On Tuesday 20th Dec there will be the Stage 3 debate in the Scottish Parliament, the final debate over the last amendments that can be made to the Gender Recognition Reform Bill. A final vote on whether to pass the Bill will be made on Wed 21st. On both days the debates/votes will happen from 2pm onwards. You can apply for tickets to attend both sessions if you want.
To protest against the likely passing of this self ID, For Women Scotland are organising a demo outside Holyrood before the Wed afternoon session, from 1-2pm. Please do come along and let Scottish MSPs know your opinion on the Bill, and tell them to come it down.

Bumping. Bus ticket booked. I’ll see you there.

beastlyslumber · 11/12/2022 10:51

Bumping. I can't be there - I'm at the other end of the country. Hope hundreds of people can make it!

334bu · 11/12/2022 11:11

Hope to be there.

Igmum · 12/12/2022 17:53

Bumping for you. I'm just a wee Sassenach who is at work anyway, but sending solidarity and respect to the Scotswomen who won't wheest

tedgran · 12/12/2022 18:08

I'm too far away, best of luck 🤞

Waitwhat23 · 12/12/2022 22:58

For once, the stars have aligned and I can make this one. Looking forward to it!

Whereareyourshoes · 18/12/2022 10:11

Gutted I am away but bumping for anyone who can make it. I am celebrating each and every one of you for being a source of light in these dark times for women’s rights in Scotland.

💚🤍💜

Good luck Women of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

HopRockers · 18/12/2022 11:29

I'm not comfortable coming with 3 children (2 of whom really hate crowds 🤦🏻‍♀️) but will be with you in spirit 💚🤍💜

Think it’s all part of the grand plan to destroy women’s rights during the school holidays when so many of us have caring responsibilities. But we keep fighting on in whatever ways we can. This will not be the end point!

DD lives in Edinburgh and is a pal of the FWS crowd. She will be there. And is also krav maga trained, if any TRA counter protesters turn violent…

Smurhee · 18/12/2022 13:04

I'm pretty sure I met your fab DD at the last one, Babdoc ☺️

Whereareyourshoes · 18/12/2022 15:16

Here’s to a peaceful protest 💚🤍💜

Babdoc · 18/12/2022 21:01

Once seen, never forgotten, Smurhee! She is quite a character, and has never let her autism get in the way of her political involvement. Brill sense of humour too - her “Day 1 of Boyhood” series on YouTube is a merciless mickey take of Mulvaney.
I think she’s up to about episode 31 now.

stealtheatingtunnocks · 19/12/2022 03:16

OMB @Babdoc i saw that for the first time today! She is brilliant

Waitwhat23 · 19/12/2022 19:38

Just saw this sketch - thought it was bloody funny -

Rally start time has changed to 12.45pm instead of 1pm - twitter.com/ForWomenScot/status/1605514132920209408?s=20&t=CjcJ_KbOwO-5umf5r4pnXw

ValancyRedfern · 21/12/2022 11:01

Wish I could be there. More power to all of you there today.

BlackForestCake · 21/12/2022 11:03

Wish I could be there but have to work.

beastlyslumber · 21/12/2022 14:45

Godspeed, ladies!

Waitwhat23 · 21/12/2022 16:06

I've seen reports that there were at least 500 people at the rally.

There's a brilliant video of the protesters chanting 'women won't wheesht'.

beastlyslumber · 21/12/2022 16:18

Those are great pictures! It looks like an amazing turnout.

HopRockers · 21/12/2022 16:40

Wish I could have been there, thank you to all who went 💐

Smurhee · 21/12/2022 17:09

I wish I'd been able to go but it was over £100 on the train. I wish you all well 💚🤍💜
