A group of women's rights activists were refused service and kicked out of a student union bar they had booked 'over their opinions and beliefs'.

Let Women Speak (LWS) had booked a private room at Glasgow University Union (GUU) where they planned to hold a social after their rally on Sunday.

LWS had gathered outside Glasgow University holding banners with slogans such as 'Terf Island' and 'we are all Sandie Peggie' - a reference to the NHS Fife nurse who was suspended after objecting to a transgender doctor using the women's changing rooms.

Yes, like a cross between Kenneth Williams and Squidward.

I expect they are feeling delighted with themselves and are basking in praise from TRAs and imagine themselves winning any legal challenge providing their judge isn’t transphobic (aka upholding the law)

Manager looked like a character from a sitcom.

Manager has the look of a man who's never thought for himself in his life

GUU has a long history of misogyny. It was men only until the early 1980s and had to be forced to admit women if I recall correctly. But this is shameful and surely unlawful ?

Pffft. That manager looks a right dweeb. I bet he nearly shit himself when a gang of capable, no-nonsense women turned up in his bar without a questionable pronoun in sight.

I can’t wait for the court case.

SHAME ON YOU GLASGOW

I really hope this gets to court!

“I can’t go into specifics.” Ha bloody ha.

Hope this blows up in their faces. Misogynist bullies is all they are.

Can't wait for the legal action.
