Holyrood elect her

[stealtheatingtunnocks]

I’m going to this tomorrow. It’s a thing to get women into politics. Also includes women who have barriers to standing in politics which are different from mine.

anyeone else?

I'm not in Scotland but was interested by your post.

Is it this one https://www.elect-her.org.uk/scotlands-women-gather

Many of those attending had expressed concerns at the organisers insistence that you declared whether you 'identify as a woman' when applying for a ticket and they later admitted that males were to be included. One of the speakers is a male and there has been protesters outside the Scottish Parliament today in rainbow/trans colours, including a bizarre looking cart with a flag on the top.

Should have known.

I wonder what the policy is of the group 50:50 Parliament.

Hard to tell, but also so sad that every time we see the word woman we have to ask what the person using that word means https://5050parliament.co.uk/about-us/

It was Edinburgh Pride today too, the march gathered by Holyrood before starting.

I don’t honk I have ever been so patronised than by elect her.

the activism panel had no fucking idea about who they had in the room and what work those women had done, charities they had set up.

and to have male women there. Ridiculous. Some women couldn’t get tickets , but the males did?

completely pointless exercise

WRN Scotland have done a good thread about yesterday -
