Do they really think that anyone is going to buy the concept that women come from all over the world, in their hundreds, to talk about every single aspect of feminism and female oppression, just in order to be a cover for transphobia??

absolute tossers.

I remember them being "suspicious" that they hadn't heard of it before last year. Jolyon Maugham even weighed in to query its legitimacy.

Mr Cabaret Against Hate Speech in action last night trying to drum up support for his protest. Jenny was ejected from the club soon after, see her subsequent videos.

Is anyone there yet? Are there demonstrators?

Thre is a handful, look like they're at a distance.

A veiled threat to JK Rowling here, hoping police and security are on the ball.

At #FiLia2023. The queue is being entertained by a bunch of bampots outside led by a MAN informing us that none of us are under 30, the white in the suffragette colours is for white supremacy & we are antisemitic. they’re holding up signs saying “trans makes Glasgow”. Sad people.

This.

Being accused of being transphobic is feared by many and so they give up and give in.

More people need to say no, go away, we don't agree with you. Biological facts trump ideology. Thankfully more people are realising this.

Walked by on the way to work. The demo is across the road from women queueing to get into Filia...about 30 or so protestors. I was almost amused by the bearded bloke helping to hold a banner telling women that there's "no feminism without transwomen" banner. Almost.

Well, they all look uncomfortable.

That's Tom Harwood with the mic, again. 'Cabaret against Hate'.

Yes, more about Tom here. A lot of previous for harassing feminist women at these events.

I do hope onlookers and passing commuters will be curious and google Filia. That's a very busy station. Especially at rush hour.

I hope it's not unpleasant for women at Filia, but it is all excellent sunlight.

Harwood was at the Polo Lounge last night, trying to whip up hate against women. Jenny Watson was kicked out for apparently filming him.

a MAN informing us that none of us are under 30

Oh no! Who let the old women out?!

A man organising a hate rally against women and feminists. Fucking outrageous.

To any visitors to Glasgow - he does NOT represent our city. Glasgow has a long tradition of welcoming people, it's an open minded and friendly and kind hearted city.

Edit: for the most part.

Men seem to think they can hurt/offend/control us by saying that we're old/ugly/fat.

When will they learn that we don't care what they think?

He can't sing.

That is a man with a microphone in Central Glasgow yelling at women attending a feminist conference for being old and ugly.

I nominate Tom for Peak Sherpa of the week so far.

More people here now with signs reading ‘no to FiLiA’ and ‘no feminism without trans women’.

Cllr Elaine Gallagher seems to have skin in the game.

They'd have had time for a shower if they'd got up ten minutes earlier.

What is even the point of feminism if men aren't in charge of it?

Silly women.

Yes. Very young girls, huddled around a big, loud man with a megaphone. Way to go, anti feminists.

We'll be here for you when you need us.
