      The opening statement contained the suggestion that people who want to “debate the rights of trans people to exist”.

      This seems like emotive language, designed with the express purpose of quelling the voices of those who assert that despite advances in medicine, it is not literally possible to change sex.

      Replying to @SCMcG @brianpaddick and

      If people are pushed towards starting the debate under the unproven and unprovable premise that “transwomenare women” then it is impossible for all of those who will be affected to debate without prejudice.

      The use of that phrase to frame the whole debate also suggests that the speaker is in no way impartial and unlike you, is not likely to take an objective and balanced approach.

      If I have wholly misunderstood, and only human rights were being discussed, I am happy to be corrected. But I feel it is essential that we can define these issues clearly. If the two sides claim “woman” means different things, all debate must necessarily be at cross-purposes.

      Brian, I appreciate your attempts to listen, but you perhaps cannot hear the dogwhistle misogyny women hear when the words "[transgender] inclusion, rights and services" are juxtaposed with "no debate". I hear an incursionary push into female space, with all objections silenced.

      Neither of us were at the meeting but I have the advantage of knowing @LizBarkerLords. Liz is trying her level best to manage what has become a very volatile situation. Trans people suffer appalling prejudice & discrimination & also need safe spaces to discuss their own issues.

      So do women? What are you doing about that? Or do they not matter?

      Yes women do and I have been meeting women’s groups to end violence against women and girls ever since I entered Parliament and before that, as a police officer.

      But you are jow happy to throw women under the bus for trans peiple. Why are you not dealing with the fact transwomen do not feel safe because of male violence. Why not make male spaces safer?

      No one is throwing women under the bus and I can only assume you’re deliberately not reading my responses about male violence because it doesn’t suit your argument.

          So rather than make male spaces safer for transwomen, women are expected to share their spaces. How is this not throwing women under the bus? We are expected to share with males, men do not give up anything. How is this fair?
