@AnnieBishop123 @MattJury_Law @Keir_Starmer @HarrietHarman @jessphillips Quite. Thanks for sharing.
I sensed nothing but empty platitudes from him on this knot of issues. A talker, not a walker.

“If violence against women and girls is truly a national priority, it must be reflected not in words, but in action.” - @MattJury_Law

Speaking of whom, the strange silence of relevant UK gov ministers on Romanian @eurovision entry 'Choke Me', aired by @BBC, suggests that indeed "the rhetoric around VAWG amounts to little more than performative politics."
Andrew "Choke her" Tate thrives in that soil.
Matthew Jury@MattJury_Law
My piece for The Times is out today. If violence against women and girls is truly a “national emergency”, why has the UK’s response to Andrew Tate’s alleged crimes been defined by delay, drift and bureaucratic paralysis? I argue that, despite repeated public statements from ministers, the British authorities have failed to act with the urgency this case demands — while Tate has remained free to move across jurisdictions and cultivate an image of untouchability. The women I represent have waited years for justice. The question now is whether the UK genuinely intends to pursue it, or whether the rhetoric around VAWG amounts to little more than performative politics. “Come and get me,” Tate has said. So far, Britain has not. Read my article in the thread below:

I wish it didn’t feel so clear that UK gov knows AT is protected by @POTUS

Here are comments on our petition against the Eurovision song 'Choke Me'. Signed by people across 100 countries. We've been contacted by survivors & people who witnessed their mums being strangled by a partner. @BBC @lisanandy @HarrietHarman @angelascanlon @Rylan @sarajcox

@AnnOlivarius @NoSchoolSexism Absolutely. What matters is the totality of relationships, messaging, habits, interactions, lived values... not just little discrete moments of conscious delivery

@MenAtWork_MC @NoSchoolSexism Kids spot the difference between what schools do and what schools say a mile off. Kids know what a school will tolerate vs what it says it won't tolerate.
All the well-meaning RHSE in the world don't matter when schools don't walk the walk.

Interesting points in this blog from @NoSchoolSexism
culture shift, not siloed focus in erratically provisioned, under-resourced and scarcely timetabled pockets, required

@Dr_Jo_S You are so right. A year ago I saw this with my mum. The hospice care experience was as close to a positive and humane ending as could exist alongside the pain. Wishing you well.

I cannot stress the importance of hospice care funding.
I am experiencing my partner die surrounded by the care, attention, experience expertise, compassion, and kindness found in such a place.
We are blessed to be here.

Is it legal in the UK for schools to teach, uncritically, in PSHE / RSE sessions, that ‘Gender Identity’ is a ‘given’ reality?

English
@HildegardP @SafeSchools_UK @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU Not in these cases - they seem more like hastily-assembled slides from legacy lobby groups that have entered the ‘auto-pilot’ resource pool of time-poor, unsure, unsupported teachers. That’s how PSHE rolls, in reality, more often than one might imagine. Not always, but often.

@SafeSchools_UK @MenAtWork_MC @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU Is the attachment to Gender Identitarianism coming via UNICEF "Rights Respecting Schools" awards?
English
@SafeSchools_UK @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU Thanks. I thought so
English
@MenAtWork_MC @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU No. This is illegal under the Eduction Act. If this is happening parents need to make a formal complaint. If this doesn’t work they will need to take legal action against the school. legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1996/56/…

On the eve of Thurs 14th May I’m thinking of making an in-person protest at @BBC HQ in London, to raise awareness of the risk of normalizing ‘choking’ (strangulation, in porn-speak) implicit in Romania’s @Eurovision entry ‘Choke Me’.
Do you think it’d be worthwhile?
English
@cathy_ahf @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU It’s a mixed bag, as ever. That said, the risk exists.
English
@MenAtWork_MC @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU There are plenty of sensible teachers around, but sadly, like elsewhere, the activist ones seem to cause a disproportionate amount of damage.
English
@cathy_ahf @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU It certainly isn’t, where that is being done. I’m happy to know a number of teachers - NEU members included - who would never, have never and will never spout the lie.
English
@MenAtWork_MC @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU @DanielKebedeNEU in his capacity within NEU has been complicit in failing children by allowing NEU to promote gender identity ideology to teachers.
Believing that GI trumps biological sex is not compatible with safeguarding
English
@cathy_ahf @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU That’s what I thought, thank you. Sadly, from emails I’ve had recently, the ‘Genderbread Man’ is still doing the rounds!
English
@MenAtWork_MC @SeenStem @SexMatters @NEULGBEducator @bphillipsonMP @DanielKebedeNEU It’s clear from next academic year (see pic and link) that the answer is no.
The current statutory guidance is less clear cut but still says must not promote stereotypes.

@EastLight You posted a *swastika* alongside an accusation of bigotry against women who refuse to credulously accede to the most singularly asinine idea ever to gain traction: that men are women just because they say so.
Don’t lecture me on using emotional leverage, please.

@BoozeAndFagz @ZiaYusufUK They’re both utterly abysmal. Imagine siding with the lolling toff! A plague on both their houses.
