An irresistible force meeting an immovable object
A last-minute meeting with the Scottish Government to express our concerns about proposed GRA reform was a pointless exercise.
A profound betrayal of women
Originally posted on Brighton_Jock:
There is a depressing and concerning article in today’s Guardian. Reading it this morning plunged me into a sense of genuine despair and fuelled an acute anxiety that I cannot shake. The story reveals the existence of a database on to which ordinary men – husbands, boyfriends, fathers, sons –…
I’m a woman who won’t wheesht
My message to the Scottish Government is that we are no longer accepting your failure to engage with our VALID concerns. We will not succumb to the bullying of your fly lords. We will be heard!

Erasing word ‘mother’ is morally wrong
It is a privilege to be a mother, and celebrating that does not diminish anyone else’s experience. The Scottish Government has no right to belittle one of humanity’s most important roles.

We believe the key to building public support for opposition to GRA reform in its current form is by taking the arguments off social media and out into real life. Our stall in Ayr proved us right.

See our voices
In powerful verse, how women are using their voices in ever more inventive ways to tackle the oldest struggle of all – to win and retain our rights
Women’s feelings matter, too
I was at the demonstration outside the Scottish Parliament because I am deeply worried about the erosion of women’s rights. It really is that simple.

Hello ladies,
I’m in Newcastle, south of the border obviously, but I would love to leave some of your flyers about for our local lassies to see what’s going on in Scotland and what it will mean for us all. Is there any way I could get some flyers to distribute? I’m happy to contribute to the costs.
Jessica
