That looks so amazing. Thanks for sharing the pics!

I did watch a fair bit of the footage and it brought a tear. It’s stirring to see everyone there and hearing the women.

The most shocking part of the demo is the late revelation (photos previous page) that Wellington isn’t wearing a traffic cone? Does he or does he not identify as an integral part of roadworks?

Next mystery of the day: Why on earth did the TRAs choose Dylan Thomas' 'rage against the dying of the light' to read out? It's a poem about his father's death. Odd.

Wellington statue isn't in Gge Square, he's round the corner at the GoMA.

Ah, and the 'cabaret' singing was masking this:

Always.

The violence. The sexual violence threats and obscenities. The exhibitionism.

They cant help themselves. Because it isn't a bug.

ArabellaScott · 05/02/2023 16:27

Someone was asking what the TRAs speeches were about.

They sang some karaoke songs. They did a conga. And someone read a Dylan Thomas poem about bereavement.

That's a fair summation of their 'argument'.

LadyMary50 · 05/02/2023 16:27

Magnificent,women will win this battle because we are RIGHT💪

ArabellaScott · 05/02/2023 16:29

Mind you, I can't imagine what speeches they could have come up with to counter women protesting rapists in prison:

'Can you give us three minutes on why rapists have a right to electrolysis on the NHS, Quinn?'

'Er, no, but we could do the hokey cokey in rainbow leggings?'

Given the context, I don't think he wants to have intercourse with Kelly. The F word has a number of meanings.

Well you never know Marge. I mean I know a lot of men who would you know!

ArabellaScott · 05/02/2023 16:38

Egregious crimes against apostrophes here, can't believe the police didn't do anything:

I think that they are trying to connect the Literal Trans Genocide and 50% suicide rate to something classy. The little radges.

This. I can’t forgive or minimize these people. The recent case with ‘Isla’ should have alerted them to the fact there is a serious point being made here that they need to look into. Instead they have stuffed their ears to drown out the ‘difficult’ counter narrative and partied when women are talking about rape, safeguarding and the right of women and girls to have the most basic boundaries.

i can’t forgive that level of deliberate ignorance and callousness.

They come across as vain , shallow and very stupid. But they're probably normal kids?

Of course I knew everything when I was 18. If only I still did.

Just seems so random and incoherent. I like a bit of Thomas as much as the next woman [shut it at the back] but I can't see the relevance.

Can't the police did nothing to the guy that assaulted the woman...oh, wait...actually, doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

No, the police won’t bother with threats of violence because those are against women but a teacher will be investigated for ’threats’ against Tories. We shouldn’t be surprised though. People mostly men who are drawn to abusing power are instinctively strategic about how to influence and capture institutional sources of power.

ArabellaScott · 05/02/2023 16:44

I think there were two furries representing.

I bet Forbidden Planet is regretting the safe space offer!

A total of 2 furries attended the protest and all Forbidden Planet got out of it was a whole load of twitter abuse for stocking Harry Potter merch.

ArabellaScott · 05/02/2023 16:47

A tale of two protests.

Look at the sea of people one end and the space around the people at the other end.

What a vile disgusting thing to say, this is why you lot are seen as dramatic and ridiculous and bigoted!

It's none of the above, actually, it's all hugely documented and factual. Did you miss the protest, with the MSPs standing next to nutters with "Decapitate TERFs" signs? Or the "Isla" Bryon debacle and MPs & MSPs defending the decision to send him to Cornton Vale women's prison?
