RT @jothemama: Thanks for the love everyone!! I had no idea this tiktok was gaining traction here and I finally joined Twitter because of it đ„° https://t.co/1wvU27...
Petition launched for sex of those charged with rape to be recorded âaccuratelyâ
Stop the Scottish Government redefining "woman" to include men
A thread which proves how sorely @ALLIANCELGB is needed. @stonewalluk should be ashamed they have turned their back on these women and @ChtyCommission must stand strong. These women need and deserve an organisation to defend them. ...
RT @LucyHunterB: If you had told me three or four years ago that my first ever Parliamentary petition would be asking for this, and that I would be far from confident of the chances of success, I think I would have been completely astonished. The ...
RT @mbmpolicy: Our petition has been signed by almost 4k people and was reported on in today's Scotsman newspaper: https://t.co/bKnXGi...
Disagreeing with a Woman: Threats of Rape and Violence
RT @Jebadoo2: âQueers who died of AIDSâ Reminds me a lot of how the gay men who died at the time were described in some newspapers. Always a horrible word, but particularly sad to see it in this context. https://t.co/7sB2FM...
Or: "They stopped asking me because I demanded editorial control" By "Abusive transphobe", does Kennedy mean a woman who has the temerity not to shut up when told? https://t.co/NhX7xp...
RT @sarahditum: Big fan of "I shouldn't be on the radio at all, answer me a question Justin, the media is homophobic and transphobic, also Nancy Kelley didn't say that but if she had I'd agree with it" as a media strategy
.@joannaccherry said that your tweet was misleading - which it was. You were trying to claim the case was about you. That is before we start on you misapprehensions about the case. Oh and linking, again, to a woeful article by Paton, doesn't ...
RT @errinnyes: It's heartening to see the number of men who have messaged us to ask if we are doing @millar_marion t-shirts for them, too. Happy to confirm that, yes, we are đ Again, just drop us a DM for all the info you'll need to order. ...
The best bit about this tweet is that Cohen thinks it was a compliment... https://t.co/dtlyra...
This answer from @policescotland shows they care more for the feelings of perpetrators of sexual assault than the victims. It is why everyone needs to sign this petition. https://t.co/JxZSPw... #womenwontwheesht https://t.co/X5OWoI...
RT @TwisterFilm: 2./ Cohen seems to have rehearsed for today's interview with @JustinOnWeb when he pompously railed against gay journo @cristo_radio yesterday saying he wouldn't deign to defend Stonewall against what he said were "false" charges. So ...
Honestly? I'd say that was the least embarrassing bit of the article! https://t.co/5oxfpa...
RT @JustinOnWeb: Interesting. We need to discuss these issues rationally and calmly and more often https://t.co/CYmXIa...
This from the straight white "cis" man who, with the straight white "cis" CEO of Mermaids, is taking an LGB charity to court, claiming to act on behalf of trans people - many of whom are appalled by his actions. Perhaps if Maugham feels this ...
RT @lascapigliata8: Do you remember that comedienne who did lip syncing to Trump's lies, to a hilarious effect? Radfems need that, for this interview. @Aja02537920 I think you'd be brilliant (hint hint) đđ https://t.co/98toAo...
Amanda Jones on the graphic threats she has received and how this drives women from public debate. Meanwhile, our skewered Hate Crime laws, and the emphasis the police place on them, mean that women's disagreement is clamped down on more fiercely ...
RT @crit_gen: @ForwomenScot @Joy_ismyname_ @Transgendertrd @SimonFanshawe That appears to be a malicious communication https://t.co/j2wsuL...
RT @K_IngalaSmith: Saying that Stonewall hasn't campaigned from the removal of women's single-sex spaces looks a lot like misinformation being spread by a media that doesn't acknowledge the need for women's single sex spaces to me. Your move, ...
RT @JosephMcGann: Having listened, I thought this, too. How can a no debate policy help anyone? https://t.co/0pHmA4...
RT @Joy_ismyname_: Please donate to help @ForwomenScot and women across Scotland fight against this attack on our language and our rights. https://t.co/tvYXeY...
David Paisley's mask is off "all GCs are transphobic" That is women who want female only rape examiners. Women who want to compete fairly and safely at sport. Women who want language to talk about bodies and rights. He claims to hate abusers - yet ...
RT @amoozeboosh: @KathyBurke Subject was everyone leaving the Stonewall Diversity Champions programme. Co-founder of Stonewall was one interviewee, Stonewall didn't put anyone up to rebut so... Ben Cohen it was. If he didn't approve he could have let ...
RT @weehalfpintt: There is no good reason not to sign. Please đ. I know "tch, another petition" but this IS IMPORTANT We cannot help ensure the girls/women are safe if we do not have accurate recordings on charges/convictions... I can't believe I'm ...
No, the issue was Stonewall guidance and the impact on other PCs. The Reindorf report highlighted that, in failing to balance the needs of women & other PCs, they were discriminating. If trans rights mean oppressing others, it isn't lawful. Cohen ...
