🧵The Scottish Gov’s new transgender pupil guidance (Sep 2025) has been published , but it’s flawed
It still promotes gender ideology
It still defies the law
Ignores evidence
Risks child welfare
Ignores Safeguarding
Here’s why it remains a problem.gov.scot/publications/s… The Guidance does refer to UK Supreme Court (sex = bio sex) but it still lets children and young people self-ID as the opposite "gender" It lets boys use girls’ spaces like changing rooms etc. This violates the Equality Act & girls’ rights to dignity privacy & safety.

A 🧵
In light of recent negative coverage of Scotland’s public sector DEI policies, one would think it might be rethinking its stance. Far from it - and @NHSHighland is not the only one doubling down; Cairngorms National Park Authority @cairngormsnews appears to be vying with them for the prize for the most unlawful policies.

CNPA’s Board meets tomorrow to ‘note’ its Public Sector Equality Duty Report shorturl.at/2tv9n, which has some great content, but it links to the organisation’s 16 page ‘Gender Diversity Policy’ shorturl.at/Y5FsT We assume that this policy was created as part of achieving LGBTYS’ ‘LGBT Charter’ Foundation level. Much of it is total nonsense, but some parts are more serious, i.e. misrepresenting the EA2010, allowing self ID, allowing men to use the female toilets and facilities (obviously never heard of the 1992 Workplace Regulations).

It insists that ‘managers are responsible for applying the policy and ensuring that it is followed’ and that ‘HR is responsible for 'promoting the policy's use with training and guidance and ensuring that appropriate action is taken when the policy is not followed'.

🧵We welcome the announcement that @SandyfordNHSGGC will no longer prescribe puberty blockers for new patients.

We have a question about this
bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla… We did a FOI in Nov 2023 of @SandyfordNHSGGC Which is at odds with their statement today asked about prescribing
They "assess and diagnose gender incongruence They are not the main prescribers of gender affirming hormone treatment"
We don't generate prescriptions in our system"

Thread 🧵

We welcome the final report of the Cass Review and are pleased that children and young people in England will be protected to a large extent from the dangers of gender ideology & gender affirming care

A thread🧵
In August 21 our member @MaryHowden before she joined WRN SCOTLAND coordinated a letter signed by 310 people to complain about the CEO Mridul Whadwa The letter was sent to the Chief Executive of Rape Crisis Sandy Brindley & the Trustees of Edinburgh Rape crisis Centre

Mridul Whadwa had said in a podcast
'But I think the other thing is that sexual violence happens to bigoted people as well bigots" .....

"But if you have to reframe your trauma, I think it is important as part of that reframing, having a more positive relationship with it"

🧵Reflection on #ElectHer event @ScotParl yesterday. The principles around supporting women into politics are great We support that 💯% we need more women in parliament. But ElectHer isn't just focusing on women it also includes men who identify as women There were men there yesterday using our words, our toilets, feeding back in groups for us, promoted in videos & using resources that should only be for women

Yesterday we sent a letter to @CareInspect about Guidance on the inclusion of transgender including non-binary young people
careinspectorate.com/images/documen…
Here is what we had to say a🧵 We believe it presents a serious risk to the wellbeing of vulnerable children & young people & have requested its immediate withdrawal.
We identified the following
1. Concerns about LGBT Youth Scotland
2 Lack of Safeguarding
3 Breaches of the Health & Social Care Standards

A 🧵We were asked yesterday by a journalist what WRN Scotland had done to campaign against the #GRR Bill here's our list
💚written letters to MSPs &MPs as constituents

#NoMenInWomensSpaces
Thanks to @moleatthedoor for his help

A 🧵on why #NoToSelfID is still important On 27 October @scotgov voted for the 1st stage of the Gender Recognition Reform Bill #GRR the vote passed 🗳For 88
🗳Against 33
🗳Abstained 4
🗳No vote 4
#NoToSelfID
#NoMeninWomensSpaces Scottish Labour Party @ScottishLabour
voted For the #GRR but they recognise the bill needs ammendments & gave a commitment to "seek to amend the bill at stage 2 to respect the primacy of the Equality Act 2010 and to have that placed on the face of the bill".
#NoToSelfID

A 🧵on why #NoToSelfID is important right now. On 27 October @scotgov will vote to reform the Gender Recognition Act #GRA If the vote goes through this removes the need for a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria & people can self declare the gender they wish to live as /1 @scotgov and @ShonaRobison have told us that no man would declare himself to be something he isn't to access vulnerable women & children. We know this is not true. There are numerous examples where this had happened.
