Yes, I have to admit I'm worried about the cat. You shouldn't put them outside at night! A litter tray is by far the best solution, if the cat will use it.

That aside, good piece.

I'm not seeing what her objection to getting the poor cat a litter tray is.

Other than that, good piece.

Great article. Absolutely needed to be said.

Litter trays are also great unless your cat is like ours and absolutely refuses to use one under any circumstances!

hooded litter tray

Very well said, but as regards her cat (end of column), a litter tray where the cat ‘dumps’ would solve the problem. Litter trays really are not that much hassle, you can even get covered ones.

My allies should be the Labour Party, stonewall, etc. Instead they are Times and Spectator journalists. ConfusedSadAngry

She's right. In that if it happened to a woman, or someone in the Tory party, it would be a no-brainer.

Being trans is a golden ticket.

The NSPCC recommends segregating the sexes after age 10. Unless someone is trans.

The girl guides forbids sons of volunteers to share accommodation with girls, unless they're trans.

Deputy leadership candidates would be publicly vilified for blocking 50,000 members of the public/their party, unless they're trans.

Twitter being a wash with screenshots of memberships to fetish sites would have anyone else instantly fired, unless they're trans.

Labour Party women's officers making a joke of rape and claiming to be Jimmy Savile's apprentice, would be forever ostracised, unless they're trans.

Time after time it's evident.

Good on her!

So glad she took it to Stonewall.

Love Janice.

Well said Janice.
