Wonder if this will finally penetrate with Sturgeon. She doesn't seem to be taking lessons from anyone still on this matter.

I wonder if other countries such as Canada and the US will take note

I guess if she shows even a hint of weakness the whole house of cards could collapse.

Sturgeon only appears to listen to and namecheck UN Rapporteurs when they have 'gender' in their titles. All the other ones can be ignored.

I wish it wasn't so.

Didn’t she give evidence to the massively flawed consultation, or at least speak out a while ago, but was ignored?

The tweet says;

Alice J Edwards UN Special Rapporteur Torture
''#Scotland: Female prisoners have a right to be protected from violent sex offenders no matter how they identify. Where is the common sense? Clearer guidelines are needed.
Tiffany Scott: Call to block trans prisoner's move to women's jail''

No that was the UN rapporteur on violence against women.

And they had to get the UN special rapporteur for supporting misogyny back again to try and drown out her point.

So these two UN rapporteurs, whose roles show them all too starkly what happens when women’s human rights are ignored, can see clearly how dangerous self ID is but NS prefers to listen to the gender woo rapporteur. That figures.
