Without wishing to be a pedant, I would point out that this part of the article is inaccurate:

'Rape Crisis Scotland was embroiled in its own gender scandal ehen it hired a trans woman to be CEO of the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre. Mridul Wadhwa left the role under a cloud after being found to have forced out a support worker because they believed that women deserved women-only services that didn't include biological men.'

Rape Crisis Scotland did not hire MW, as ERCC is an independent charity, responsible for its own hiring decisions. Hence it was ERCC who lost at tribunal to Roz Adams rather than Rape Crisis Scotland. Nevertheless, Rape Crisis Scotland is clearly problematic and as the umbrella body for Rape Crisis Centres in Scotland had a key role in supporting the evolving culture whereby the appointment of MW was seen as acceptable. And I agree, they have clearly learnt nothing.

'Heads must roll' at Rape Crisis Scotland as SNP Minister slated for response

The Scottish Government's Equalities Minister Kaukab Stewart faced a grilling over the 'scathing' report into Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre which led to the resignation of trans chief executive Mridul Wadhwa.

That judgement is absolutely damning in the extreme. Exposes Mridul for the soap box jumping, rights appropriating, extreme mysoginist HE is. Exposes the whole TRA movement. Fucking bravo to Roz Adams and if this fight has cost her a penny, I’d take on a go fund me. I stalled reading two thirds of the way because I got so angry I had to post. We have been wailing and furious about this man, Mridul for YEARS! It took Roz to take him down. May she have every penny and grace needed to finish the job.

Resurrecting this thread because it seems that they've learned nothing, they've only gone and hired Allison Thewliss

This was discussed on other threads earlier in the year.

Partly because they drew attention to it by trying to stop it being made public. ie

Scottish Tory equalities spokeswoman Tess White mentioned the Thewliss hiring during a Holyrood committee on February 25 but was immediately shut down by the SNP members. And now it has emerged that ministers had no knowledge of the decision to hire the former MP until it was raised by Ms White.

Not that it doesn't stop it being shocking.
