      It is not setting Twitter (or anywhere) alight. Scroll through the tweets on the hashtag. These professional orgs are lucky if they get 30 likes and 10 RTs on a post.

      Its not like twitter is not full of women who are angry (really angry!) and motivated about these issues. Perhaps the communications people are scratching their heads and wondering why they are not getting more engagement.

      I'll tell you for free: Its because individually & collectively you have lost the trust of your base, by not standing up for the definition of women: for rights under the Equality Act as a sex, ability to talk about the issue of sex self ID & single sex services without fear

      What does the ‘Manifesto for Women and Girls’ say about the question over the definition of woman, and single sex services? .....A question that features in the main party manifestos and is currently controversial and politically very live. ....? Nothing.

      I havent looked at @fawcettsociety for ages as irrelevant to important issues. Shocked how few likes they get - often just 4 per post but have 55 thousand followers. Either bots or sliding into irrelevant oblivion

          2/ women should be allowed talk about male violence in the context of retaining single-sex spaces. This was under an article she'd written about how women shouldn't be harassed for... talking about & taking steps to avoid male violence.
