🚨 Last night JK Rowling attacked The National as an "anti-woman newspaper". I think that is absolutely ridiculous chat. Here's my open letter setting out why this kind of attack does not work on our team. www.thenational.scot/news/2525321...

Great article on where Scotland is with abortion law www.thenational.scot/news/2525319...

Anti abortion men over on Twitter…

🚨 MPs have voted to decriminalise abortion in England and Wales. We spoke to our senior investigative reporter @sianushka.bsky.social to find out what's next. Listen to the latest episode of In Solidarity here or wherever you get your podcasts ⤵️ www.opendemocracy.net/en/podcasts/...

Couldn’t have said it any better. Anti trans bigots are now repaying their friends on the Christian right by spreading their anti-abortion rhetoric and disinformation. This is what Twitter does to your brain 🍳🍳🍳🪱🪱🪱🧠

American Extremist Right-Wing "Christian" money is flowing into Scotland right now with the intent of ruining and subverting Scottish culture. Which sounds crazy, but here we are.

“It would be a grave mistake to assume that such extremism cannot reach our shores. It already has. Attempts to undermine our laws and the will of our parliament are not theoretical – they are happening right now.”

My article in The National. The murders and attempted murders it pro choice politicians in America show we need to take the effects these imported culture wars seriously in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 www.thenational.scot/politics/252...

Scratch a terf, find a racist misogynist.

The anti abortion lobby are particularly unhinged at the moment. Term limits to abortion have not changed in the U.K. What has changed is patient will be criminalised for still borns and miscarriages. Thank goodness after this 👇🏻 observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

'It feels different in here': Walz returns to the Capitol after death of friend and colleague

This is excellent news! 👏👏👏 But so much for these hypocrites ‘protecting’ women.👇 Remind them of this the next time they target trans women.

How very strange 🧐 a huge surprise to us all

Isn’t this discombobulating and confusing and not at all predictable? Almost as if she and her ilk need to keep their overlords of the religious right happy.

Never forget the evil that the church have done to women and children news.sky.com/story/openin...

A lot of Tories and Reform voting against decriminalisation. Too many Labour joining them. Shameful.

Of course she did. A lot of the high profile anti trans bigots are showing their true colours this evening. Women should never be jailed for having abortions. You’d think anyone interested in “women’s rights” would agree 🧐

Wonderful news! The fight back begins! Abortion is not a crime and we are human beings not incubators 🥳 www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

There’s still time to send a quick email to your MP. (Mine has also said they are voting in favour of the amendment.)

💥💥Abortion decriminalisation will be voted on at 7pm tonight ‼️

Russia murdered 14 people in Kyiv overnight

This is one of my favourite places, being awesome for Pride month. Great vegan options in the cafe!

Update, a homophobe on TikTok has decided to pray for me. I said that’s fine, I’ll cast spells for him in return 🌿🕯️ The audacity of these men though 🤪

Keep going ❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Honestly terrifying. This is why my generation has never seen an iron lung or lost friends to Measles.

A fascinating read.

The terrorist who killed a Minesota law maker and her husband. He was planning to kill up to 70 people who are vocal on abortion rights. They are all somewhere on the spectrum of violent misogynists. Transphobia is always the first red flag.

My friends aren’t the only one who have had a bad experience with these homophobic apartment owners in Blackpool

Has JD Vance condemned the murder if two of his political opponents? No. But he has found time to say how much he enjoyed the fireworks at the Trump festival.

Two many creeps confidently stalking and harassing people on that vile platform

Also worth noting, not only has Trump removed protections from abortion providers in 🇺🇸, JD Vance has attempted to interfere with buffer zones here in Scotland
