The Trans lobby used women's prisons as a test bed for how self ID could work in practice. Cynically using the most vulnerable of women to set precedent & further push for gender self ID in the belief that the public wouldn't much care, was, in my opinion, utterly reprehensible.

We have written to the National Librarian about her decision to remove The Women Who Wouldn't Wheesht from the centenary exhibition for the National Library of Scotland, Dear Library, in response to complaints from its LGBT staff network. 1/2

This is the book about the Sturgeon era that the National Library of Scotland doesn't want you to find in its centenary exhibition and the Edinburgh International Book Festival doesn't want you to hear discussed. Some shops don't want you to find it. 1/2

1/ The Peggie tribunal is an important moment in isolating the bourgeoise character of gender madness. This came from the ivory towers of Berkeley via well fed otherwise unemployable DEI drones and cheered on by the equally unemployable gendocrats of Stonewall.

It’s never about protecting the women who claim to be men. It’s only ever about protecting the men who claim to be women.

Stonewall, LGBTQ+ lobby group and child-harm advocates, is on the brink of collapse. If you want to know why read this 🧵about Ruth Hunt the dodgy cretin of a CEO who ran it into the ground while it awarded lucrative contracts to her girlfriend. All above board ….of course.👇

I want every single person who deigns to speak on this to read this book. Please, read it, analyse & understand it. I did. Before I said a word on this. Because I was told to listen. And I did. This was the plan, all along. To render 'woman' as a material category obsolete.
