RT @WomensSpaceIre: “Measures that should be taken include: accommodation in a single-cell, access to appropriate health care...and body searches which are conducted in accordance with the expressed gender of the transgender prisoner.”https://t...
RT @WomensSpaceIre: Limerick Women's Prison is the most overcrowded in the country tonight at 121%, the male section at 98%. (https://t.co/mMmUH... Is it fair to women prisoners that men with a Gender Recognition Certificate can be imprisoned with th ...
RT @TCDFFT: Ireland is supposed to be a shining beacon of progress these days... but in fact, we have sleepwalked into a nightmare. As we send out our first tweet to the world, our thoughts go to the female inmates of Limerick Prison. If no one else ...
RT @blablafishcakes: The Times letter in support of JK Rowling is now a petition. Today's events have proved how much we need to stand up against 'cancel culture' and the misogynous bullying of women online. Please click on the link and add your ...
RT @suzanne_moore: Another day, another witch burning. Shame some of us are flame retardant. That's just how God made us.
As we know, sex is not currently covered in Hate Crime, yet it is also considered to be the biggest driver of offences. There are also areas where women may, currently, find it hard to get reports taken seriously. Survey isn't related to proposed ...
We should like to know whether @ScottishTrans would support this outcome in Scottish prisons. Also the MPs @ElliotColburn & @CatSmithMP who quoted Ireland as an example of the success of self ID last week in the House of Commons. Do you think ...
RT @TwisterFilm: @snowthistle @MrJohnNicolson @ALLIANCELGB @ForwomenScot John’s original posts were uninformed, intellectually lazy (hardly surprising cos he never had an original thought in his life) and abusive. When you condemn his idiocy and ...
RT @SibylWrites: @NickCohen4 As a former winner of the @mslexia Poetry Competition, I am appalled that they should drop one judge - Amanda Craig simply because of another's 'discomfort'. Writing is not, and should never be about 'comfort'. Instead, ...
RT @JammersMinde: Just a heads up @wwwritingclub it seems you are being targeted by this person who also runs social media for other accounts. They also like to threaten violence. How unusual 🤷‍♀️ https://t.co/W3mOoh...
We have many concerns about the guidance in Scottish schools - including the LGBT youth guidance which ministers believe is "not legal". Thank you @murdo_fraser for this article: it would be great if questions could be asked of @JohnSwinney ...
Perhaps when they've explained why they removed a woman from a panel for publicly saying that it is wrong send a torrent of death and rape threats to a female author. @mslexia must think this is can be acceptable, we'd like to know why. ...
RT @blablafishcakes: You're not going to believe this. After a complaint, @Mslexia, a magazine for women who write, has dropped @AmandaPCraig as a judge in a competition simply because she signed the Times letter in support of @jk_rowling - a letter ...
Thank you, Lucy, an excellent idea. https://t.co/zIXxqy...
This is important. We are constantly being told that "official" (ie funded by the Scottish Gov) women's orgs don't have an issue with Gov plans to allow self ID. This might explain why! https://t.co/B5gTlg...
RT @TJVRD: In other words, "wherever you look in feminist history, men have been trying to destroy feminism and silence women". https://t.co/HEP3oN...
RT @LibSubversive: (1) @VictoriaPeckham Last night the LibDems debated a 'business' motion about management of its conference. Ostensibly it was about respecting trans people & their pronouns & bathroom facilities. Of course it wasn't about ...
Is there a shortage of feminist writers & thinkers in Scotland? It's troubling when someone with Giles' history is held up as an expert on the female experience. https://t.co/B4X87j...
Letter to @JohnSwinney about the problematic elements in the RSHP syllabus from @crit_gen We look forward to the response! https://t.co/vBXjzj...

Tens of millions every week? Wow, why is no one reporting on these genocidal films? It sounds terrible! Covid has only managed one million in a year... https://t.co/MHdWMG...

RT @hightreebud: @LeighMacInski @ForwomenScot @scotgov @JohnSwinney The replacement guidance was supposed to be published last December, long before Covid. It is now delayed indefinitely, and it is to @JohnSwinney's shame that the illegal guidance ...
RT @JohnnyOGray: Big up @ForwomenScot recently blocked by men's rights enthusiast The Stuart McDonald for blatant disobedience & difficult questioning. I experimented by replying to the same tweet with identical text, but so far no block. What ...
