The Supreme Court was crystal clear on the definition of a woman across the Equality Act. The Sandie Peggie tribunal judgment has muddied the waters. Imho itâs got the law wrong, made some perverse findings in fact & used biased language. Itâs not binding but needs appealed.

"Ofcom U-turns on TalkTV transphobia dismissal" - @pinkpaper. Among my misdeeds, apparently, is that I said this on air: "By definition, if youâve had to get a piece of paper to say that you are a woman, you must accept then that you are man." I'm happy to be found guilty of

Answer: it helps girls. It tells girls they have the right to things of their own. It tells girls they have the right to say 'no'. It reminds girls that the desires of boys do not supersede their feelings, their rights, their discomfort or their safety.

Gay and bisexual men donât want glitter officers waving rainbow flags at Pride. We want to be believed when weâre the victims of crime. Thatâs the true measure of an âinclusiveâ police force - that it polices without fear or favour. https://t.co/XVaeCux53k

There was no such thing as the LGBT+ community in the 80s. Itâs insulting to the lesbians and gay men who faced terrible struggles to make up such absurd lies.

I think leaders are secretly delighted they can use the Supreme Court ruling to kick out the pushy, narcissistic men who have been trying to take over their organisations. Theyâll be popping champagne corks at HQ.

Homosexuality is real and children should learn about it. Gender identity ideology is an extreme, contested, minority belief and has no place in the classroom. Thanks to Talk TV and Jeremy Kyle for speaking to me.
