And again, Patrick Harvie forbade SGP MSPs signing a motion that condemned violence against women on campus. Presumably because Harvie believes some male violence is justified if women hold "wrong" opinions. And @NicolaSturgeon is apparently ...
RT @sleeepysandy: We need 532 more signatures to hold the government to account: why should men be able to record their crimes as women’s? Sign & share please to require that the sex of violent & sexual offenders be recorded throughout ...
The matter of fact way women are talking about the risk of serious harm and the fears they faced attending legitimate meetings should shame every politician in Scotland. None more so than @ScotGovFM #WomenWontWeesht https://t.co/Wb9Rtt...
RT @amoozeboosh: @SarahPedersen2 @LabWomenDec After the Meghan Murphy talk that @JoanMcAlpine facilitated at the Scottish Parliament, the speakers and organisers were advised by Security to leave out of a side door that they took us to and opened. ...
RT @LabWomenDec: We gather that the emergency exit plan included an escape route from the stage and a back-up venue to which the event could be evacuated mid-stream. Because of the level of threats against a meeting on women's rights. Absolutely ...
It's quite something to use a woman's name, profit off her work, but denounce her for supporting women's rights and safety. If @ScottishTrans are accepting money on the back of the abuse of an author & the exploitation of her work, they should be ...
Demo at Parliament: 2nd Sept
Best reply on the eye-popping prison abolition thread to someone busily telling everyone to they "fake care" and are ignorant about prisons. https://t.co/F1XkJN...
Of course, because releasing violent rapists, killers, and domestic abusers (who generally go on to reoffend) is EXACTLY the best way to keep women safe. https://t.co/dVTRiI...
RT @LabWomenDec: Thread. This looks like bad faith action from @UCL_UCU. There's mounting evidence that membership of the Stonewall Diversity Champions scheme is bad for @UCU members: poor legal advice erodes everyone's working conditions. The issues ...

Many things in Andy Wightman's blog yesterday. Of note, Eilidh Martin was one of complainants. The public information of Martin is shocking: is this is really the type of person Harvie prioritises ahead of decency, intellect & integrity? ...
RT @fatblackcatspaw: I have friends working in the Scottish Government terrified about speaking out for womens right and this person working for@FCDOGovUK puts out pictures of themselves and their pin badges calling for violence against people and ...

RT @judgejules75: If you need a reminder of the kind of man Patrick Harvie is, this thread will leave you in no doubt. The only women he will tolerate are the ones that agree with his every word & his lack of concern over a constituent’s safety ...
RT @murdo_fraser: These are the people who could be part of Scotland’s Government, if @NicolaSturgeon gets her way https://t.co/iS2WQM...
On the meeting mentioned in Andy's blog. Awful for these women and terrible that open misogyny is now not only acceptable but required by some parties. https://t.co/k2QtWA...
Many things in Andy Wightman's blog yesterday. Of note, Eilidh Martin was one of complainants. We have a huge file on Martin: is this is really the type of person Harvie prioritises ahead of decency, intellect & integrity? #HarvieHatesWomen ...
Awful, awful story. We need to address and challenge the culture that means some men feel entitled to women's bodies. https://t.co/BZ2SHD...
