My life evolved around party campaigns, events, fundraising, etc. Like many others, I believed the SNP could & would be better. I was wrong & yes they let many of us down so don’t dare tell me to wheesht for Indy cause the whole time the govt insults women we will not secure Indy

Most folk want intelligent based, fair policies that address many of society’s ills. We want open & honest debate & need to trust our govt to make the difficult decisions, not abrogate their responsibilities to lobby groups.

What have we got?
We have elected officials sneering at us, dismissing our concerns as ‘not valid’, calling the electorate ‘trash, neds & bigots’. We have senior party members smearing women who object with the intent to destroy them.

We have a government who views #hatefulhaberdashery as threatening & legitimate protest scorned.
We have a FM happy to deliver emergency broom cupboard broadcasts misleading the nation to avert our attention from her failings, while refusing to engage across civic society.

We have government funded women’s services, top heavy with ‘professional’ feminists all too willing to sell out the needs of the very women they’re supposed to represent & ignoring women’s objections while eroding best practice.

We have grassroots women’s groups funded by ordinary people challenging the govts unlawful actions, erosion of women’s rights, language & very existence.
Yet again many women are left to do the heavy lifting.

We have a corrupt, anti-science ideology being embedded in our schools, masquerading as ‘progressive’ when it’s actually deeply regressive, misogynistic & homophobic. An ideology designed to dismantle our boundaries & discard safeguarding.

Our services & institutions have been captured. Our police force are prioritising violent sexual offenders wishes over women’s needs. These criminals are then placed in prison with vulnerable women who are further terrorised by their presence & behaviours.

We have a male running women’s services telling us ‘women must reframe their trauma’. They insult the many women who built these services by stating they will cleanse women’s history of their bigotry & those services who do not capitulate are being defunded.

3 recent polls confirm Scots overwhelmingly oppose self ID. Where is the promised publication of the last consultation on GRA Reform? And I mean all the responses, not just the cherry picked ones that agree with govt proposals.

Many of us have lost trust & confidence in the Govt as a result of their underhanded & pigheaded actions.
Labelling us ‘the enemy’ because we see the injustice & dangers of govt proposals of self ID sums up the totalitarianism rife at leadership level.

On the eve of a new year-my message to the govt is we are no longer accepting your failure to engage with our VALID concerns. We will not succumb to the bullying of your Fly Lords. We will be heard!
