Apologies in advance if this has been posted already, it's not one I have seen and it's clearly really important that we raise our voices.

I'll be submitting nearer the time - goodness knows we have plenty of consultations to submit to before then!

Deadline 19th February

Thanks. Do we have a summary anywhere of various consultations that we should be adding our voices to at the moment? Or was that just at the time of your original post?

I think this is a public survey and was posted some time ago. Easy to do but make sure you use all available space to write what you want because for some, the end came too soon

Check out Women Speak Scotland Life, that's pretty up to date with relevant consultations for women and FWR poster.
The Women and Equalities consultation attempt to take down Liz Truss is open too.

There's the WEC one on the GEO which I've been putting off. It's 17 Feb closing date.
I can't help feeling the sub text is getting rid of Liz Truss.

That's my opinion too. I have lots of notes and I'm going to talk about the mistrust building because bias appears to have become part of the equalities committee. The way the treated Dr Stock et al on the qualities committee was awful. I am also going to point out that A women's secretary of state should be totally seperate and my argument is that women are also included in disability, religion, race, sexual orientation (I am going to be very specific about the issues for lesbian women because I support them). I am not leaving out transmen but I'm a bit at a loss what to say on this one. Also going to talk about them trying to get rid of her and how underhand so many things have been and that Equalities may no longer be fit for purpose. That it is a growth industry and probably just more jobs for the boys

I am also going to mention that I'm sending this stuff to 'In Liz we Trust via my MP.

I would imagine, given the results in the AIBU threads, that anyone thinking women are just going to accept being trampled on, might want to think again.
