This group, Sisters Uncut, described as Times Up protesters did a BAFTA protest stunt that seems to have got quite a bit of positive coverage across the board, including Mail, Guardian, magazines etc eg:

Why the FUCK is their Edinburgh branch targetting a venue to demand it gives money to a very odd trans lobbying organisation that has tweeted it thinks punching women is OK?!?

The organisation they are demanding money for is Action for Trans Health, I have seen them mentioned on here and the Times has a piece on them which explains a lot more about the facts behind some of the concerns raised:

In the UK there were more trans identified male murderers than victims.

Is this true Bewilderness ?

Do you have a reliable source on this?

Thanks Empress that's really helpful.

Does anyone know where I would find comparable stats on normal biological women and men?

This twitter thread from a domestic abuse/violence survivor heartbreaking and seems to me to cut to the heart of what is so deeply disturbing about the behaviour of Sisters Uncut:

It is heartbreaking to read her come to the realization that most trans identified males are abusive male misogynist who have found a new and easy way to abuse women with the approval and encouragement of the government.

What are they saying on the tube now then? “Ladies, gentlemen and those who are pretending not to know which of the two they are.. ”
