Reasons to be Cheerful PART II
1. Scottish police back off unlawful prosecution
2. Demonstration against @Womans_Place_UK pitiful, both in numbers and chanting
3. BBC defend rights of its journalists to report
4. @WeAreFairCop report #TheInvisibleStrand going to @EHRC, every PCC and the Home Secretary
5. @FemmeLoves still not arrested
6. @amnesty 'shocked' at language used against women at protest against #FiLiA2021
7. @8RosarioSanchez being eloquent and passionate on @BBCWomansHour
8. the Nolan Report into Stonewall being bloody brilliant and widely heard
9. The dinosaurs!
10. @JoPhoenix1 taking legal action against the OU
11. Widespread revulsion against treatment of Professor Stock
12. Boris Johnson contgratulating @ALLIANCELGB
13. @EBSWA webinars!
Not a bad Baker's dozen. And it's only going to get better. Highlights for next year include
1. @MForstater case in the Employment Tribunal
2. @BluskyeAllison case against Stonewall
3. The comedy challenge of Mermaids to the Charity Commission
4. #FairCopAppeal judgment ?!?!?
And hopefully last but not least MY judicial review will be allowed to proceed against the offensive insanity of a police recording policy that sees my dog on a police data base for 6 years as evidence of my 'hate'.

Polite notice. When writing a letter of complaint here are some tips.

1. Make it concise and don’t ramble.
2. Don’t misrepresent the law
3. Don’t misrepresent the facts

Self ID is NOT the law in this country and sex remains a protected characteristic.
The author was at pains to point out how many trans people had been approached and refused participation.

Hello Sue. I am a co-author of this report. Please could you expand a little more on what is ‘utterly abhorrent’ about this foreword? In either it’s content or the fact it’s attached to the report? Image
O dear. I appear to be blocked. Were I not blocked I would like to have a conversation about what exactly in the substance of this report which I co- authored did Ms Pascoe find so ‘abhorrent’. ImageImage
Then go on to discuss the utility and purpose of describing arguments who don’t agree with as ‘utterly abhorrent’ rather than either engaging with their substance or respecting that person’s right to make the argument.

My reply to the Vice Chancellor of Portsmouth University. I won’t publish his email to me as I don’t have permission to do so. But I think you will get the flavour from my response.

It did not begin well. Image
It proceeded in a similar vein. Image
Kindness was expected. ImageImage

Here is what I now understand about what happened on Saturday at #FiLiA2021. There was a protest organised by @PlaceSteph which was supported by @amnesty. There was a separate protest organised by Cllr Claire Udy. A separate protest organised by staff/students at Portsmouth Uni.
I am told the police confirmed the arrival of another group at some time in the afternoon. And these were responsible for the offensive/threatening signs and chalking. @PlaceSteph assures me that her group did not know and did not encourage this final group.
I am willing to take her word for this. I have made formal inquiry of Portsmouth University to ascertain the extent to which members of their staff were involved. I have made formal complaint to Cllr Claire Udy having seen Facebook posts where she apparently celebrates the images

But don’t we first have to define ‘violence’? If you mean no women were knocked to the ground by angry men, then yes, happily we were spared this. But then we come to the issue of the signs and the chalked drawings.
That many women who were survivors of male sexual violence, would have found deeply distressing and intimidating and as bad as a punch in the face. I hope you can find out who was responsible and that they are not welcome at any future protests.
Because any movement which relies on threats and intimidation to another group, going about their lawful business, is not on the ‘right side of history’. Particularly THESE threats to THIS group.

Interesting. My attempt to email Ms Uddy from a gmail account was blocked. But seems to have gone through on another account.
I do not accept that it is appropriate for someone using a ‘gov.uk’ email address to be apparently celebrating male sexual violence against women and if I get no reassurance I will take this further.
Particularly when I see this.