Any politician who has ever taken the Stonewall shilling or appeared at their awards should listen to this! #WomenWontWheesht https://t.co/xQWc4D...
Dan appears to be assuming Justin's identity here. What about Pips Bunce, eh? Are you saying that Pips isn't really trans...? https://t.co/DOxaqY...
We are back in court for procedural hearing on 15th July After paying our bills, the balance in the Crowd justice fund is ÂŁ52,000, so we will need to keep pushing this. We have been told that EN/STA do not intend to intervene this time ...
Because, and this may shock Ben, the interview was not about him & @JustinOnWeb was not there to answer his bizarre questions. In fact, as Reindorf report makes clear, the focus of SW on one PC at the expense of others HAS led to discrimination ...
RT @charlesarthur: I thought @justinonweb made a heroic effort to keep the interview with @benjamincohen on track. There was an element of gish gallop to the responses. Itâs never a good look: if youâre going to go on the programme, youâve got to ...
RT @metaburbia: @benjamincohen @JustinOnWeb @BBCr4today @stonewalluk Cohen: 'Has Stonewall said those spaces should be open to trans people? I don't believe they have'. Stonewall: https://t.co/ocJYJD...
RT @RadFemLawyer: PC Wayne Couzens, 48, has just pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to the kidnap and rape of Sarah Everard.
David really is a horribly controlling individual, trying to bully and intimidate others out of the conversation. Note also that he couldn't answer a perfectly reasonable question. https://t.co/y1CO7A...
Please keep pushing this and asking friends and family to sign. This is vital for women, for data collection and for services. It is a scandal this was ever allowed to happen. #WomenWontWheesht #sexmatters #sexnotgender https://t.co/dQ2ubt...
Just because... Might be helpful for some? https://t.co/x56Tpv...
Oh, you and your pesky facts! Cohen and Stonewall have got so used to falsity, it comes as second nature. But the duplicitous nonsense on #bbcr4today was breathtaking by any standards. @JustinOnWeb did very well to challenge Cohen. Here is the ...
RT @Woodmoose: @ForwomenScot Cohenâs lack of personal insight is staggering đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł If that was keeping his cool, what the hell is he like when heâs having a tantrum. The dissociation between what actually happened and what he thinks happened is ...
RT @MgillAnn: @ForwomenScot we need much more signatures this is really important. https://t.co/xBx8UB...
A good point. It appears @stonewalluk are even frightened of corporations to whom they have given exhaustive training and who have, in past, been inclined to go easy on them (as well as make children's progs about 100s if genders). Perhaps they know ...
RT @joannaccherry: The contrast between Simon Fanshawe & Benjamin Cohen in their @BBCr4today interviews today was very telling. It was the measured arguments of people like Simon that won #equality for #LGBT people not hysterical #nodebate ...
Cohen didn't want to be interviewed, he was rude, aggressive and tried to make statements rather than answer, in stark contrast to @SimonFanshawe. Interviews are supposed to have a purpose. In the circumstances, @JustinOnWeb did an amazing job ...
RT @CreeAnt: Well @Stonewall, with friends like that, who needs enemies? Ben Cohenâs interview with the admirable @JustinOnWeb was a disaster - evasive, defensive & devoid of arguments in support of his case. Such a contrast with @SimonFanshaweâs ...
Ben Cohen, peaking the nation... #BBCR4today https://t.co/eLHaZU...
RT @Womans_Place_UK: Stonewallâs submission to GRA inquiry âA review of the Equality Act 2010 to include âgender identityâ rather than âgender reassignmentâ as a protected characteristic and to remove exemptions, such as access to single-sex spacesâ ...
Cohen claims to run a news outlet. It is clear that he either lied on @BBCr4today or failed to do the most basic check. Of course, Stonewall and Cohen believe bio sex is superceded by identity & males who claim to be womn *are* women. Thus they ...
RT @LabWomenDec: Car crash interview on @BBCr4today by Justin Webb with Ben, 'editor' of P News. Ben made false claims. Thanks @Womans_Place_UK for rebuttals below. #SexNotGender #Stonefall https://t.co/8SAoU7...
RT @helensaxby11: Benjamin Cohen complains that no trans people are being interviewed about trans issues, straight after @SimonFanshawe has explained that this is largely an issue of women's rights. Why should trans people decide women's rights? ...
This morning's art is entitled "dogsaplaining the law" or "ladies, you may be QCs, barristers, equality law experts, but we are male puppies. Listen up while we read this very slowly out loud." https://t.co/FeybJ4...
Good to hear @SimonFanshawe on @BBCr4today talking about Stonewall. His calm, rational approach was certainly in contrast to Benjamin Cohen!
RT @rosey_nz: The number of #Olympians, former #athletes, coaches, managers & #sports physicians signing the open letter to @grantrobertson1 continues to grow, as does the frustration at @SportNZ for ignoring their reasonable request to extend ...
