What did councils actually know about Pride in Surrey founder Stephen Ireland before he was arrested for child rape? I've been speaking to several women who were trying to raise the alarm as much as six years ago...will lessons be learned? https://t.co/PgaLWqlLZ9

In 2021, reports of a Surrey Pride founder’s ‘abuse of power’ were ignored. Four years on, he’s been jailed for a string of sexual offences

This is from a long-standing client who says that if my views align with JK Rowling's they won't be buying my planner this year. While I wouldn't call it 'spewing' ... like Rowling, I believe there are two biological sexes: male and female. And that while people are free to

In case, you’re not aware this tweet isn’t from a troll, but from a former friend of over 25 years @mcashmanCBE I don’t normally make a habit of scrapping with people I once regarded as friends publicly. And I’m frankly astonished that some former friends feel it’s a necessary

Very pertinent film (edited down) in which two former pro male cyclists (Matt Stephens and Pippa York/Robert Millar) - who now work as cycling commentators - chat sexist, unscientific nonsense and @WomensRightsNet take it apart:
We made a video over a year ago about men in women’s sport and featured “Pippa York”. Here it is: https://t.co/r6Nmw9sU4Y

A handful of activist Lords have no business undermining an independent regulator's guidance on the Supreme Court ruling. That judgment didn’t make new law, it clarified it. Overturning it would mean rewriting the 2010 Equality Act. Women’s single-sex spaces are protected and
Exclusive from @Geri_E_L_Scott A group of peers is at the centre of a House of Lords plot to derail guidance protecting women’s single-sex spaces, leaked documents have revealed. The group, which includes a former head of Stonewall and one of its founder members, is seeking to

This is a very important case with wide reaching implications. If Allison wins her case against Stonewall, the law will regard them as joint tortfeasors for going after her job. That could in principle bring a swift end to cancel culture.
Public Announcement: Stonewall My case against Stonewall is being heard by the Court of Appeal next week on 21 and 22 October at the Royal Courts of Justice, The Strand, London WC2A 2LL. I can confirm the appeal will be live-streamed. It will be accessible from the judiciary’s

After the Heaton Park synagogue atrocity on October 2, there was much rhetoric about the duty to make Jews feel safe in the U.K. That commitment lasted less than a fortnight, as the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans makes all too clear https://t.co/Uy1wdKmNNi

Cancelling an event about women’s rights to women only spaces because deranged men are threatening it actually proves the premise of the event.

About 25 years ago I bought the title of ‘Duchess’ for a story on how to change your name, title etc. I have a certificate somewhere. As of tonight, I give that title up. It seems the right thing to do. And I haven’t done anything remotely dodgy. Honest guv.

Wow, look at Lia (Will) Thomas now. Big lump of a man in an off the shoulder dress and another award. A few years ago I’d be like: ‘Oh live and let live, no harm done’. Now: Big ‘effin AGP who cheats women out of awards’ Not sorry.

Recent incidents of antisemitism from NHS doctors filled me with shame and anger. I will not tolerate it - or any other racism. The NHS must be a safe harbour from the rising tide of racism in our society. Enough is enough.

A child forced to bear a rapist’s name. The family courts call it “child welfare.” I call it family-court-ordered abuse, plain and simple. No child should ever be made to carry the name of the man who raped her mother.

Fattaneh, 38, told the @DailyMail that, as a woman, she has no choice but to fight back against the regime in Iran. 'As a woman, I always have two choices: either surrender and be oppressed, or choose to fight. I tell myself that surrendering means facing death every moment.'
