NEW: An SNP majority will 'unlock independence', the party have said after a major new poll projected the results of every constituency and regional list
English
@rowingdonna @jamesdavis6939 @annieoneandonly @DrLwyd The first time I've actually seen someone support real exclusion from parkrun.
English
@annieoneandonly @jamesdavis6939 @DrLwyd Vile. Encouraging abuse to be shouted at women because they know men are never female.
A female runner, in the female category at parkrun, but Graham finds this name offensive.
English
You’re not blocked Graham, otherwise you can’t quote post me 😂
A reminder everyone of what he posted.

If you had to pick the two funniest words to misspell in SNP election materials, you’d be hard pressed to improve on “independence” and “education”. Tremendous work by Kate Campbell.

@altoniansaint @SkyFootball We must be watching a different video 😂😂😂 yes he’s nowhere near the ball but it’s just a normal slide tackle

Just minutes after going in front, Portsmouth are down to 10 players as Connor Ogilvie is shown a straight red card 🟥

@SportSEENuk @PinchesLynne @GOVUK This has to be about both safety AND fairness, not trading one off against the other.
English
Exactly this.
Only giving girls a mixed-sex sport option at school puts them off sport for life
Male advantage starts from birth and is significant well before puberty
66% of primary school girls say they prefer girls-only school sport (Youth Sport Trust)
Confidence, dignity and privacy are also justifications for single-sex sport.
English
Urgent!
@GOVUK is proposing to allow boys into all under 18s girls’ school sport - unless it is deemed unsafe…
… ignoring both unfairness & the evidence that it puts girls off sport
Use SEEN in Sport’s guidance in the next post to respond to the KCSIE consultation 1/

@Ikol_98 @JohnMcS92873401 @bellacaledonia Your "Independent study" is from a well known pro independence propaganda blogger? 🙄
Hahaha that's pathetic.

Andrew Neil airbrushing his past. Beautiful.

I played no part in the ‘No’ campaign. Stop your lying. You’re not excused.

@eilidhfife @LabelFreeLady The mad thing about transphobia is that despite it apparently being everywhere, no one can seem to pin it down.
Different target but the exact same tactics being used here as you see with JKR.
A lot of trans allies are responsible for devaluing the word

Those accusations of transphobia made towards Joanna Cherry by Scott Agnew in full:

I was hanging out with a couple new guy friends and one of them said (in relation to my post-separation life improvements) — “you’re like JK Rowling! Minus the transphobia…”
And I was like, “no, with the ‘transphobia’…!”
He was like 😳
I explained what she actually said… /1

@ScotlandSky When the players running in a different direction to commit the foul I've no problem with this sort of thing being a red.
English
🟥 Hearts were reduced to 10 MEN before full-time!
After a VAR check, Marc Leonard’s booking was upgraded to a red following his foul on Robbie Muirhead ⤵️
English
Not sure if everyone knows this but Thomas Kerr is all in men in women’s spaces.
At least he was until he stopped talking about it when it all became a bit embarrassing.
The guy would say anything for votes/power.
Cllr Thomas Kerr@CllrTKerr
I've spent almost a decade being the voice for common sense in Glasgow City Chambers against a knackered SNP and Labour. For me - it’s simple - my community always comes first and that's why my local campaign is picking up so much support 🏴 Both Votes ➡️ Reform

@jamesdavis6939 @Waffles2026 ... designed to trivialise legitimate complaints about this.
It took me a while to realise that by getting dragged into this conversation and all those other 'squirrel!' arguments we're being sidetracked from discussing fairness, the law and parkruns cowardly handling of this.
English
@jamesdavis6939 @Waffles2026 I don't call it a race, but it doesn't make it any less important.
The same people insisting (usually out of nowhere 🚨) that it isn't a race, then go on to deny that it's a sport or that it includes any competitive features whatsoever.
It's proscriptive language 101 ...
English
Reposting this as it’s upsetting the right people. Despite what the critics say, there are first finishers at parkrun. They are listed on the event history pages, and females must have the same opportunities as me to finish first, without cheating males stopping them.
James Davis@jamesdavis6939
@gingerneilnc @tymprqv7r9 @JennyAscendant @DandyDuck118582 @Healthy_Control @How86917508 @JerryMartynCo @alfredlanning23 “Nobody ‘places first’ at parkrun” Jealous?

At least 10 males ran in the Female category in UK parkrun today.
One got 1st Female. His total haul of 1st Female finishes is approaching 100. The highest number of 1st Female finishes held by a male that I’m aware of is 121, so this young man could make history soon if he…

@GJobbing41782 @rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi You're taking this very seriously for something you argue isn't serious, and as we've established don't do.
Can you explain why that is?
English
English
@GJobbing41782 @dynamo_5 @mara_yamauchi CAN MEN BE FEMALE?
Does it help if you pop things into upper case?!🤔😂
English
@GJobbing41782 @rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi No.
How dare you criticise others for lack of experience when clearly it applies to you too.
English
@dynamo_5 @rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi “YOU NEVER TALK ABOUT PARKRUN! HOW DARE YOU SAY WE ARE BEING TOO SERIOUS ABOUT A FUN RUN!”
English
@GJobbing41782 @rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi Do you?
You've never mentioned it before yesterday. You have zero right trying to berate anyone on this.
English
@rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi Do you even do Parkrun?
Why is it bothering you so much?
Just casting around for reasons to be outraged and alighted on an inclusive fun run. Dick.
English
@Ikol_98 @JohnMcS92873401 @bellacaledonia This is probably received wisdom, although I wouldn't be surprised if the campaign for change did get more scrutiny.
It was making the bigger claims and then failing to provide anything other than superficial answers.
English
@JohnMcS92873401 @bellacaledonia Independent studies validated that the BBC was biased against the Yes campaign and Neil's show was a major part of that
English
@rowingdonna @mara_yamauchi @moleatthedoor Very good. Must admit to using 'have you ever done parkrun' when people are repeating twitter myths to tell me my 9 years / 500 credits of experience of it is all wrong.
English
@mara_yamauchi Delighted to reveal our beautiful new parkrun bingo card for all the "stupid c**ts" and "bigoty types" who know men are never female!
Thanks so much to @moleatthedoor. It's so kind of you to do this for us.
Thanks too to the contributors, you do the hard work for us!🫣😂
