I hope the link works, not done one before . Very relieved to read that my local police & crime commissioner (newly elected) has openly stood up in support of women and has been very clear on his position and even re-iterated his position whilst acknowledging that his comments had "angered some"

But Mr Wilkinson also said: "But I will not support those who use their strength to intimidate those less strong, or to exploit any circumstances to intimidate or harm others."

As for the BBC reporting "Being trans is a protected characteristic in law"

Yay! There must be quite a few of them now then, hopefully more to follow soon. Courage calls and all that

God that BBC article is a biased mess though eh?

Sorry just seen that there has already been a thread on this. But still, yay!!! He's my local one so I was rather pleased

Yes absolutely atrocious article, my Y6 DD can write better news reports than that

Have reported the article to the BBC for factual inaccuracy. Good on that man though.

Good to see more of them willing to speak up to protect women.
I'm sure it will encourage more.
