🚨A public announcement for the hard of thinking.🚨
For absolute clarity-I do not think trans people are paedophiles per se.
I believe self ID creates a significant deficit in safeguarding that abusive men can & will exploit.
This should not be viewed as controversial.🤷♀️

After a 2week self imposed ban on X & an amazing tour of the Wild Atlantic Way, I return to X to see Swinney is still a massive hypocrite, butt plugs & cat tails are the talk of the steamie & acceptable attire in the coliseum of clowns known as Holyrood.🫣

In my case many of Sturgeon’s foot soldiers joined in defaming me after the former dodgy Rainbow Green co-chair attacked me in the local press with his deceitful interview.
We’re in dangerous territory when fantasists are embraced by those signalling their virtue.

Thinking about so many of the ordinary women whose lives were dragged through the press merely because they wanted single sex spaces. Very few seemed to care about their mental health.

Swinney is the last person I want convening a roundtable focused on tackling VAWG. He has a history of supporting the removal of our rights & breaking the law by ignoring the SC ruling for over a year.
It’s a bit like putting Harold Shipman in charge of elderly care.😬

Today I convened a roundtable focused on tackling violence against women and girls.
As First Minister, I will give this issue my strongest personal leadership.
This is not a women’s issue to solve alone. We must change the culture, challenge abuse, and that starts with men.

dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-… A woman in the Queen's Park hotel told me she was afraid to go to the (shared, no lock) bathroom because men were queuing in the hallway to have sex with female residents. A homeless worker told me she cried when she dropped a woman off to stay there.

Tomorrow councillors in Glasgow will discuss a petition from @formerdecentIS asking for an increase in women-only homeless provision given the assaults and abuse faced by vulnerable women and young children housed in mixed accommodation. Wonder if that issue came up?

I’m heading to Ireland soon on a 2 week tour of the Wild Atlantic Way.
I have a number of destinations planned but if anyone has any recommendations they’d be gratefully received.
TIA.

“While cutting ties with her ex-husband is understandable, it is less easy to fathom why Sturgeon seems intent at taking a swipe at John Swinney and her former colleagues in the SNP.”
It’s not hard to fathom-Sturgeon has a long history of throwing her “friends” under a bus.

Bridges are now being burned because Sturgeon cannot utter a simple sorry

I find it interesting that Sturgeon has chosen to slag off JKR & Joanna Cherry.
One a globally successful author, the other a successful KC. Nicola a failed solicitor & wanna be author revealing exactly who she is.
Jealousy much?
Stay classy Nicola.🫣

While frontline services are being radically cut & those requiring support to continue to live at home safely are losing it, @scotgov are prioritising an org that facilitates infant abuse & a helpline that has little or no callers.😳
Make it make sense.
Make it make sense.
LGBT Health and Wellbeing (whose services include a “Queer Milk” breastfeeding group) was given nearly £230k from government & councils to run a “conversion therapy” helpline. The helpline took just 4 calls in 3 months.

A total disgrace. I know many cases where diversion from custody was possible because of this service. Many lives saved in fact. Yet another Criminal Justice facility closed needlessly. Remember the 219 service closed for funding reasons and Scot Gov would not intervene.
A residential drug service in Glasgow is to close after a long-running financial dispute with its council-owned landlord. Why are 16 rehab beds & essential services to prevent drug related deaths being removed? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Elderly care across the UK is poor, really poor.
If we don’t protect our most vulnerable we cannot claim to be a progressive society no matter how often our governments say we are.
Yet another failure in safeguarding.😳

The Nicolites aren’t happy with Kevin’s column. Not one of them has challenged the content preferring to attack the messenger.🙄
I wish they’d rip the bandage off so we can all move on & start to address the damage she caused with her back of a fag packet policies.😏

She praises the Scottish Greens, a party embodying all she laments: bullying, deep-rooted misogyny and the hounding of women. And who harbour disturbing views that verge on Jew-baiting: my column on Nicola Sturgeon’s updated memoir… in @heraldscotland heraldscotland.com/politics/viewp…

Well done Maggie.
@Edinburgh_CC we are watching. Your job is to protect children not finance orgs that use infants as props to validate deviant behaviour.

Male “breastfeeding” group in Edinburgh - Amanda Hatton head of children’s services has responded to child protection concern.
“I have ensured the relevant professionals are taking this forward.”
We need to know that a joint social work and police investigation is taking place and that the men and children concerned have been identified.

And thank-you @Dr11Ums for providing me with an incredible legal team to take this landmark challenge against the Standards Commission to a court of law were arguments and evidence were properly presented & tested - as they should be.
A long day in court. Well done to everyone on our team and of course Fiona for her commitment to justice. She serves her electorate well.
