Thank you
@theJeremyVine
for our convo today.
‘Scarlet’ Blake is a man who committed an appalling crime - the media should not be afraid to say so.
Truth matters - for the victim, for trust, safety, and accurate data. Facts trump pretend identities.
Unbelievable that the

Man who sees no biological difference in males competing in female sport
Now demonstrates for a second time that he knows full well what a woman is when he needs to rent out her body for his own benefit

OK deep breath.
The suggestion being made in this clip is that GC groups are monitored by the police for ‘radicalisation’. Basically, that women concerned about their rights are extremists.

What about a woman in a single sex space?
The police should not be telling women to lie or else. Orwellian

Inexplicable.
The severity and extremity of beating up an elderly woman as part of an out of control mob is mitigated by previous voluntary work. Oh, let's protect your name too.
If this doesn't send a huge message about who is valued, and who isn't, I don't know what does.
Defendant in the Posie Parker assault of elderly women gets discharge without conviction and permanent name suppression. The Court recognised the 180 hours of Red Cross voluntary work and other factors which the defendant had undertaken.

No Billy, we have the measure of you. You should be ashamed now, but in true male bully style you’re enjoying it
Many of us are life long lefties and are horrified by how fascist, authoritarian and misogynistic the trans activists are. You are part of that. Shameful

@KivoLee
The only discrimination here is against the women being expected to play against a man (regardless of what he calls himself). Unsafe, unfair and out of order.
The purpose of this meeting is act as a ‘critical friend’ for the Police on issues such as stop and search, and misogyny.
No women’s groups there at all. But they do have a man pretending he’s a lesbian. As their Chair.
Any claim to ‘legitimacy’ is gone.

Do you have any respect for women
@swpolice
?
This man chairs your Police Accountability and Legitimacy Panel.
Yes, the man who claims to be a lesbian and offends every woman who respects same-sex attraction.
You've lost the plot. Magdalen said it best👇
@Brett_Tamahori
I’m old enough to remember when women actually had sex-based rights and this mattered to anyone with an ounce of respect for human rights

I watched that video clip before I got blocked. The woman was clearly being pushed and shoved backwards several times by a skinny balaclavad individual. Looked like a common assault to me. She stood her ground
In words familiar to every woman on the receiving end of domestic violence
‘Woman - Look at what you made me do’
We see you fella and your ‘passion’ is unfettered misogyny
Our job as MPs is to channel passion and anger into considered debate to win arguments - in this case for the Trans community and to defend devolution. I failed to control that passion…
Women at this event (and the officers) were let down by poor planning, insufficient policing numbers, poor command decisions and a failure to deploy PSU officers
You let fascist bullies act with impunity

that’s it’s just fun, not a race, it’s social, records don’t matter -
Suddenly and as if by magic, those records DO matter now male records aren’t visible anymore.
Why do you think that is? 🤔
All the men who no longer have their parkrun data can just go & do a race instead, right lads? That’s what you’ve been telling women who want fairness at parkrun all this time. Races cost money. You’ve demanded that women pay money to get fairness so now you pay to get yr data.
@Independent
And how do you think women have been feeling exactly?
Having our boundaries, language and safety eroded?
If this ideology can’t stand up to mockery, and having its basic tenets reflected back then it shows how flimsy and nonsensical it is
I want to make it very clear that there is no justification for this to be recorded as a female crime no matter what
@ThamesVP
say about legislation.
It’s deliberate smoke and mirrors.
They are meant to display ‘honesty and integrity’ though. Go figure.
@MForstater
This isn’t just training alone. This is a PCSO totally absorbed and evangelical, you can hear her emotion at one point. Totally signed up to a cult

This shows a lack of balance and a lack of impartiality
They all point out that males have an unfair advantage over females in sport
Males are not women
Strip and intimate searching is undignified and humiliating- for those being searched and for the officers.
That police forces have so eagerly embraced and agreed to this change is breathtakingly offensive.
Stick to the law - not ideology.

BREAKING 🚨 - STATE SANCTIONED SEXUAL ASSAULT
A new policy has been implemented under the radar by the majority of police forces in the country.
This allows trans-identifying male officers (men who claim to be women) to STRIP and intimately search women.
If you object, you are
This masked and angry mob encircled women leaving the area and followed us, chanting and screaming
Please tell me again how you are ‘pleased’ with this - you should be embarrassed to have presided over this - and to have put out this press release!
Let’s be clear - women gathered to talk about our rights
An angry masked mob wanted to shut that down, to silence us
Your ‘facilitation’ was ineffective
You had all the info & intell yet you did not resource this properly at the outset - your officers had to ask for back-up
No physical confrontations?
Our female stewards had to stand in front of officers - to protect the women speaking!
Why didn’t you maintain a clear gap between the groups? Proximity was unacceptable and intimidating, they were virtually on top of us!
They keep following us whereever we stood. Police did nothing to stop them. We are surrounded by them. There are stewards *in front of* the police.
#Letwomenspeak
And then we had an angry mob outside the pub
Men openly trying to terrorise women - and visibly excited by the fact that they could do this without risk of arrest

So if a woman stands up for men at the expense of women, is she actually a feminist any more?
Sit down Leanne. You’re no feminist and neither is Nicola.

Feeling your rage and sharing it sister
I’ll be camped at the court if that happens - with a legion of other women
The shiftiness and slipperiness is something to behold - they’ve been courting a paeodophole apologist yet still don’t accept responsibility. Beyond contempt
Your policing objectives probs were -
To facilitate the lawful right to protest & ensure the safety of those present
Women did not feel very safe - in fact we felt very threatened
Take a look at this horrendous clip (you should feel massive shame at this)
To be clear, it’s ludicrous that the police would bother either woman.
I just have a strong suspicion that the gender gerbils at
@northumbriapol

So the general election is ON.
My vote will be based on several factors, but I will NOT be voting for any candidate/party who does not support women's sex-based rights and upholds the protected characteristic of sex.
Or who is not prepared to support women openly.

How disappointing that you add to this abuse by coming out with such dishonest nonsense
Why are you lionising this? Aren’t you ashamed?
@Care2much18
The judge’s comment that ‘the sooner you try to forget this, the better’ is mind blowing. Was Michelle’s life and that of her baby of so little importance that they should be ‘forgotten’?
I’m guessing your public order commander opted for low key policing at first
A naive error - the few officers there could not cope with the hostility of the counter protestors
They had to call for more back up just to manage - and signs like this went unchallenged
@scottagnew
@GussieGrips
I think you all need to carefully read the definition of a sexual offence and that of indecent exposure/flashing before you comment any further
Showing a merkin does not qualify in either category
Are police in England and Wales enabling sexual assault?
On tonight’s show, I spoke to
@JackMerched
from
@WRNWales
about a police policy which allows female suspects to be strip-searched by male officers who identify as women.
In the words of the wonderful Magdalen Berns, ‘it is not hate to speak the truth’. Neither is it a crime.
Although
@jk_rowling
may want to pop a subject access request in to
@northumbriapol
to see if they’ve recorded a NCHI.
I feel like weeping at the missed opportunities here
Men who indecently expose themselves and get away with it, often get bolder and bolder
These are not minor crimes- they are serious in themselves - and are a massive warning shot

Women across the UK need your leadership now - the passing of this bill has grave consequences for all of us and will make a mockery of the Equality Act
Never thought I’d see women’s rights so contemptuously damaged
Can’t stop thinking about female prisoners right now. How on earth can this be happening and authorities just allowing it?
A male and a rapist twice over heading into a women’s prison
