This looks like it has been a brilliant meeting, some great speakers.
Hope there will be a write up tomorrow but if anyone wants to read the live tweets from tonight the hashtags are #fwsedin and #edinfws

I've been trying to follow it on twitter, but the information I've gathered is piecemeal. Will transcripts or videos be available to view so that i can see what each speaker said?

New Campaign:
Gender Recognition Act
For years now, lesbian, bisexual and gay rights have been progressively undermined by deliberate attempts to confuse biological sex with the notion of ‘gender identity’. This has now come to a head with the Scottish government’s proposed reform of the Gender Recognition Act (announced at the end of 2019). We believe this misguided experiment is a mortal threat to our rights in Scotland. Undermine the reality of biological sex and you undermine the meaning of same-sex attraction.

I usually have an evening class tonight so thought I couldn't go so put it out of my mind. Class cancelled but I'd forgotten about it. Damn.
