      Woman’s Place UK was formed last year to platform women’s voices after incidents where women were threatened and assaulted for voicing concerns on the GRA.

      Our focus is on preserving and improving the rights of women and making sure their voices and concerns are heard and their rights upheld. This is our primary function.

      Politicians need to act to guarantee women’s voices will be heard and their concerns addressed free from threat, abuse, harassment or violence. So far, they have failed. So our campaign continues.

      I’m meeting representatives of @Womans_Place_UK soon to listen, understand & seriously consider their genuinely-held concerns. I will hold a similar meeting with representatives of the transgender community. It would be helpful if my genuine attempts to consult are supported.

      Apparently over the last 3 weeks Brian has had a crash-course in trans issues and is now the perfect person to decree what transphobic hate looks like? 🤔pic.twitter.com/6JxIdta89i

      Why are you meeting rabid transphobes to discuss my future? I don't condone this at all. What has the GRA got to do with them? Do you do this for all minorities? Will you be meeting with other hate groups? This whole thing is a bloody farce and a stitch up of trans people.

      I am not meeting rabid transphobes. I am trying to understand why people are taking such diametrically opposed positions. Being equally criticised for meeting transgender people seems to me that I doing something right.

          What has me being able to get a birth cert change in an easier fashion have to do with these people? They are trying to roll back the equality act. None of the things they are concerned about having anything to do with the GRA. They are already covered.

          "These people" are females whose ID says they're female because they were born female. Equality Act recognizes sex-based oppression, which gender identity nullifies; if a male can say he's a woman, sex is disappeared. Biological sex is critical to women's rights. You're ignorant.

          I admire what you are doing Brian. It's hard, and it's easy to see why some folks are intimidated and put off from engaging.

          It's pretty hard to calibrate yourself around this argument at the moment - but it is important. Beyond attraction and indentification, we still need to live together. Good luck.

          “Someone criticised me for meeting a trans person, therefore trans people are bad.” Yes let’s use this logic for all minority groups! Homosexuals, black people, Jews, Muslims...

          What are the criteria for such meetings? I have a number of trans lawyer contacts who would undoubtedly be interested in adding to the conversation.

          With all respect Brian, unless you're trans, you're not the person who has to live with transphobia, and who can name its more subtle forms when you see it. You need to believe trans people when they call it out.

          With all respect, Chick unless you're female you're not the person who has to live with sexist discrimination and have one's hard win privileges threatened and who can name more subtle forms of misogyny when they see it. You need to believe actual women's concerns when they talk

          No worries. Did you experience discrimination in the workplace for having children? Or the presumption that you will have children?
