As a staunch unionist I would never vote SNP but on this one issue I must say Nicola has impressed me. I will raise a glass in her honour when reform of the GRA is passed!

If trans rights do not conflict with women’s rights, as these MSPs claim to believe, then they should have no issue with joining the women’s demo.

They won’t, of course.

Johann Lamont is speaking.

Now that’s a woman who cares about women & doesn’t hold back Compassionate & strong woman, she is excellent advocate for women.

She is interesting. I think she is fence sitting but she is bright and ambitious. And she MUST understand the issues about single sex spaces given her physical needs. I don’t know her circumstances or what sort of assistance she needs personally but she has done a lot of work for peope with disabilities so she must have a insight from that.

You would like so, but doing that video proves to me she hasn’t concerned the right of any woman, disabled or otherwise, to safety, privacy and dignity.
She didn’t have to do the video, she choose to do it.

I saw Pam Duncan Glancy did a video to encourage people to support the “ Trans Rights” demo on Monday in Edinburgh.
Wonder if Pam will bother to do the same for the women’s rally...
As she is on the committee at the GRC hearings this video has clearly demonstrated her bias, and I find that concerning to say the least.

Doesn't matter if your MSP ignores you (and you have 8 MSPs remember, not just 1), we need to make sure they can never say they don't hear from constituents about this topic. Always ask, and ask them specific questions so you have a reason to expect a response.
There is always the Code of Conduct they need to comply with. While they don't have to take on your case, they should be telling you why. Write back and mention this :www.parliament.scot/msps/code-of-conduct/section-8-engaging-with-constituents#topOfNav

PogueMahoneBoris · 03/09/2022 13:51

Absolutely, because they should all be in Holyrood that day, ask them to come out and talk to you, before, during or afterwards.

tricervixtops · 03/09/2022 09:11

@GibbonsGoatsGibbons why not write to your MSP and ask them to go along?

Haha He's an SNP automaton but I like the idea of asking them all to go, thanks

Thanks Pogue I do & will write they just don't acknowledge anymore!

YES! Absolutely.
For a start you can't let them claim they never hear of this from constituents.
Then, there will be a vote of all MSPs at the end of the stage 1 of the GRR Bill, in early Sept, so they need regular reminders women are watching. And you vote.
Ask them to come out on 15th and speak with you, or other constituents.
Ask them if their party is going to vote whip votes for the GRR Bill.
And contact all 8 MSPs,.not just the ones you like, they all get to vote.
Thanks!
