Really important set of tweets from Fair Cop - first one here:

- The College of Policing say in their skeleton argument that ‘Trans women are not women’ is NOT a political statement but is rather de facto evidence of Hate. As is implying that women do not have beards.
- The CoP also take the position that an enquiry into whether a rape committed by a transwoman should be entered as a Male or Female crime is also not a relevant political question but is also a de facto signifier of Hate.
- The CoP state that any criticism of the Meraids CEO in relation to the transing of her child is de facto evidence of Hate. As is questioning the policy of transitioning children.
- The CoP tell us that it is none of our goddam business where they get their training in gender and diversity from. Stonewall good, critics bad. End of.
- The CoP make it clear that criticism of transwomen in female sport is not a legitimate political position but is de facto evidence of hate.
- Meanwhile, @Humberbeat maintain that they can foresee no circumstances where a non crime crime report on a crime sheet would be disclosed in an enhanced dbs. Except, maybe, if you want to work in schools. Or with vulnerable people. So, no worries there, then.
- Finally, unapologetic ask for cash: we have an additional 25k to pay by Tuesday. Please go to our pinned tweet and share like hell.
I am beyond anger and into despair and weeping. Criticism of trans women in sport is a hate crime. What the actual FUCK?
