@gilescoren Noo! Love this podcast! It’s genuinely my favourite.

Well, it’s goodnight from me. And it’s goodnight from her. The podcast comes to an end after 6 Years and well over 200 episodes. Back where it started with everyone wearing masks… podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/gil…

This article makes you feel sad, fearful and finally angry at the fuckers who decided to green light this experiment on kids. I defy any supporter of this trial to read it and still think it’s a grand idea.

@LissaKEvans Superb opening sentence. I adore these books! Thanks for creating them.

Yesterday I was asked which book of mine is my favourite - which, of course, is like being asked to name a favourite child. But I definitely have a favourite first sentence . It's from 'Old Baggage', my novel about a former Suffragette...

So just to be clear, it's completely ok to edit politician's speeches, but never ok for women presenters to silently express the views of the majority of people by highlighting the absurdity of Orwellian language-policing...? (Only *women* can and do get pregnant).

@CUSocOfWomen Good for you! Congratulations and thank you!

We are the Cambridge University Society of Women. As the only openly and proudly single-sex society for women at the university, our mission is to facilitate women speaking freely in an all-female environment. We will be campaigning and fundraising to help women's sex-based causes. Launching today, we are now offering membership to female students of Cambridge University! Please contact us via X or Instagram for more information.

@johnarmstrong5 Excellent interviews tonight!

Proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with my friend and comrade in academic freedom, Michael Ben-Gad.

This is a national disgrace. How have things come to this? Starmer pledged that Jews are welcome and safe in Britain. That he stands shoulder to shoulder with the Jewish community and will use the full force of his government to prove it. Will he back those words with action and guarantee that Jewish fans can walk into any football stadium in this country? If not, it sends a horrendous and shameful message: there are parts of Britain where Jews simply cannot go.

@nickwallis Really appreciate your reporting today Nick!

[GL comes back and Judge tells him that's that for now and he needs to come back on 29 Oct] [everyone is asked to clear court so J can talk to counsel] [we're done]

P as to criminal damage - she changed her cover that day and didn't see any damage - it's the sort of thing she would notice. GL threw the phone onto a road. It is likely there would be damage. There is no reason to...

@nickwallis @Glinner Done! Thanks for your excellent journalism.

@Glinner This is the link to the tip jar - I know it looks user-unfriendly, but it is a safe and secure online payment portal run I have been using for years. All donations deeply welcome (I'll also put you on my newsletter mailing list): store29806256.company.site

Hi all - thanks so much for the kind words. I have moved things around and will be back tomorrow for the second day of @Glinner's trial. If you found my live-tweeting useful I would be grateful if you could put a tiny amount in my tip jar - link next. x.com/nickwallis/sta…

BREAKING: 💥 Single-sex spaces must be based on biology, @EHRC says. New statutory guidance will warn shops, gyms, NHS and public bodies that women could sue for harassment if orgs allow trans-identifying men into women's spaces @thetimes thetimes.com/article/e94f25…

@nickwallis Thanks very much Nick. Really appreciate the detailed account.

... tomorrow looks like it won't be for another five weeks] [Everyone leaves]

I am at Westminster Magistrates court sitting directly across the courtroom from Graham Linehan who is sitting in the dock, about to stand trial for harassment and damaging a camera. That is @sharrond62 in the photo who has arrived to support @Glinner

Labour had a chance to admit they got it wrong. Instead, Keir Starmer told Bridget Phillipson to gaslight the Commons with a shameless rewrite of history — pretending Labour had always been on the side of women. Nobody bought it. They claimed the govt accepts the Supreme Court ruling — yet Labour, SNP, and Lib Dem MPs queued up to attack it. One even called for puberty blockers to be brought back for children. They refused to criticise their unions who vow to ignore the law. Refused to apologise to Rosie Duffield. Refused to recognise the bravery of JK Rowling or Sharron Davies. I’ve always known what a woman is. I didn't need a Supreme Court ruling to say so. And under my leadership, the Conservative Party will hold this government to account 👇

Scottish women today:

Spare a thought today for the UK employers, government departments, health boards, academic institutions and sporting bodies who've been breaking equality law to appease activist groups. So many HR manuals to pulp. So many out-of-court settlements to pay. #SupremeCourt

bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvgq… A stunning victory for women. And for science. Nice to have something to celebrate, for a change.

The internet never forgets. Don’t let these people either. They stood on the side of insanity and nothing they now do or say is going to erase that.

I have a massive smile plastered on my face. The country (and the rest of the world who will be looking on) owe a debt of gratitude to the brave women who took on the State and won.

‘History says, Don’t hope On this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime The longed-for tidal wave Of justice can rise up, And hope and history rhyme.’ Seamus Heaney was born on this day in 1939.

@RosieKayK2CO @TheEveningStand Well said! This ideological posturing is tarnishing so much of the arts.

The Tate's sorry decline is a chilling lesson for London's museums Preachy and pernicious ideology is turning away visitors at record rates Tonight’s @TheEveningStand by me, Rosie Kay.
