Why I'm proud to call 'Scotland’s worst seaside resort' my home - @msjlindsay in @TheScotsman scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…
At some point we will have to reckon with how class has played into the sex/gender row. Yes, it's been wildly misogynistic- punishing mostly women for holding a reasonable view shared by the majority &, as it turns out, the law. But it's also> thetimes.com/article/3bc4f0…
it is to be hoped she received the same compassion that she has directed towards Sandie Peggie.
Tribunal is having a break following Dr Kate Searle breaking down in tears.
This will be worth paying for 🥳
*Good personal news klaxon!* Delighted to say I've been asked to join The Scotsman as a regular columnist, every Monday, starting next week. Enjoyed writing some pieces for them last month and looking forward to a regular column. Onwards! x
Absolutely thrilled for Jenny. Drummed out of the arts/poetry scene by narrow-minded gender zealots, she now has a newspaper column! 🙌

Guessing Pitlochry Festival Theatre isn't somewhere any feminist woman will be welcome at for the foreseeable, eh? This is unhinged. No, there are no superheroes here, Cummings. Other than the women who, with tenacity and resilience, resist this psychological abuse and coercion.
Watch as Alan Cumming hits out at Donald Trump ahead of his visit to Scotland, calling out his attacks on the trans community in America 👇
It was bad enough when it was mainly just mad poets and theatre-cats saying this daft shit, but when it's people responsible for ensuring your survival in a medical emergency, I just.... Yeah.
Just how is this a Doctor?

Yeah, take THAT. *gestures chardonnairily at everything* Love this wummin and her amazing books too. 😊
Thank you horrible hounders and cancellers -- you brought us together! And now we're unstoppable! And a bit squiffy. ❤️🥳
A fantastic day oot in Glasgow today with the super @MsPollyClark! Now on train home reading up on today's Sandie Peggie revelations and grateful for the chardonnay aspect of our outing. 😳 Oh my days. x
Obligatory second punt for this! Thanks to all readers and new subscribers! Much appreciated xxx
I wrote about why, with the Peggie case, I feel more hope than I ever have that I might live long enough to see the end of the 'gender wars.' On the importance of living in truth & related matters. Enjoy! Statues, as ever, to all paid subscribers! Link in bio/ comments. xx
There's a theme in this new story today about the RCN which is also found in the experience of @McBrideVersus, who is another person up at tribunal today, seeking permission to appeal, covered by @tribunaltweets2. heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…
I wrote about how the women in the Sandie Peggie tribunal sided with the man and ostracised the woman. And link it to my poem 'Beheaded'. Link in next reply. 👇
I've love to be so untalented that I was one of the world's bestselling authors. Once again, the double-standard activist people demonstrate how no reality must be allowed to enter their craniums, and that snark and jibe is all they have. YAWN indeed, little snippet.
I was thinking your money would be better spent going back to Uni so you can become a better writer. Your lack of talent is appalling. YAWN 🥱
A highly skilled working class frontline Scottish NHS nurse, who only wanted to change in private, is being defamed in a courtroom aided and abetted by government. And taxpayers are paying for it.
Personally, I think JK Rowling could fund the cure for cancer, stop all wars single-handedly, and you utterly double-standard-applying sexists would STILL berate her for not, I dunno, solving the climate crisis on Uranus.
Personally I think @jk_rowling would be better spending time doing something actually worth while and use her global influence to highlight the genocide in Gaza where women and children in particular have suffered and been murdered by the Israeli state. So far JK remains silent.
