My local msp, I know her personally & supported her over the years, has voted for sexual predators to self-id & boy will she know about it when I next see her! To say I am RAGING is an understatement 😤

I've put this on the FB page of Mhairi Black, a woman I once had so much respect for, but whom I now loathe, for she has fought hard to remove ALL the rights and single sex spaces of women and girls in Scotland. ALL who have done this must be held accountable when the crimes against women and girls start to happen. And to think Sturgeon and Black have both declared they stand for an end to VAWG when they've just unleashed one of the biggest VAWG crimes of my lifetime, in my view. SEETHINGLY ANGRY!

Thank you JL for keeping this list updated JL and for sharing it Glinner. There should be NO men on this list who are able to use womanface to abuse women adn children, yet here we are. Not only did they pass this horrendous piece of legislation, but they voted down the amendment to bar sexual predators from self IDing. Why? What the hell was going through their heads? Sexual predators now have a right to access victims? FFS.

Poor Scotland. Once known for its Age of Enlightenment, it's so-called 'progressive' government has truly sunk into the deepest depths of darkness. The Dark Age of Gender. Complete giving over of a reasoned view of the world.

Each county in the States should start a list. Womenarehuman.com and Reduxx have a good start.

A Labour councillor spoke at todays rally against this bill and as part of her speech she read out the names we are familiar with. Thank you Alison.

JL's list is such an indictment. Should be played hourly on every bloody network, across every bloody platform, in every news feed available. It would completely end this 'gender' nonsense, and the pathological 'kindness' so many people are willing to give to it.

‘The diamond grass of Cathkin Park is glinting in the winter sun as Ellie Gomersall reflects on something intensely personal - her identity.’

This is the bbc’s answer to balance… not the women who have been assaulted by men pretending to be women, no just a male student talking about himself. Deeply personal my arse.

voting on thursday. As a life long labour supporter looks like i owe another debt of gratitude to the tories in this. Shows how important it is not to be a nation of nodding dogs.

Horrific. Simply horrific. But, Dana Rivers, the trans-identifying male who was just convicted of brutally murdering a lesbian couple and their teenage son in Oakland, CA, is not on the list. Nor was Darren Merager, the Los Angeles Wi Spa flasher suspect who had "female" listed on his driver's license, must have at least suggested he was female upon entering Wi Spa, but, during a recent interview, said that he knew that he was a man.

Before the Wi Spa incident, Merager had already been convicted of exposing his male genitalia in other inappropriate venues.

Perhaps Rivers is not on the list because his 1st degree murder convictions were so recent? And, perhaps Merager is not on the list because both his previous convictions were associated with penile exposure/ public indecency AND his current Wi Spa charges are not nearly so heinous as the crimes of some of the other men on this list?

so in scotland with the bill passing we can look forwards to a massive state led grooming program aimed at educating 14-15 year olds about whether they want to change their sex in preparation for their 16th birthday. I think i might have to go and live in a cave.

On topic - I came across this article this morning, I now more or less ignore The Guardian but up until the last few sentences this is actually fairly neutrally written (well, no, it still centres how trans community feels over that other lot... what they called... you know those people with eggs and ovaries etc...)

BUT... For the GUARDIAN... perhaps an improvement, and a sign that women's rights groups might be having an impact big enough that media can no longer dismiss them as some sort of fringe movement.

Hopefully, Alister Jack is on the side of sanity today. He can issue an s.35 to prevent the PO from submitting the bill for Royal assent!
