The Bill outlines that you will state whether you are a 'woman' or 'not a woman' via a 'gender statement'.
The attached impact assessment, along with other documentation, makes it very clear that this will be on a self ID basis.

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

When @Plaid_Cymru’s values lead them to cancel a worldwide feminist group @FiLiA_charity’s stall at conference, what are their ‘values’ actually worth?

Values.
By way of reminder, this is the @Plaid_Cymru STILL embroiled in a misogyny and sexual harassment scandal.
Who don’t want women who defend other women at their conference.
As these women don’t prioritise men’s feelings.

BREAKING NEWS - @WelshGovernment learnt NOTHING from their failed Gender Quotas Bill that attempted to introduce self ID for electoral lists.
Today, they published a new Bill that AGAIN continues their foolish mission to introduce self ID in Wales.

The Senedd Cymru (Electoral Candidates Lists) Bill was published today.
It claims to ensure at least 50% of candidates are 'women'.
It's a deception acted out by a gender ideology obsessed @WelshGovernment.
Shame on you @JaneHutt. Shame on you all.

Stonewall have released their latest company accounts. What have we learnt?
Well they are doing very nicely out of our small country of Wales

The amount @WelshGovernment gave (on our behalf) has reduced - to £100,000.
You may consider this a good investment - or a total waste of money in these cash strapped times. You’re paying, after all.
What do Stonewall provide in return? Well, they seem to ‘advise’ a lot.

BREAKING NEWS – UK SELF ID BY THE BACK DOOR
Welsh Govt will thumb their noses at UK Govt and introduce legislation in the new year to –

🚨Redefine ‘woman’ to include males
🚨Alter the definition of ‘woman’ at any time
🚨Squash any ability to challenge a self ID declaration

1/ They are introducing a ‘#GenderQuotasBill’ in the new year that claims to increase the number of women in the Senedd.

This is a DECEPTION
It’s a means to introduce self ID in law.
In the corridors of power, this is openly acknowledged & it may increase MALE representation

Q. When is a ‘single-sex ward’ not a single-sex ward?

A. When a Welsh health board like @HywelDdaHB are involved and have been 'Stonewalled'

Women of Wales – when you are at your most vulnerable in hospital, you are being gaslit

A 🧵1/9

womensrights.network/_files/ugd/18f… The Hywel Dda Chief Executive was very keen to respond to our letter about the shocking WRN report

To reassure us that the Health Board were all over this

As part of that response, he was keen to emphasise their single-sex ward provision

Part 3
The words of @JaneHutt Minister for Social Partnerships @WelshGovernment

‘I regularly engage with stakeholders across Wales - individuals and organisations - and will continue to listen to their concerns and lived experiences’

You don’t listen to ours

1/6 It’s breathtakingly arrogant how our dear leaders claim to be listening to us

While simultaneously ignoring what we say and refusing to meet or answer our questions

They are unable to countenance any critical of their plan- blindly repeating the mantra

2/6

Part 2
The words of @JaneHutt Minister of Social Justice in @WelshGovernment

‘In respect of trans-inclusion limiting access to women's safe spaces, there is a lack of evidence around the actual experienced impacts of trans inclusion in services’

Hello? Seriously?

1/5 This line is trotted out to the women of Wales in various letters to defend their LGBTQ+ and self ID
Plan

To tell us to go away, nothing to see here, be quiet, we know best

In light of Isla Bryson - do you still stand by your statement @JaneHutt?

2/5

The gender-addled ideologues at @WelshGovernment and their LGBTQ+ action plan

Stating that the plan will ‘LIKELY NOT RESULT IN THE EROSION OF RIGHTS FOR WOMEN & GIRLS’

Likely. Not definitely. Likely

Let that sink in

1/4 These are the words of @JaneHutt the Minister for Social Justice in @WelshGovernment in a letter to two of our members

Imagine any other group being told that their rights will ‘likely’ not be eroded

Would they dare to be so casual and flippant?

2/4

In Wales @WelshGovernment ignore the voices of concerned women & plough on, intent on destroying our sex-based rights

But Welsh women will not be subdued, dismissed or ignored any longer

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

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?

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…

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?
