Very glad this is on her radar. But will she do an Alice Roberts and betray us?

"Ok, So Trans Women are women Janice, lets clear that up!"

Ok... So Yaniv is a woman and Yaniv's balls are female balls. Gotcha.
This person advises the Scottish government?

"Ok, So Trans Women are women Janice, lets clear that up!"

I feel there's part of that sentence missing where it actually gets cleared up.

nettie434 · 20/07/2019 12:45

[shocked] Those tweets Sunset! I can’t imagine how anyone who has read up on the case could tweet those replies

SunsetBeetch · 20/07/2019 12:47

Wow.

"I believe if you wish to provide a public service then you cant pick and choose what members of the public you offer treatment to, Under the UK Equality Act that is very clear. A beautician has to have qualifying experience on male and female, especially waxing."

This person is dangerous.

Yes and you better piss off before I hunt you down.

Morgane has spoken.

SunsetBeetch · 20/07/2019 12:55

True colours there, Morgane.

No different from TRAs sayjng lesbians should "learn to cope" with penises, is it?

andyoldlabour · 20/07/2019 12:56

Oh well, at least we can see Morgane Ogre for what they really are, the shutters have been opened.

andyoldlabour · 20/07/2019 12:57

Sorry, I meant Oger Grin

terfsandwich · 20/07/2019 13:03

Yep true colours. Give them enough rope etc.

Ugh.

boatyardblues · 20/07/2019 13:21

Naughty Andy. Wink

Gone2far · 20/07/2019 18:47

Well, given that EM did a section on No Outsiders in Birmingham schools, on a recent Newsnight, that was utterly uncritical of what was being taught, I doubt it. She was in conversation with a female labour MP (? Hardy) and, as I said, she gave her a free ride on this, when she should, and could, have posited an alternative pov.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 20/07/2019 20:38

Miss Leeze "advises the government" in the same way that I "go to the gym" - with exaggerated frequency and impact.

He is, bizarrely, influential though. There's a little gang of trans people who are centrally funded to tell Holyrood how to think. It's fascinating, especially when so few of these advisors seem to have big thoughts.

nauticant · 20/07/2019 21:58

Miss Sleaze of course, but as ever, getting a kick off doing what they do in plain sight.

LassOfFyvie · 20/07/2019 22:11

Under the UK Equality Act that is very clear. A beautician has to have qualifying experience on male and female, especially waxing."

What nonsense.

boatyardblues · 20/07/2019 22:44

There’s a specific sex exemption for activities or services which include physical contact. I’m sure Jacky knows which clause it is and will be along at some point with a link.

OneEndedStick · 20/07/2019 23:21

It's a quota system, isn't it? There must be a set minimum of 20% must use a spelling variation of "sleaze" for a surname, as some kind of homage to the porn industry that has been so inspirational for so many males creating their Male-Pattern Balding-Crisis identities.
I miss the days when they'd just buy a red sports car and a harshly coloured toupé.

Yaniv has peaked Craig potter from elbow

Ooh. Emily Maitlis just got peak transed by Yaniv.
SonicVersusGynaephobia · 21/07/2019 13:28

Craig peaked aaages ago. Craig is a very sensible man.

MagneticSingularity · 21/07/2019 14:13

From a user on that thread: block Spiked and read about these things from more reliable sources

Um, yes, that would be lovely, but the only thing that the more ‘reliable’ sources seem to have for us on the subject of JY’s human right to perform the chiffon scarf test on his ladyballs is tumbleweed and crickets so...

AlwaysComingHome · 21/07/2019 14:19

Nick Cohen is the same. Spiked have reported the story - therefore it’s not true. Not remotely interested in checking other sources. Arsehole.

Manderleyagain · 21/07/2019 14:37

Nick Cohen's comment on this was pretty pathetic.

nauticant · 21/07/2019 16:29

I'd missed that. For anyone else who did:

twitter.com/NickCohen4/status/1152512480733794305

The astonishing irony is that Cohen's very high self-regard rests on having written a book that's summarised on Amazon as follows:

From the much-loved, witty and excoriating voice of journalist Nick Cohen, a powerful and irreverent dissection of the agonies, idiocies and compromises of mainstream liberal thought. Nick Cohen comes from the Left.

slipperywhensparticus · 21/07/2019 16:43

So, wait, under the UK equality act those people who refused to assist a woman who had complications after an incomplete abortion were breaking the law?

And since when can untrained people be forced to provide a service they are not qualified for? I wouldn't let someone untrained wax my bits and actually pay for it why do people think it's ok?

colouringinpro · 21/07/2019 16:46

Ricky Gervais has also put out some excellent tweets on this Grin
