1. Some further thoughts on the Drag School for P5-P7 which might be of interest to local MSPs and councillors. As we know, Scot Gov have announced they want to incorporate the UN convention on the rights of the Child into Scots Law. ...

Why has it taken the government so long to act on this? We know that children's attitudes to sex and relationships are being damaged and that assault in schools is endemic. There is no excuse. https://t.co/0uvMJk... https://t.co/LD5jIV...

RT @helensaxby11: If you refer to women's opinions, worries and concerns as a 'pile on' you are contributing to #NoDebate. This *is* the debate and women are having it, with or without you. You can't silence us and demand a reasoned debate at the ...

Saying adult entertainment is inappropriate for children is very different to saying that men have to wear trousers. If you are incapable of addressing the actual arguments, making one up doesn't help your cause. https://t.co/rokK5C...

RT @JohannLamont: @DAaronovitch @bindelj @fionamac2017 @ayeshahazarika ‘No debate’ is a strategy not just a slogan. Invited onto radio to discuss Hate Crime legislation. No one - from Stonewall/Equality Network or those who had denounced my ‘bigotry’ ...
