Layla Moran:

‘I believe that women are women, so if that person was a trans woman, I absolutely would. I just do not see the issue. As for whether they have a beard, which was one of the hon. Gentleman’s earlier comments, I dare say that some women have beards. There are all sorts of reasons why our bodies react differently to hormones. There are many forms of the human body. I see someone in their soul and as a person. I do not really care whether they have a male body.’

For a while Layla Moran’s constituency was one of the darker ones too. I wonder if she still sees gendered souls?

What, pray, is a “gendered soul”?

It's so interesting looking at that map. The border towns on the English side are getting darker slowly as well. Not really surprising but it is interesting to see the visual representation of annoyance

Yes arabella, my area is a ‘hotter’ spot but no where near as hot as Scotland. Well done Scotland

I am delighted we have these maps of anger. They are fascinating.

Is it just my eyesight or does Brighton and Hove look darker than most in England? Interesting if so!

It is darker in one Brighton constituency and the surrounds. Russell Moyle’s electorate is moderately darker in comparison to the rest of UK though.

Boiledbeetle · 29/12/2022 09:41

Bugger in obviously not awake yet, the above was about Brighton and Hove

Boiledbeetle · 29/12/2022 09:40

It's look at the map but realise I have absolutely no bloody clue whatsoever what part of the map t o look at.

I never even know where to look for where I actually live mind either.

I think along with vaginas, my list of things to look at today needs maps of the UK added to it.

Many people around Brighton and Hove have a lot to put up with. Particularly the ones concerned with safeguarding and equality of access for all.

I'm off to bed, hopefully, please please please, to sleep.

Scotland still blindingly looking more pissed off than anywhere else and it's nearly at 8000. And there's still the annoying grey spots.

goodnight women of the web

Boiledbeetle · 28/12/2022 22:55

Oh I know they will. I'm just impatient, which is why come Christmas morning i had no presents left to open.

Buzzinwithbez · 28/12/2022 22:21

I've a friend in one of those but her parent isn't well so I don't want to badger her. Given that there are signatures from there on the EA one, I'm sure someone will find it soon!

Boiledbeetle · 28/12/2022 20:35

Ooh So we are now down to 6 areas on 0 signatures. Now I'm weirdly invested in seeing every constituency be represented on this bill.

So the hold outs are:

West Tyrone
Tamworth
Leicester East
Harrow East
Ilford South
Middlesbrough

I don't know anyone in any of those places to badger though.

I actually asked the question because Scottish women are such strong women how has this happened ? I don’t quite understand why but the answer was that independence was dangled again and some felt that trumped womens rights ?

It's the 'wheesht for Indy' attitude - independence being the most important thing and everything else can be sorted out afterwards. Basically 'shut up women, we'll get to you later' I.e. never.

As to how it happened, there's always been a push for us to be the most 'progressive' place and the forthrightedness and general take no shit attitude of Scottish women has taken a back seat to this.

I honestly believe instead of all this 'be kind' stuff, the first person to say (in all seriousness) 'sex is a spectrum' should have been met outright with a 'of course it isn't, get a grip of yourself' instead of the pandering that's got us to where we are now.

It's good to see this gaining ground. Looks like it will comfortably hit 10k.

Thanks @HopRockers, had missed the third. Now signed and also asked my OH also. Such a relief to see I'm not the only one losing sleep over this!

That was me last week. I’ve calmed down a bit since then.

Very angry. Startled next doors dog.
