In Run Like a Girl I talk in detail about the attacks, harassment and threats I faced online and offline not because I need sympathy but because we need change. No woman in politics or media should have to endure targeted abuse just for doing her job and speaking up.

The most tone deaf and hypocritical statement you wouldn’t believe until you actually saw it.
You cannot recognize a day of mourning when your government’s anti-trans discriminatory legislation is causing the incredible harm.
The duplicitous double speak is so Orwellian.
