🧵Westminster Political Party Leaders and Sex vs Gender:

As we begin, very slowly, to gear up towards the next General Election, I decided to take a look at where the leaders of our elected political parties in Westminster stand on the ongoing debate around sex vs gender:
(1/12)
Keir Starmer (Labour):

Keir believes that ‘1 in 1,000’ women have a penis.

He proposes banning ‘conversion therapy’, which could criminalise therapists and parents who don’t affirm medical transition.

He supports legislation, which could criminalise misgendering someone.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Ed Davey (Liberal Democrats):

Ed believes that women can “quite clearly” have a penis.

He supported Scotland’s attempt to introduce ‘self-ID’ for 16 years old.

He has also accused the government of “assaulting” trans people.
(3/12)
Carla Denyer/Adrian Ramsay (Green):

Carla “strongly refutes” there is conflict between ‘trans’ rights and women’s rights.

She accused the Equality and Human Rights Commission of “bias”.

Adrian has accused those who raise concerns regarding gender ideology of “bigotry”.
(4/12)
Humza Yousaf (SNP):

Humza championed the proposed legislation to introduce ‘self-ID’ in Scotland and accused the UK government of a “power grab” in blocking it.

He was unable to answer whether the rapist, Isla Bryson, was a man or women.
(5/12)
Rhun ap Iorwerth (Plaid Cymru):

Rhun has pledged to classify ‘gender identity’ as completely separate to mental health.

He pledged to establish a Welsh ‘gender identity clinic’.

He has also blamed “Brexit” and “far right politics” for impacting ‘trans equality’.
(6/12)
Naomi Long (Alliance):

Naomi believes that “transwomen are women”.

She has previously refused to answer the question: “what is a woman?”.

She has also spoken out to support drag acts performing in front of young children.
(7/12)
Mary Lou McDonald (Sinn Féin):

Mary Lou said she’s on a “learning curve” after her brother ‘transitioned’.

She has called for the Gender Recognition Act to extend to “children and non-binary identities”.

She has also called for schools to teach about “all gender identities”.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Jeffrey Donaldson (DUP):

Jeffrey issued an “apology” on behalf of the party to the “LGBTQIA” community.

He became the first leader of the DUP to meet with the Rainbow Project, who support children to seek medical transition, as well as breast binding/genital tucking.
(9/12)
Rishi Sunak (Conservative):

Rishi has said that “100% of women do not have a penis”.

He used Section 35 to block Scotland’s attempt to introduce ‘self-ID’.

He has pledged to protect single-sex spaces for women under law.

He has told schools not to transition pupils.
(10/12)
Notice a difference?

Only one political party currently elected to Westminster stands up for biological reality, child wellbeing and women’s rights.

We need to send a message to those seeking election that they will not get our vote if they push gender ideology.
(11/12)
To note - I could not find anything relevant from Colum Eastwood (SDLP) or Joe Fortune (Co-Operative).
(12/12)

🧵Thread: Celebrating CEO of Stonewall, Nancy Kelley:

Given today’s sad news that Nancy Kelley is leaving Stonewall at the end of this month, I thought it would be a nice send off for her to compile the greatest achievements she presided over during the past 3 years:
(1/13)
We witnessed the disintegration of Stonewall’s ‘Diversity Champions Programme’, with swathes of organisations leaving the scheme altogether.

One government minister even stated that he was “delighted” when his department announced that it was cutting ties with Stonewall.
(2/13)



Nancy came under significant fire for attempting to draw an abhorrent comparison between those with gender critical beliefs (which are protected under the Equality Act 2010) and “anti-semitism”.

🧵Thread - Ideological Capture of University of the Arts London (@UAL):

We are witnessing gender ideology sweep across higher education. One such example is UAL.

Having been contacted by concerned staff and students, here are some of their most concerning materials:
(1/10)
In February, this was sent as part of communications to all staff and students.

It details a photography student’s project on ‘queer tattoo artists’. It shows off double mastectomy scars.

This can be properly described as the glorification of bodily mutilation. (2/10)
UAL have been complicit in diluting what it means to be female.

Here is an invitation for students to attend a ‘Body Acceptance Workshop’.

Note how it is open to “anyone who identifies as a woman”.

🧵Thread: Westminster Debate on ‘Sex’ - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

This crucial debate showcased many MPs standing up for biological reality.

However, worrying numbers sought to mislead and throw abuse.

Here are the most concerning statements made during the debate:
(1/18)
Dame Angela Eagle (Labour):

Angela called Miriam Cates “deliberatively provocative” for raising concerns about threats to women and sexualisation of children.

Just a few moments later she suggested those concerned with gender ideology are “bigots”.

Pure hypocrisy.
(2/18)
Angela went on the claim that clarifying the Equality Act 2010 would bring about “mandatory exclusion from public spaces” for trans people.

It would do no such thing. ‘Gender reassignment’ is a protected characteristic and there are no calls for this to be changed.

For daring to say that children should not be prescribed irreversible and harmful puberty blockers, I was expelled from my Masters’ degree.

As of yesterday, it is official NHS England policy.

Yet, I remain expelled.

Cancel culture is real. It must be stopped.

Breaking:

The NHS have banned puberty blockers for children outside of clinical research.

This day will go down in history as the day that safeguarding of children came back into existence.
Full document here:

We need to make sure that private clinics, such as the disgraced GenderGP, are held to account if they attempt to deviate from this official NHS guidance.

🧵Thread - The 24 Lies of Emily Bridges

For my sins, I have compiled list of every lie spouted in Bridges’ statement:

1. Nobody has been ‘banned’ from racing. Everyone remains fully entitled to take part in sporting categories corresponding to their biological sex.
(1/11)
2. British Cycling do have the authority in this conversation. They are the governing body.

3. There is zero correlation between the funding of British Cycling and the government’s migration policy.

4. The UK government does not violently clamp down on dissent.
(2/11)
5. The UK government does not starve its people.

6. There is no evidence of British Cycling encouraging eating disorders.

7. British Cycling is not a failed organisation. It has had huge success on an international stage over the years.
