TIE campaign?

[Birdsfoottrefoil]

Does anyone know much about this? They say they are campaigning to support LBGTI inclusion in Scotland but don’t seem so interested in ethnic diversity considering their ‘about us’ photo:

Scotland is 96% white, so if that group was exactly representative, you'd expect one non-white person, probably Asian.

There are also no lesbians involved in the campaign.

ARE WE SURPRISED??

I read recently that they didn't get any funding from the Scottish Government to deliver the education programme.

Anyone know anything else?

One of my msps said she had signed up to it. It got a lot of publicity a few months back

Glad they didn't get funding Rihanna somebody or other has been giving Joan McA a hard time on twitter and got women to sign a letter saying TWAW BS.

Where we live is not racially diverse.

Rhiannon Spears who is Co-chair of TIE is very pro TRA and invited "sex workers" into Glasgow City Chambers to promote legalising prostitution (SNP policy is that it is violence against women - RS rejects that).

She was behind the letter signed by Emma Thompson which misrepresented the law. She likes to boast that 500 have signed it (over very long period) but quality of signatories is worrying - they incl the 2 transwomen who called Joan MacAlpine "trash" and also justified calling for violent action against women on grounds that violence against "terfs" didn't count. She has not removed their names.

She also made some pretty defamatory comments about Transgender Trend's schools advice on twitter.
