An unsurprisingly good evidence session from my former colleague Dr Rebecca Mason. Rebecca is one of the most impressive people I’ve worked with, SHE should be a parliamentarian!

"No wonder it's putting off young women to stand as politicians. They just don't want to face that in everyday life." - Dr Rebecca Mason, @youngwomenscot. Watch our session on MSP candidate diversity: ow.ly/fhPm50Uafja

This week I spoke to STV about the deterioration of young women's mental health. Women continue to fall through the gaps in government mental health policy. We should provide suitable treatment alternatives in local communities for young women through a person-centred approach.

Important research findings here about the increased poor mental health amongst young women - featuring important research by ⁦@rmason717⁩ on the relationship between women’s mental health and the cost of living crisis. Great work news.stv.tv/west-central/c…

My 5 Medieval Aberdeen stories are snapshots of lives, inspired by objects owned by women. I wrote them with the mentorship of @forthygreatpain, whose own work has so elegantly represented medieval women’s voices in fiction. My stories on display here: aberdeenregisters.org/2024/10/

🔴 NEW LONG READ: Online misogyny is being turbo-charged by the manosphere and incel culture... and the toxic algorithms target young men. So could helping them see their role in finding solutions to end violence against women make a difference? bit.ly/404Apfa

Shocked and dismayed to discover that not one woman is standing as a UK General Election candidate in my constituency, Glasgow Southside. We desperately need to increase women's representation in politics in Scotland and the UK.

We hope MSP's will make the right decision for young women who deserve the right to access healthcare free from intimidation and harassment on 12 June. You can read our briefing here: youngwomenscot.org/policy-consult…

At @youngwomenscot we believe the Bill does not seek to stop or ban anti-choice protests or activity, or limit freedom of religious expression. Young women believe that the safe access zone should apply to both pro-choice and anti-choice protests in the interest of fairness.

This week MSP's will vote on Stage 3 of Gillian Mackay's Safe Access Zones Bill. At @youngwomenscot we urge MSP's to pass the Bill and reject amendments that could seriously limit the scope of the Bill to protect abortion clinic users, particularly young women, from harassment.
