Good reminder from @Neilsocialist that Tony Benn would have been 100 years old today if he had still been alive. This was me interviewing him back in 2006 in his Notting Hill home and when I clearly must have dyed my hair brown!! #notanaturalblonde

“To this day, I do not understand how the accusation that I was ‘transphobic’ was valid, as it seemed to be based on an assertion that I think differently on a public policy to some others…” @ann4rector in #WomenWhoWouldntWheesht by @DalgetySusan @LucyHunterB #WomenWontWheesht

People need to start to understand that one main reason this debate got so toxic is that it involves a political ideology that licenses abusive behaviour towards women and claims it is justice. And if you license abusive behaviour then abusive people will use it to be abusive.

This man was feted within the SNP while those of us who complained about his violent threats against women were demonised. For years the leadership have turned a blind eye to men abusing non-compliant women. This culture must change. search.app/C4pJkchBFrAQtUdH8
