@GenXGrumpy @Telegraph Financially coerced due to inequalities in the surrogate mother's socioeconomic circumstances. Surrogacy agencies & wealthy commissioning parents exploit the most vulnerable women.

Our founder has written a new article for @TheCriticMag about international surrogacy cases coming to the U.K., and the petition before Parliament to strip surrogate mothers of rights at birth.
We’d love to know what you think:

@PolitlcsUK Wes made it clear in his resignation letter he backed Andy Burnham joining a Labour leadership contest. I reckon Wes will have the numbers to stand but knows he needs to win against Andy to get the party united behind him. Maybe Wes doubts Andy can win the by-election. We'll see!

@salltweets So sorry, Sall. This is insanity. Millions of us support you. Please keep fighting. Men will never be women.💜🤍💚

@salltweets You absolutely won this. Your victory was to expose to the world a law of such insanity that it's obvious it must change. You should get a medal for salvaging Australia's reputation - its law is an embarrassment but look at the courage of its women! 💪

I'm really sorry about the result. Thank you for persisting and going through all you've had to go through. Australia will become an example when we need evidence of where 'gender identity' legislation takes us - to a social space where women's right to organise depends on whether there's a man around who decides he wants to join in. It will be the man's decision.

I’m furious. But also - as you say, he’s a man. He was a man yesterday and today he’s still a man.
An angry entitled sneering man who - even if he won every court case in the world and punished every woman - will still be every bit as much a man as I am. For the rest of his life. And he will never be happy because it’s all a fraud.

@salltweets Thank you for fighting. The sex discrimination act in Australia is a tasteless joke. The only protection it offers is to men who want to harass and bully women.
I hope this wakes up millions across the country.

@salltweets @DawnNeesom A judgement that should shame every man who reads it and still stays silent on women's rights. Now is the time for them to speak up too. You are a warrior and have many allies across the world. Thank you 💜 x

I am absolutely devastated
Men who claim to be women have more rights than actual women in Australia.
It is women who are being discriminated against, not the men who claim to be us.
But in a sense, nothing has changed: we will all wake up tomorrow & men will still not be women.

@wesstreeting You've been an excellent Health Secretary Wes. Thank you for recognising that an honest conversation & change of leadership is needed after last week's local election results.

@Peston @breeallegretti Let's go Wes! Definitely need decisive action & a first Lab leadership candidate. Wes has shown himself to be open to listening to different & opposing opinions in the past. That I like about him. I've no time for Starmer's inability to do the same.

I have had the same conversations with MPs as @breeallegretti. The health secretary Wes Streeting, soon to be ex health secretary, is poised to launch his leadership bid tomorrow
Aubrey Allegretti@breeallegretti
Exc with @patrickkmaguire: Wes Streeting has told allies that he is preparing to resign and trigger a leadership contest as soon as tomorrow. The health secretary confronted Sir Keir Starmer this morning during a meeting ahead of the King’s Speech that lasted just 16 minutes over the turmoil engulfing the Labour Party. Allies of Streeting who have spoken to him directly said that he has made clear that he is “going to go for it”. They said that he is likely to resign on Thursday and mount a formal challenge for the leadership One Streeting ally who has spoken to him said: “He is going to go for it. He’s going tomorrow.” Discussions have also been held to prepare for MPs to sign Streeting’s nomination papers, according to one of those with knowledge of the plans. Another who has spoken to him said that claims by Starmer’s allies that he has “bottled it” are wide of the mark and that he made clear in private that he will make a bid for the leadership. A third senior source organising for Streeting said: “If they [Starmer’s supporters] think this is over, they’re going to be disappointed. I’m expecting a move before the end of the week.” A spokesman for Streeting said: “Wes is the Health Secretary, he is proud of his record of falling waiting lists and a recovering NHS. He is not planning to say anything following his meeting with the Prime Minister that might distract from the King’s Speech.”

@alexrogerssky 'Burnham going round London meeting people on vibes' made me smile. His arrival on the groovy train from Manc did have that feel. Still hoping for a surprise Labour name to challenge Starmer!

Labour insider: ‘I think the PM stays - Wes has bottled it. Angela not challenging. Burnham going round London meeting people on vibes. It all feels very David Miliband 2009.’
