‘Tonight: @TraceyMartinMP has just announced she's deferring a bill that would make it easier to change gender on birth certificates.. "there has been inadequate public consultation" and bill would benefit from legal clarification around complex cases. She's on Q+A tonight 9:25’’

Well done NZ women.

Don't let your guard down. Will need to keep pushing during the consultation. UK gov hoped to just skip the consultation out without anyone but special interest groups noticing. It was very user unfriendly to fill in. I would have made a hash of it without guidance from FairPlayForWomen and it took me about 4 hours over two weekends reading each section and FPFW viewpoint and putting it in my own words.

The gov is busy with Brexit so self ID may have been shelved for now but they are pushing on with the brain washing.

This is just the first round for you.

Yes Yes Yes I hope Corin Dann has done his homework.
So delighted. Will definitely be recording this tonight.

Sanity at last. Thank you especially Speak Up For Women.
I'm looking forward to tonight's programme.
I hope shes not just placating us. Refusing to attend SUFWs event was not a good look at all and I think she realised that.
Oh happy days!

Oh my goodness, all that hard work from Speak Up for Women, ordinary kiwis emailing their MPs, and writing letters to the PM and leaders of the coalition parties .. Tracey Martin has absolutely done the right thing. I wonder if the excellent article on trans ideology and NZ law by Annabel Markham was a factor in her decision regarding ''legal clarification' (article on the SUFW website).

Will definitely be recording Q & A tonight! Thanks for posting this.

I am so unbelievably shocked and happy. I may even shed a few tears.
