Today we focus on UK women’s prisons. We want @DominicRaab @kitmalthouse & @MoJGovUk to make sure women are safe in prison.
You’d expect that women in prison are not housed with male prisoners wouldn’t you?
Wrong!
🧵
#AllIWantForChristmas #SaveOurSpaces #KeepPrisonsSingleSex
Prisoners with penises are in women’s prisons.
Male prisoners with a GRC are placed in women’s prisons. Regardless of the type of conviction, offending history & anatomy. That includes violence & sex offences.

#AllIWantForChristmas #SaveOurSpaces #KeepPrisonsSingleSex
Even without a GRC, a man who says he is a woman can apply to be placed in a women’s prison. He has a right to be housed safely.
But so do women. Women in prison are vulnerable. Women in prison matter.

During White’s trial the prosecutor said White used “a transgender persona to put herself in contact with vulnerable persons she can then abuse”. Reference was also made to White’s erect penis “sticking out of the top of her pants”

What we have learnt from Emma Barnett's interview with Nancy Kelley is that she contradicts her own views and beliefs constantly and her thinking is completely inconsistent.

This is what Nancy had to say:
On impartiality:

Nancy: the BBC needs to be impartial on all issues. Particularly news. But being part of Workplace policy doesn't have a real affect on impartiality.

Also Nancy: We would love to have more influence on how the BBC covers LGBTQ
More on impartiality:

Nancy: We support people on inclusion and in a completely separate team we engage with officials and politicians.

Also Nancy: we want progressive change. That is what we do
