Realist. Sex and gender impartiality (formerly BBC). Fact-based account. #AHF 🎗️
Beware the editor who tells you she / he has to be impartial on whether or not people can change sex. They’ve just told you a. they don’t understand impartiality and b. they don’t understand sex either
I’ve been talking about men larping as women working in the NHS for quite some time. I even commissioned a report on it. Let’s make the NHS safer for patients and get rid of any staff who pretend not to be their biological sex. You can read our report here.…
If you abolish the right to trial by jury in fraud and complex cases, you establish the principle that some justice is beyond the understanding of the public. This is dangerous elitism. spiked-online.com/2025/07/22/tri…
The legend that is Julia Long @OnChairs masterfully breaks through the gaslighting and entitled male talking over her. Men are no kind of “women”.
👉"You're not any sort of woman and please don't insult women by making that claim", says Julia Long [@onchairs] ...as entitled bloke GLEN - who says he's a woman - continues to shout over her. 🗣
Hello @BBCRadioScot, if this is what she said, you’ve broadcast a dangerous ill-motivated smear against one named woman and countless unnamed ones. What are you going to do about that?
Hannah Bardell on Radio Scotland just now - @joannaccherry has caused a lot of distress to trans people and Nicola Sturgeon was right, 'anti-trans' people are bigots and racist. Now she's on to TIE - fully supportive, obviously.

Who is more convincing on RHSE guidance, Julia Long @OnChairs or Glenique?

This is absolutely the most unhinged, disgusting, misogynistic rants I have ever seen in my life. @WomenReadWomen is right — most women have no idea how much these men hate us.
‘Trans rights’ is forcing women to clean up their menstrual blood in front of men, ‘transphobia’ is asking for basic privacy.
My analysis of the Equality Act as it relates to sport & as clarified by the Supreme Court. Lawful single sex sport must be provided on the basis of biological sex. Sport categories called women's/female & men's/male must relate to biological sex. x.com/cathydevine56/…
A lovely day in Parliament yesterday speaking at the Women's Rights All-Party Parliamentary Group about the Equality Act & Supreme Court ruling as it relates to sport. Thanks to @RosieDuffield1 @SportSEENuk @WomensRightsNet & all there. My talk is here:
Misleading article. Claim 1: 'the Court were tasked with defining the meaning of the words for the strict purpose of understanding the EA in relation to gender representation on public boards'. Reality: The Court clarified the meaning of sex for the purposes of the Equality Act.

Where to start with this? The head of a primary school uses a woman as a positive example of masculinity for boys, to "encourage empathy, kindness, showing emotions.." "Undoing the deeply ingrained gender stereotypes in our society takes time" she says. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/1…
Women throwing women under the bus takes many forms. This one is particularly egregious.
NHS Fife female consultants who backed Dr Beth Upton don't have to share changing room with him - scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/news/politics/…
The @nypost honored my request to change its altered headline on an aggregate of my story for @FoxNews. The Post's headline no longer refers to the athlete in this story as "her." The original headline on Fox News didn't refer to the athlete as "her." nypost.com/2025/07/18/spo…
Giant bloke Robin White was left ‘shaken’ by women telling him to stay out of their toilet. Now we learn Beth Upton, a six foot man in his 20s, was ‘sobbing’ and had to be escorted to his car because a small woman in her 50s called him out. These people are crackpots.
Yesterday at least 6 males ran in the Female category in UK parkrun. One got 1st Female. His haul of 1st Female finishes is now approaching 70. He ran London Marathon in the Senior Men’s category so is willing & able to stay out of the Female category when the rules say so…
Is anyone at @BBCNews - senior or otherwise - asking why the stand-out and most editorially-telling moment from the NHS Fife/Peggie tribunal this week remains unreported across its vast swathes of platforms and outlets? thetimes.com/comment/column…
