Dropped car at garage and walked back past the polling station to the grinning @TheGreenParty candidate @PeterGilbertUK outside. It began.

Me: What do you think of Alison Teal? She was kicked out of your party for reading an article I wrote.

Him: <trying to maintain inane… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Him: Look I campaigned with her on the tree issue. I looked up to her. She inspired me. She was a hero.
Me: She IS a hero.
Him: well there are other things.
Me: what things?
Him: well I think …er… on some things she’s on the wrong side.

What struck me most about KJK’s face as she was shuffled out of that baying mob was not just the fear, but her sudden knowledge of what male violence is up close. Many of us come to the feminist cause because we have experienced male violence. So when KJK talks of her fear of falling to the floor and what would happen, it’s because many of us have been on that floor and we know what happens.

For those of you blocked here is the thread on Sophie Labelle. From a trans identified Twitter user who finishes with “Sophie Labelle cannot be trusted around children”. Is anyone in there @SheffLibraries ?

Nicola Sturgeon grilled hard about #AdamGraham by Douglas Ross in #FMQ just now. He pushed her “the prisoner is in a women’s prison right now!” But she prevaricated around “segregation”.
