Sorry, I can't get a link to work, but Laura Kunnesberg was fairly rigorously interviewing NS this morning.
LK obviously knows her stuff, but NS was too slippery for her, imo.
The only thing that bugged me was LK using 'biological woman' twice. Why not just say woman? It seems to be the user-friendly 'cis'

While I'd much rather live in a world where I could safely use the word woman and we all agreed on what that meant. We don't, and slimers like Nicola Sturgeon will happily trumpet a defence of "women" only spaces, knowing fine well that her definition includes men. Unfortunately I will need the word "woman" to be prefixed with natal or biological for some considerable time until there is a degree of trust restored (which I don't think will ever happen, I sincerely hope I'm wrong).

She's going to get sooooo unstuck.

I'd not thought of that Highwindows, good point

I really wanted LK to point out that the organisations Sturgeon rattled off are funded by the Scottish Govt and that their funding is conditional on them sticking to the TRA narrative. I'm pretty pissed off she didn't. She knows this so why didn't she point it out for all those who might not yet be aware?

HighWindows1 has said exactly what I thought

Biological is preferable to cis

She wanted to do What? The stupid @#£%&. 16! Why would anyone want to lower a drinking age. Increase to 21 great, but lower? God does she have a brain in her head
