Rachel Johnson acknowledges that it is OK to know that TWAM in her own terfy circles, but the Scottish hates laws and JKRs lead means she is saying it out loud. She is not the only one, with the important free speech angle acting as an added incentive.

There is an article in the Mail today about how many more resources the Scottish police are gong to need to deal with hate crime complaints. RJ (RaJo like BoJo?) helpfully provides a link so she too can be reported.

Rachel Johnson: When it comes to trans issues, JK Rowling is the heir to Orwell

We turn to a toxic subject I haven’t been brave enough to tackle in all my years as a columnist, and I’ll briefly explain why.

I remember Rachel from the Big Brother interviews about Willoughby. I guess the more that add to the momentum helps.

JK Rowling has started her own "I am Sparticus" moment.

Decent piece. I sigh at people with status, power, and influence who might have helped prevent matters from getting to this point but JKR has done this for everyone who accepts the reality of sex matters.

The golden bridge is shining and it's time for it to attract many people across.

That link just took me to a random "answer this irrelevant question before reading" so I'll need a better link, because I don't do that shite.
