I'm a 6 ft cis woman who looks like the back end of a bus. My first experience of being challenged using the women's toilets was aged 16 (I don't remember it because it happens so often, but my friend who was with me does). This was in the late 70s... We have a whole new generation of nastiness now.

The stand-out phrase, for me, was "...she did not
demonstrate a suitable depth of understanding of enough issues facing groups with other protected characteristics including race and disability."

Time for the gun fact again. The USA has a school shooting on average once a week. The UK last had a school shooting in 1996. The difference? Gun control.

And some of that 0.001% own media outlets and social media outlets thats sole purpose is to convince the poorest 50% that the 0.001% aren't the problem, and encourage them to vote for political parties who will make the rich richer , and the poor poorer

Elon, love, they were voted in. You weren't. Oh and btw Elon, love, just remind me where you were born? Also could you show the evidence for your statement ie birthplace data by vote choice? No? Thought not.

It’s the Flag Shagger Express

#C4News went above & beyond, reporting:

"a nurse has won a harassment claim against Dr Beth Upton."

No she didn't. NHS FIFE harassed her, not Upton.

This is almost defamatory, & they mentioned none of the dismissed parts or the implications for trans women in SS spaces. I complained to Ofcom.

Woof

Indeed. I was pointing out that this didn't need to be an issue unless they chose to let it be one...

Yes! I was pointing out that this didn't need to be an issue unless they chose to let it be one...

Can they not change the rules to make it trans inclusive??

That was my first thought but there is a 20 person scientific station there and they probably don't want them either...
