This week's @thetimes column is about NHS Fife, which surely tolled the bell for the diversity officer, a job made for these times thetimes.com/comment/column…
This is Nicola Sturgeon's legacy: a government that publicly backs the hapless, unprofessional, ideologically captured health board that's persecuting a nurse for asserting her legal right to a single-sex changing room. thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/fife/5…
Never forget: women can't know for sure they're women unless they've had their chromosomes checked, but if a man says he's a woman he's definitely a woman and it is highly offensive to mention his chromosomes, which are entirely irrelevant to whether or not a person is a woman.
This is Scotland’s Information Commissioner. We are so far past any kind of normality here.

If a patient asks for female only intimate care but her doctors and nurses don’t know whether or not they’re female, how do they meet the patients needs?
One of the most frequent justifications for allowing men into women's facilities is 'well we've never had any complaints...' This level of dismissal of a woman's complaint illustrates perfectly the punishment for speaking out. Everything is stacked against women.
entitled to use the f cr. NC - so it was discriminatory to raise the issue at all? GM - yes. J - time for a 5 minute break I think. Court rises.
Gender identity ideology is an unfalsifiable, quasi-religious belief system that demands absurdities of its adherents. Thus we see perfectly intelligent people pretending they’re not sure which sex they are, in the belief that this makes them virtuous.
Isla Bumba doesn’t know if she’s female. She would hazard a guess that she’s female.
As a colleague just observed, Isla doesn't know if she's female, but Upton is damn sure he is.

Yeah we basically have a tax on not being an idiot in this country while being one is lavishly rewarded with state funded largesse.
It cannot be said enough that all the witnesses and lawyers in Peggie arguing no-one knows what a woman is, if men are more violent, and getting the law wrong, were chosen to be where they are by senior public service managers & all paid for by taxation. Sanity had to fund raise
Sandie Peggie’s Tribunal vs Fife Health Board resumes today & in meantime Supreme Court has ruled on what is a woman, allegations of gross misconduct been dropped against Ms Peggie and still Fife Health Board fights on with your money and the confidence of the Health Secretary 🤷🏼♀️

When you tell a woman she must pretend a man is a woman, you’re asserting the right to control her speech and perception of reality, while also trivialising and devaluing her female-specific experience. You’re asking her to agree that ‘woman’ is a concept men can embody at will.
Misgendering is cruel and rude, no matter how many edge cases or straw man arguments people can come up with to try to assert otherwise.
“Too much of modern political thinking is about knee-jerk responses where people take positions they think they ought to hold.” My @HolyroodDaily column on the denigration of debate. holyrood.com/editors-column…
Sex is anatomical. 'Womanhood' and 'femaleness' are not metaphysical or mystical states. I am a woman by virtue of my anatomy. Clearly, if I woke up tomorrow with a male body, I'd have had atypical experiences for a male, because I'd have experienced what it is to exist in the…
Honestly, would you though? Physically, yes, you would be. But you are still you, and you are a woman. It would be a fascinating story to unwind this premise. If you literally physically could change bodies to a genetic level, what does that mean for those words?
"Erasing women and women-specific language and needs based on their sex is not only wrong, but also demeaning, regressive and constitutes one of the worst forms of violence that women and girls can experience," @UNSRVAW Reem Alsalem told the @UN Human Rights Council. #HRC59
