Wales the most LGBTQ+ friendly nation?

You might as well take the LGB out of that right now on this showing @WelshGovernment

A shocking bin-fire of a meeting

@UKLabour @Keir_Starmer no wonder women can’t trust you

#RespectMySex

A 🧵
It may have helped if the host from @LGBTLabour had actually asked questions from those attending

Did you know questions were rapidly being deleted from the chat bar @hannahblythyn?

Did you know that lesbians were being silenced?
Did you know that any challenges to the deletion of questions were being removed @hannahblythyn?

We’d like the host from @LGBTLabour ‘Ash’ to explain why the questions of lesbian were repeatedly deleted

Surely the L is an important part of the LGBTQ+ Plan? Surely? No?
Do you support the silencing of lesbians @Keir_Starmer @hannahblythyn @PrifWeinidog?

If not, what are you doing about the authoritarian attitude of @LGBTLabour?

You won’t win over the female vote like this
Of course, the magnificent Kate Harris of @ALLIANCELGB spoke up and praised you @hannahblythyn for attending this meeting

& told you that questions from lesbians were being deleted

The host then removed her from the meeting - Shameful!

theguardian.com/society/2022/s…
Are the experiences of brave detransitioners an inconvenient truth for @WelshGovernment?

Where are they in your not-so-friendly LGBTQ+ plan? Nowhere

A woman was removed for posting this question

What’s your answer @hannahblythyn?
A woman posted a question about the pressure on same-sex attracted youth

She was removed from the meeting

Is same-sex attraction now unmentionable to @WelshGovernment and @UKLabour? The love that dare not speak its name - again?

#LesbianVisibility
Here we go again

Another woman removed - for daring to post a question about whether @WelshGovernment had paid attention to the Cass review

Nice mention of Time to Think by @hannahsbee - perhaps we’ll get them all a copy!

Have you read it yet @Keir_Starmer?
And now a question on the likelihood of @WelshGovernment being able to implement their plans

And the utter debacle of GRR in Scotland

Plus failure to consult with women

Woman removed from the meeting without explanation

@wrnwales
@MerchedCymru
@FiLiA_charity
It goes on and on - by now the meeting could have moved into a telephone box

Women are being silenced
Lesbians are being silenced

@WelshGovernment @UKLabour are not listening outside their echo chamber

& @LGBTLabour are an authoritarian disgrace
So do you condemn this conduct @hannahblythyn @PrifWeinidog?

Do you intend to respond to the unanswered questions of these women? We’re waiting @WelshGovernment

Do you condemn the behaviour of the host @LGBTLabour?

Or is this just a TQ+ plan and LGB are not welcome?
You are silencing women @UKLabour

You are repeating the mistakes of Scottish Govt

This is why women have no confidence @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour

You don’t #RespectMySex

Given that @UKLabour are now apparently ‘very clear’ on women’s rights, we’d like to ask @Keir_Starmer to answer some questions which are of importance to women (& their votes)

Please feel free to add your own.

1. What is a woman Keir?

A 🧵

express.co.uk/news/politics/…
2. Will you, at any time in Govt, seek to introduce gender self ID?

3. What EXACTLY do you mean by ‘reforming’ the GRA?

4. What is your position on TWAW, TMAM, NBIAV now @Keir_Starmer?

thepinknews.com/2021/06/10/kei…
5. Will you now unequivocally defend @RosieDuffield1 from the detractors in YOUR party?

6. Will there now be a place for @LabWomenDec @FiLiA_charity and others at conference?

At what stage does the censoring of opposing public opinion in a mainstream news publication become acceptable?

Is there a policy at @WalesOnline to silence any questioning of gender ideology?

Is this acceptable in a democracy?

Jen @quetiapina1 was arrested on Jan 23 & was to answer her bail on April 11, after it was extended twice

Our groups have been supporting her

We are advised that the decision was made by the CPS after examining the evidence put forward by Gwent Police

@WeAreFairCop

This outcome is no surprise

We feel her arrest was a disproportionate & excessive use of police powers, further exacerbated by her being kept in a cell, her phone seized, and house searched
The comment of a Gwent Inspector should raise concern though ....
