I'm really suprised! I hope it's in the print edition too.

Transgender law reform has overlooked women’s rights, say MPs

Blimey!

I see Stephen Whittle didn’t waste any time playing the suicide card. I find it interesting how often this is peddled. Three women a week in violent relationships commit suicide and many of the would not use a refuge that has male bodied service users, so would be adversely affected by a firther relaxation of the GRA. There are vulnerable people on both sides of this debate whose needs must be considered and rights balanced.

I didn’t read that as black mail, Giles. It almost reads as something much worse. At this point Stephen Whittle surely cannot be unaware of the Samaritans Guidelines and social contagion. It reads like a fucking hint.

Appalling once again to use the threat of suicide as a debating tactic.

I hope people see the emotional and abusive black mail of the "flurry of suicides" comment.
