This is probably the best TV coverage of this. Now onto Pips. I am gobsmacked.

So bloody disingenuous!! SG!! No f'ing clue as to why people and children are sex segregated.... apparently.
Under the equality act they are treated as girls!

All Susie really had to say was "trans girls are girls". Dfod.

I hope the public didn't buy that harmless child line...there may be mothers happy for their daughters to share a tent with someone male bodied but I expect many fathers wouldn't be.

I only heard the end but I think Susie parroting trans girls are girls will have raised a few eyebrows. Did anyone mention the possibility of self id men as Guide leaders? From a safe guarding point of view I find that much more concerning than a handful of confused teen boys which doesn't mean I would be happy about them sharing facilities either.

I hope we can watch it on catchup. I've heard Caroline speak before, she's brilliant. She very politely gives zero fucks.

That's brightened my morning. TRAs have been forcing through their nonsense for too long. Time to push back.

I'm not on twitter, but would it be worth posting a link to the consultation? I have been shocked at how few people are aware of it. I just feel it would be worth posting the link onto every twitter thread and newspaper comments section.

“you are picking on them...you are othering them” Ummm...boys are 'other' as far as girls are concerned. Calling them transgirls doesn't change the fact that they're boys.

Lots of people in the comments saying they want to know who is around their children. Can anyone on Twitter share the link to the FPFW consultation page on that thread?

I just asked my 14 yo granddaughter if on a school trip she would happy sharing sleeping and showering spaces with a boy identifying as a girl. Her answer was 'No they are still a boy, and boys are horrible'.

Right. So on risk of pregnancy for the girls, Susie Green is asking us to believe that trans girls are so lovely and fluffy and harmless that they don't have sex, ever? Pull the other one Susie, this is teenagers we're talking about.
