Fabulous. Thank you, Julie. I am 100% behind you, JK and those who stand up so defiantly to support women. We do live in an age of deceit. It's maddening. Just trying to stay grounded and centered seems to be an act of defiance.

I think "hate crime" is a dubious concept to begin with. As though all other violent acts are just chock fulla love. Straight, and beaten up by your abusive husband? Yawn. Trans, and "literally" beaten up by a stranger on Twitter? OMG, we must prosecute to the fullest extent of the law! Trans people MUST be protected!!

Brilliant tribute to JK, JB, and a great punchline for Rosie too :), even if I had thought she was funny until I read this tragically unfunny comment of hers about the UK's top Terfs. Traitors to womankind really do come in some surprising forms these days, including my previously feminist daughter. I'll never understand it. But here's to all the Terf sheroes standing tall, even when they are sitting and laughing in such a patently 'disgusting' and 'hateful' way.

Huge congrats to you, JK et al for defiance capital D. This Kiwi with Scots forebears can scarcely believe it. Has Billy (fuck off) Connolly made any remarks, I'm aware he's an ex-pat these days? The whole 'shebang' will be utterly unworkable & I imagine the Premier will go the way of Sturgeon in fairly short order.

Transactivism is and always has been about rolling back women's rights and returning to the age when women had no right to say no to any male demand. Esp if it involved the Sacred Holy Boner. Funny how few 'hate crime' laws against women there are.

Thank you, JK Rowling - how you managed to make every woman and girl in this fight feel supported, is nothing short of magic!

The LWS event was a success and as far as we're aware, no arrests! The gallant women of Scotland were able to speak freely, and shame the Hate Crime Bill with an iconic display of sisterhood! Thank you, we are stronger together! xx

I am a fan of Rwling, Stock etc al, but the constant attempt to say this is a problem caused by men makes me uncomfortable. In my experience most men support you, but stay silent for fear of losing their livelihoods. Your opponents are trans women and a tiny minority of virtue-signalling "progressives".

Read this substack article and you will see that the ideology has strong support in many women-dominated areas. Go figure!
