I sent the petition link to my parents in law this morning- mother in law has sent it on to 10 of her female colleagues, many of whom
Have daughters of their own and asked them to sign and pass it on. Hoping for a few more signatures to appear. I’m nt the most eloquent poster in these matters so just tying to do my bit this way :-)

That's brilliant daughter.

daughterofanarchy · 22/06/2018 09:18

I really hope they sign and see the importance of this- would be a bit disappointing if they don’t.

Update- out of the fair few people I sent the petition link to, three men and one woman have told me they’ve signed it. Two other women have told me that they can’t support the petition as they feel It “discriminated” against transitioning people. I don’t feel that it does but each to their own I suppose.

Transpeaked my old mp yesterday, he's retired. Met him by chance. Chatted the old politics, told him about writing to our new mp , why , and how my mp had replied. He knew nothing about any of this shit storm. He promised me he would us his contacts to investigate the matter. He then jokingly questioned which changing room he should use, male or female?
