      The way in which my statements have been grotesquely distorted to meet other people’s agendas is breathtaking. I’m beginning to understand the level of harassment & hatred levelled at trans people. I will be speaking & voting on changes to the GRA & this evidence will be useful.

      There is so much hurt and anger and fear on both sides. I hope as a politician you vote based solely on facts Brian not based on the vitriol of keyboard warriors on both sides. It sounds like a bit of a threat to women to shut up? Pls ensure safeguards.

      It is an objective commentary on my experience and it’s impact on me. It is a plea for decent, civilised debate based on facts rather than insults & assertions without foundation.

          Brian it isn’t objective though it’s emotional. And there is a veiled threat that you will vote against women because you don’t like the way they have responded. But politically it should be solely factual. You represent all constituents.

          @sciencebackwar1 isn’t arguing against equal rights, as far as I’m aware. I don’t, in fact, know anyone who doesn’t support equal rights!

          Quite. Women need and deserve spaces and privacy and the language to define themselves as a sex class. We will willingly support the trans community in claiming the same. But not hand over our own.

          To be fair Brian you comment from a position of middle class white male privilege and it’s easy to remain ‘objective’. For many cis women who feel threatened it’s emotional too, please extend your understanding towards them.

          I am a working class trans woman and the hate groups are campaigning to have my civil rights removed. Anyone who stands with that is abhorrent. The GRA affects zero cis people. ZERO. I will write it again for those not getting it. ZERO

          Only on one side is the mobilisation of hackers, huge inscrutable funds, masked men with fighting dogs, harassment by police/legal proxy, threats to children & family, brazen liars, violent thugs, infiltrators, etc - that side is not #adulthumanfemale 's is it @brianpaddick?

          Huge inscrutable funds: as far as I’m aware, only one side have vast funds available for advertising campaigns and professional videos who don’t publish accounts as Stonewall do!

          Crowd funders for a few grand, raised for specific campaigns do not compare to the millions oiling the wheels of authoritarian ideology & it's strategic vexatious litigation taking a scythe to human rights laws across the world.

          There are piles of evidence of violence against women and girls so much so it is normalised. We know T folk experience abuse too. Women have created spaces to hide and feel safe from men who hurt us so much. Leave us with them and help T create safety too

          problem there is it takes two to tango, and an invitation to the dance was already extended by women advocates. #thereisnodebate and all that? Does it not interest you that pro-trans assertions are typically backed by Stonewall data, whereas women source independent/reviewed?
