RT @elaineettles: @ForwomenScot @NHSScotland If you were in resus clinging on to life you just want capable professionals looking after you. I’m so against NHS staff having to wear any kind of badge. When I was a midwife any badges or religious ...
RT @LibVoice4Women: Another excellent event last night with two heavyweight feminists deconstructing the standard 'liberal' arguments in defence of the sex industry. Thanks so much @bindelj and @jaccistoyleLD for giving us all so much to think about. ...
And again. Nurses with badges are "safe" Nurses without are not. Really @NHSScotland, is this what you you want to say to staff? https://t.co/IHiIyF...
RT @JanetMcwee: @ForwomenScot https://t.co/Fq4lkE...
RT @LabWomenDec: “To claim that those who do not agree on questions of gender are transphobes, TERFs, bigots, is not just an insult to those on the left, many with a long history of fighting all forms of oppression and bigotry, but it also weakens ...
The situation in Holbeck has been horrific, this is a welcome move. @CPG_CSE this may be of interest. https://t.co/hwqf5a...
RT @campervanwoman: They’re probably taking some time to consider the implications of Maya’s judgement, aren’t they? https://t.co/uZgHTD...
In E&W, NHS staff are also being criticised in the name of progress. Is this really the way to build understanding? #BinTheBadge https://t.co/nioP8V...
RT @campervanwoman: This person argues for trans identified males to have access to women's rape crisis services. But he would do wouldn't he? It's self interest after all. I have real concerns that @rapecrisisscot, @EngenderScot @scotwomensaid and ...
RT @emmalken: Good to hear @MareeToddMSP acknowledging the disproportionate impact #COVID19 has had on women when introducing the Women’s Health Plan & a ref to @CCriadoPerez too #WomensHealth
RT @Jebadoo2: 1/ Thread. @stephenfry - Let us be clear about what is actually happening here. Stonewall want to make it unlawful to suggest to a child presenting to a gender clinic normally in great distress that they might not be trans. This is ...
A few days ago, @HSJnews published an article by Kate Grimes, a former NHS Trust CEO which @HSJEditor said was the most commented on in their digital history & for which he received the most unsolicited messages of thanks. In response, Cursed E - ...
Women's rights activists are told they are seeking to "erase" people and accused of wanting "genocide". Yet no woman on our side has ever written something like this. And no one in Gov in Scotland will address this. https://t.co/Y1AbUm...
RT @LucyHunterB: Too much that matters gets too little attention. Alex M uses corrupt. I’d add craven. https://t.co/awjmSj...
RT @amoozeboosh: i DESPAIR at our political classes now. @AnasSarwar why do you keep this troll around? https://t.co/0TLcRL...
How odd, Heather claimed this was an offer of help, but it appears that when we said we'd be happy to support, we got a block. No doubt, Herbert is passing on our wish to be included to the organisers as we speak! Or, as we originally thought, it was ...
What on earth are you talking about? Why does saying that you have a track record of being trolling and abusive toward us mean we are "against bodily autonomy?" You think we are fault for not signing something no one told us about? You people are ...
RT @wornoutmumhack: Could??? 👀 https://t.co/aFV6Pp...
RT @CellarDoor1990: @Ire_LGBAlliance We stand with you @Ire_LGBAlliance 🙌 https://t.co/RVqdoh...
RT @Lachlan_Edi: Actually, the more I think of it, the angrier I get. Rainbow flag is a symbol of Pride. It is for L+Gs (&Bs + Ts, if you will) to declare, proudly, who we are, an important way that we come out, incl at work. NHS Scotland ...
RT @ClareCAIS: Can I report this video for #intersexphobia & using language that the mostpeople born with variations of sexual development neither like nor use & may not even know it applies to them & all whilst dismissing the complex ...
RT @ClareCAIS: Can @scotgovhealth contact @dsdfamilies instead of erasing & dismissing the needs of the children & families we support, in this non-inclusive way - do not use us if you don’t even understand our needs or who we are ...
"Experts have warned that there are 7,000 people living with undiagnosed cancer as a result of the pandemic." There is especial concern re breast cancer. Yousaf admits it will take “years” to restore SNHS to pre-Covid levels. But the priority is ...
“if you demonstrate you’re not impartial, and you then have to make an arrest, how on earth do you assist the courts to come to just judgement as to you having executed your powers of arrest in an appropriately impartial professional manner?” ...
RT @amoozeboosh: @hannahsbee I know you're busy with Sonia Appleby but this is a real scandal too, any chance some journalists could get onto it? @bbcnickrobinson @JustinOnWeb https://t.co/OkUUoG...
RT @JNHanvey: Exactly why you don’t politicise NHS workers trying to do their job👇 This scheme needs to be abandoned before someone gets hurt. If they forget their badge or decided wearing one’s in conflict with professional or personal beliefs. ...

RT @AnnieWellsMSP: Our remarkable NHS staff don't need to wear a badge to prove they treat others, whether it be patients or colleagues, with dignity and respect. They do so on a daily basis. https://t.co/I96MPV...
Has Herbert decided to go full time troll, @ScottishLabour? We are, however delighted that Equality Network, Amnesty, Engender, ZT etc now acknowledge that it is *women* who have need of abortions. Let's keep it that way! https://t.co/LqKoU8...
