Shocking moment this morning when journalists invited by @DavidTCDavies to hear MPs and feminists discuss #GRA issues @HouseofCommons were told MPs asked not to be named - for their own safety. @Womans_Place_UK @Transgendertrd @jameskirkup @Mermaids_Gender

Looks like this is not true. This article names the MPs & says “...the politicians in attendance would not want to be "grilled" by journalists.” i.e. would not want to be questioned, NOT would not want to be named.https://talkradio.co.uk/news/david-davies-threatened-police-action-holding-meetings-transgender-concerns-18101628380#qQW76774WJqORQzB.99 …

Ok, fair point. It doesn’t alter the fact that intimidation is being deployed to close down discussion. It would be silly if it wasn’t so effective.

So essentially MP's are saying "You can name me as someone who won't speak up". Effectively maintaining the silence and thus complicity with those seeking to close down all discussion concerning women and girls.

Anyone who speaks on either side of the argument gets attacked. You are responsible for this, not MPs.

Women must not have or express a contrary opinion. Dissent is not tolerated. If women had not spoken up forcefully on this issue do you honestly think anyone would have considered our position in all of this. You would have safely & comfortably ignored both us and our concerns

I listened to women’s voices because I knew
@K_IngalaSmith from when we met years ago to discuss violence against women & girls, before the GRA debate. I respected her & felt I should listen to her. Nothing to do with being assertive, aggressive or intimidating. About respect.5 replies 2 retweets 3 likes -
Always & forever, even if we disagree on some things.
