I keep thinking that there is hope that my government will listen to women’s concerns about gender reform. I sat in the committee room while my Cabinet Secretary did her admin (drawing squares round her notes, and underlining text which was already highlighted) instead of >
attending to the submissions of her colleagues. I cannot bear the contempt that @scotgov is demonstrating towards this act. I could not tolerate the rude display and asked @JoeFitzSNP if he could encourage @ShonaRobison to heed the important points and democratic process>
I am grateful that I was allowed to finish my point in the meeting and that the security staff and the police presence were kind to and patient with me. I do not think I have ever been so angry in my life. My government does not care about women or girls. I knew it, but it is
still rather confronting. The problem @NicolaSturgeon has is that sex is immutable and #womenWontWheesht. I want my words, I want my rights and I want my elected representatives to do their job with less abject contempt for democracy. This behaviour was shameful to observe.
