my dreams

[Darlington Nursing Union @DarlingtonUnion]

💜 A heartfelt thank you to J.K. Rowling 💜

To have someone of J.K. Rowling’s courage, influence and conviction publicly acknowledge and celebrate our victory means more to us than words can express. 🥹

The past three years have been an incredibly difficult journey for the Darlington nurses. We have faced challenges we could never have imagined but through it all, we have remained determined to stand up for what we believe is right. 💪🏻

Moments like this remind us that we are not alone!!

J.K. Rowling has shown extraordinary courage in standing up for women, often at considerable personal cost. Her unwavering support for women who have found themselves in difficult and sometimes frightening circumstances has given so many of us strength.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Jo. Thank you for your courage, your compassion and for using your voice to make sure women like us are heard!

Your support means the world to us and we will never take it for granted.

With love and gratitude,

The Darlington Nurses 💜

Yesterday I posted about a doctor who was allowed to keep on working in the NHS even after he had admitted raping a patient.
Today I ask a question:
How was a doctor allowed to carry on sexually abusing young girls for 4 years?
How many complaints did the NHS ignore in that time?

[Graham Linehan @Glinner]

This guy has a BBC sitcom despite telling rape jokes about a real victim. I suppose cancellation only works on those of us who stand up for women @vittorioangelon https://t.co/xhxB0xMATM

Now that I've successfully shamed Jon Ronson off X, it falls to @louistheroux and @DAaronovitch to explain why they continue to look the other way while men like this sexually humiliate female students and colleagues.

A 14YO boy lay in wait to attack a 14YO girl - where he stabbed her TEN times - and stabbed a shopkeeper.

A judge panders to him in court, calling him a "bright boy" and "prison is no place for him" and let's him walk free.

Police say it was a miracle the girl survived. She suffers nightmares and ongoing trauma that will affect her for the rest of her life.

Her family left distraught.
A public outraged - moved in their droves to challenge it.

Yet nothing will be done.
This boy learns he can commit the most horrific, violent attacks and be greeted with nothing but softly spoken words and a smile.

The girl learns her life, her safety, her future does not matter.

This country is a disgrace. A shameful, catastrophic hellhole of injustice with a legal system that cares only for horrific offenders and NO regard whatsoever for the trail of destroyed lives they leave behind.

I absolutely despair.
Thank you to everyone who challenged it. They gave us hope justice could prevail by including it on the website - but had no intention of following it through - which somehow makes it even worse. 😞

There has been so far as I know, exactly zero research into the impact on babies of being fed by men who were induced to lactate with domperidone. I know of no other area where children are subjected to medical experiments to validate men. Only this. Always this,

In my view, this is child abuse.

[Jill Foster @JournalistJill]

As long as I have breath in my body I will keep saying that men like Matt Ratley - and the men who support them - are deeply weird individuals who have found a way to make women feel uncomfortable while being applauded by other deeply weird individuals in the name of ‘inclusivity’.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

This is a man cheating by racing in women’s competitions. It’s that simple.

[Dr. Ann Olivarius @AnnOlivarius]

Such a "bright lad" will realise that stalking and almost killing a girl in bright daylight = slap on the wrist.

And what about the bright girl who almost died? All the other bright girls who are stalked and attacked? What conclusions will they draw?

"Keep out of mischief" Judge Ian Lawrie tells the 14 year old boy who chased down and stabbed a girl 10 times because she didn't want to date him.

Then gives him a curfew (which he broke the first night) instead of jail. That poor girl. UK justice is bonkers.

[For Women Scotland @ForWomenScot]

Now let's imagine that he turned up to work with a huge prosthetic penis.

Would @UniofOxford be so sanguine?

Men fetishising women's breasts is creepy and should never be acceptable in the workplace!

[Women's Rights Network - WRN @WomensRightsNet]

Note to all Judges: Stabbing a girl 10 times is not ‘mischief’. It’s serious violence. (We should not have to point this out).

Yet another case where a Judge is apparently more focused on the wellbeing of the violent male youth, than the brutalised girl. We agree with her mother. This derisory sentence is indeed disgraceful.

Q. What sort of message does this send out to young girls- and for that matter, young boys too?
A. That young girls matter less than young boys. Even stabbed young girls.

[Jean Hatchet @JeanHatchet]

What incredible bravery from Joanne Young. She waived her right to anonymity after being drugged and raped by Tory councillor Philip Young. He also allegedly “advertised” her to be raped and sexually abused by other men who are not on trial. He has admitted his guilt.

He shackled and blindfolded her and she thought she had had a nightmare. Hideous vile man.

This is the second such case in British courts in the same month. How often is this happening? That we don’t yet know about?! https://t.co/y35IrQ2gJF

[James Dreyfus @DreyfusJames]

1. I’m obviously devastated that @AngryDragon7 no longer “adores me”…🙄

2. I’m more than aware of LGB history. I couldn’t possibly be aware of LGBTQ etc history, as that is a recent, revisionist concoction, peddled by Stonewall et al to keep their collective incomes afloat.

3. Preserving women’s hard fought-for & won rights is not about “throwing anyone under a bus”. It’s about respecting boundaries, dignity & safeguards. ‘Good men stay out so bad men stand out.’

4. This is nothing to do with being “left or right” wing. This is simply about doing what IS right.

5. I may be many things, but being “bitter” & “a queen” ain’t two of them…. “old”, I’ll give you. 😁

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

It took 10yrs to get the ioc to protect women’s sport, a 3yr battle to get nurses able to change free from all males: we are winning, bringing back common sense, safeguarding & fairness. But it shouldn’t be this hard!

[Sall Grover @salltweets]

I have to leave Australia so I can actually run a start-up exclusively for women while men who claim to be women have BREASTFEEDING PROTECTIONS IN LAW🤬

The current government, including representatives of the attorney-general, have no plans to fix it. They’re happy to admit it:

[Graham Linehan @Glinner]

Amazing. They tried to destroy Lynne for objecting to male cheats in her sport and now she's representing England and winning.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

3 yrs fighting its own female nurses even though the tryst was warned their position was against uk law & 1.5 million spent of tax payers money! Yet no who made these choices has lost their job! Extraordinary https://t.co/l6T2dhWzRQ

The Women’s Rights Network stand by the women and girls of Afghanistan.

We expect UN Women, Amnesty and the rest of the international community to do the same.

[Kris Murray Browne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺🇵🇸 @Criosdubhskye]

This man is utterly repellent He’s responsible for taking Australia down very dark path. Thanks to him no woman in Oz can have security privacy or respect. He’s turned word woman into catch all for every crank & pervert who wants to put on dress & smug bastard thinks he’s a hero
