If you want proof that the letters LGB and TQ+ don’t belong together, look at the “shocking news” that the UK is now the worst country in Western Europe for LGBTQ+ rights. There are three reasons for the low position in ILGA’s ranking: * The UK has rejected attempts to introduce “Gender self-ID”. * The UK Supreme Court has clarified that the terms “sex” and “sexual orientation” in equalities legislation are based on biological sex. * The UK has severely curtailed sex denialist interventions (known by activists as “gender affirming care”) for minors. All these points are good news for lesbians, gay men and bisexuals. They have consolidated our rights and the meaning of homosexuality in UK law. They protect proto-gay children and LGB teens from harmful interventions. The people who are angry about all this are those who think you can be “born in the wrong body”, “change sex” or simply choose whether you are a man or a woman, regardless of your biological sex. They are the people who think some lesbians have penises. They are the people who profit from adolescents’ distress by prescribing drugs that disrupt the endocrine system. They are the deluded parents who think they must acquiesce in children’s demands. The UK is forging ahead in re-establishing the rights of people whose sexual orientation is towards their own sex. I am immensely proud of all we have achieved - and delighted with the UK’s low position in ILGA’s gender-crazed rankings. Let’s stay at the bottom!

@WingsScotland @ScotlandSky Hardly worth it for 30 seconds

@ScotlandSky Completely missing the issue - time wasn't up. The game wasn't over. The pitch should have been cleared and the players brought back.

🗣️ "The VAR has correctly given the goal." 🗣️ "His duty is the protection of players." Dermot Gallagher praises VAR and discusses what happened at full-time as Celtic beat Hearts to win the title ⤵️

@AnnonymousAm @michaeljmarra East Lothian high school pupils have all been issued a Chromebook?

@michaeljmarra Funny thing is Marra my two daughters were issued iPads thanks to the ScotGov so do keep up sweetheart we all know u want Sarwars position. Was it not 1 of the councils in Stirling under labour & tory refused kids a bowl of soup & a roll.

The SNP are today promising every school kid an imaginary back pack to hang on the handle bars of their imaginary bike. It will include a pocket for the fictitious laptop they never received. Yesterday Labour published a serious plan to change Scotland for the better.

@mrsDugskullery @JJRCC1 Not quite,would imagine the majority of people would be happy to let the green MP wear whatever she wants in parliament and the women in Iran should be able to wear what they want

Isn't it interesting that all those people who want women in Iran to be free to wear whatever they like, are up in arms about Green MP Hannah Spencer wearing what she likes. In fact most have a history of controlling what women can and can't wear. 😬🤦🤷

Some people felt it was very important for Angela Carini to apologise. With all that has transpired, I’d like to think, with the same sense of kindness and propriety, they are as willing to return that courtesy.

@hibeemedia What would be the point of that,Gray will get the rest of the season,but he needs to overcome his limitations pretty quickly

Sack him

@MrMalky @ForWomenScot The first decent policy he has come up with,still not voting for him though!

We know there is cynicism but, trust us, a lot of work went into this. We believe it's genuine and we will hold them to it. We have to change hearts and minds to win and this is a big one!

@unisontheunion @jeremycorbyn What is she gonna do..'protect the dolls'....😭

@WomensRightsNet @moomintroll41 @unisontheunion It's the reason my wife left the union after thirty five years

An interesting statement from @unisontheunion following the Darlington nurses tribunal. Their mainly female membership should pay VERY close attention. They are effectively stating that they are not at all interested in defending women’s sex-based rights in the workplace. Unison are ideologically captured and rendered useless to their female members. unison.org.uk/news/article/2…

I am a committed trade unionist of 35 years standing. I am proud of everything the trade union movement has achieved throughout history. But its abandonment of women fighting to defend their sex-based rights makes me ashamed. Whenever there is a successful tribunal or court result for women - such as today, with the Darlington nurses - mainstream unions are nowhere to be seen. And invariably they lament the outcome. Women are being forced to rely on the Free Speech Union and Christian groups to fight their corner. It’s an utter disgrace.

My position hasn't changed in the slightest. What you, and many other men, fail to grasp, possibly because you're so used to women coddling men's feelings you see it as the natural order of things, is that while a trans-identified man is absolutely and rightly free to dress and refer to himself however he likes in our society, that doesn't give him rights over women's beliefs and speech. I don't believe a man literally becomes a woman when he identifies as one, and as I have freedom of speech, I have the right to call him a man. The verifiable truth of sex forms the legal basis for women's rights and for safeguarding. Nothing reveals your inability to grasp this issue, or your fundamental sexism, more than the fact that you, a man, are assuming the right to dictate to women how they should speak about men.

UK taxpayers have the honour of funding the billionaire royals to the tune of £132 Million for 2025-26, offset in part by their Duchy, etc. profits And when they need public security & travel for events, yup, we pay again!! #AbolishTheMonarchy
