Trump’s presidency is literally a death sentence for many in low-income countries as life-saving HIV treatment is cut. We can sit back and watch in horror, or we can act.

For many, Trump's presidency is a death sentence. Here’s how lives can be saved

Donald Trump’s cuts to US overseas aid could, among many other effects, leave the world facing an HIV pandemic that kills millions of people. But we can all step up to help fill the gap

Starmer’s shame: Women and children will die because of his cuts to international aid. He has betrayed the legacy of towering Labour figures like Barbara Castle

Why women and children will die because of 'hard man' Keir Starmer's aid budget cut

By taking life-saving funds from the world’s most vulnerable women and children, Keir Starmer has abandoned Labour’s principles and the party’s recent manifesto pledge

Is Scotland safe for children? Next week Scottish Parliament will decide on call for whistleblowing office so concerns about child abuse can be dealt with quickly & in confidence. No more empty promises, time for action say campaigners ✍️in @TheScotsman www.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Horrific Glasgow paedophile ring shows how Scotland fails vulnerable children

Scotland needs whistleblowing office so that concerns about possible child abuse, sexual and physical, can be reported and investigated more quickly

Practical impact is a basic rate tax payer gives a charity £100 - charity gets £125; higher rate payer gives £70 (£100 with tax relief) charity still gets £125. Doesn’t seem fair.

Are there any tax policy experts out there? Or politicians with an interest in tax and charity giving?
What is the rationale for giving higher rate tax payers tax relief on their charity giving but not to those who pay basic rate. Asking as a confused basic rate tax payer 😂

As research reveals a 50-fold increase in kids with gender distress, Trump’s views on sex and gender expose how the left here failed them and women. Me in The Scotsman www.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

The left must realise that Donald Trump's gender views strike a chord with voters

It’s time for UK politicians to stop blaming people who are fed up of being told they are on the wrong side of a culture war

In a few weeks time the Afghanistan MEN’S cricket team will play in ICC’s world championships, while Afghan women and girls are denied their most basic human rights. There must be a sporting boycott to help end this sex apartheid. Me ✍️ in The Scotsman www.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

Taliban’s shocking treatment of women shows why world must impose apartheid-style sporting boycott

Given the Taliban has banned women from taking part in sport and even speaking in public, Afghanistan’s cricket team should not be welcome at the International Cricket Council’s Men’s Champions Trophy

Lucy is quoted in this article by Hannah Barnes on the arguments made by the Scottish Government in the For Women Scotland case, and the negative consequences for women. www.newstatesman.com/comment/2024...

The Scottish government is ignoring women’s rights

A hearing at the Supreme Court exposed just how flawed its position on gender recognition is.

Sturgeon’s friend Swinney has been left to clean up the mess created by her obsession with identify politics….The lanyards are fraying now…But women are still dying prematurely because of their sex. That is Nicola Sturgeon’s enduring legacy. Me in @TheScotsman

www.scotsman.com/news/opinion...

As SNP government contradicts itself over ‘pregnant men’, the real gender scandal goes unnoticed

Women earn less than their male counterparts, will have a smaller pension and may even be denied life-saving medicine – all because of their sex
