š§µ Today @ManduReid gave her key note Conference speech to a staggering 110 people.
This must be a record for the smallest conference speech ever.
It is with profound pain that we tweet this.

A speech high in emotion & platitudes, low in content.
Huge claims, included ābringing down Borrisās government. Yes really.
Since last conference, full of promise around donut economy, Black maternal deaths & more have amounted to nothing.
No campaigns. Zero.

This conference *should have been a vibrant conference celebrating campaign gains- celebrating how motions on paper are transformed into real change.
It could have been a diverse dynamic hub of women recruited during the campaign processā¦.

@ManduReid's leadership has will sadly become knownfor dismissing expertise & the majority view of Party members on self ID.
The Party's assembly was clear in its support of single-sex spaces, yet #wep #groundhogday brings back the same tired motion that was rejected previously

@ManduReid This week Reem Alsalem, the UN #VAWG rapporteur wrote to Hollyrood to intervene on similar self ID policies (#GRRBill).
It is unacceptable to WEP party members that her voice, alongside ours, should be dismissed.

The Party bought a self ID motion that was rejected until the membership was consulted (thank you Sophie Walker).
The Party stalled for years, and when a version of a consultation was conducted it rejected self ID.
