On Monday there is an amendment being tabled in the House of Lords to the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill which would stop men being held in women’s prisons.
Anyone on twitter please tweet #KeepProsonsSingleSex and #Amendment214 to show strength of feeling.

Baroness Meyer is fantastic!

MrsJamin · 15/11/2021 21:33

Will they vote tonight? I have no idea how these things work!

Isthatthebestyoucando · 15/11/2021 21:33

''But there's only been 7 attacks or assisted attacks by TW''.

Only 7 lives irrevocably changed then, what are they moaning about?

@MrsJamin

Indeed it was sickening how much Brinton focussed on the numbers - as if small numbers of women being hurt or abused wasn't a big deal. Baroness Meyer is doing much better - thank you Baroness Meyer! It is indeed absurdity.
Yes it's exactly the argument they used for the GRA. It was a shit argument then and it's a shit argument now.

You wait till you read some of her other views Isthatthebestyoucando, it's a very mixed bag!

But a sane argument against an insane policy is to be welcomed whoever says it.

MrsJamin · 15/11/2021 21:46

By my reckoning 5/7 pro the amendment, 2/7 against so far? How many will speak? What happens next? I have no idea but they are shedding light on this debate!

ArabellaScott · 15/11/2021 21:47

It's all sunlight. It's excellent to have these issues discussed calmly and moderately.

ArabellaScott · 15/11/2021 21:47
  • and I expect we will be looking carefully at the voting. And noting who supports the inclusion of sex offending males in women's prisons.

Lord Hunt! He's a star on this issue, and, astonishingly, a Labour peer.

ArabellaScott · 15/11/2021 21:51

I am amazed! I was braced for a rant!

Shami Chakrabarti's approach is to sneer.

Everytime I see these Speakers for the HoL, with many well read speakers I appreciate them more.

Isthatthebestyoucando · 15/11/2021 21:55

I don't think anyone's strayed too far from the point.
