Minister for Equalities invites Mridul Wadhwa to meeting to discuss LGBT+ hate crime

The meeting features several trans women. Wadhwa famously applied for a job reserved for women at the Edinburgh rape crisis centre, told women who weren't happy with men in their support groups to "reframe their trauma" and was forced out after an investigation.

It looks like she has deleted her post! 😬

Homophobia never went away, unfortunately. As well as the old fashioned type of prejudice, we also have a movement that claims people who are same sex atracted are bigoted, who give workshops in how to 'overcome the cotton ceiling' (how men can get into lesbians knickers), who tell children if they are gender incongruent then maybe they are in the 'wrong' body, etc.

Soros if a full on supporter and funder of gender ideology.

Yes, Sheila Jeffreys at the We Need to Talk meeting at the HoP. I was there. Pink News sent an “undercover” female reporter who looked miserable and obvious and the TRAs latched onto that description. At the time she was discussing the men who literally wore latex woman suits!

Oh that’s horrible, your poor DD, I’m glad the conductor was there. Now she has the stress of going to court as well. I hope she feels justice is done.

Yes indeed, that's why it seemed so unlikely. GC activities, judging by what I've read, seem by contrast to be more of a cottage industry. People setting up crowdfunding to pursue employment tribunals and legal cases.

I suppose Elon's the other major exception - I seem to remember he was inveighing against Netflix broadcasting a kids' cartoon with a trans characer last autumn. But many of the oligarch class seem pretty gender ideology-friendly to me.

I'm amazed that government thought that it was sensible to

• Invite MW et al, to this meeting
• Not invite representatives of the LGB (without the TQ+) community
• Publicize that the meeting took place

It really speaks to this part of government being the loudest of echo chambers

I am guessing that the rapid removal of the tweet will be blamed on the 'bigoted' responses in the comments so the whole thing can be brushed under the carpet and ignored. This was not the case - from what I read, the comments were in good faith, simply pointing out the serious flaws in government's thinking.

When given a chance to respond to the government's approval of privileged men being allowed to invade women's spaces, the general public's response is no!

My guess is that going forward, the echo chamber will remain strong, the government's position will not change and there will be tighter controls on MP's tweets. These moments when the curtain is lifted to fully expose government thinking will become less and less common.

Even with the original tweet gone, if you do a search for replies to Bailey you can get a good idea of the nature of the replies:

For future reference, a date-bracketed search is best:

https://x.com/search?q=to%3Aoliviabaileymp%20since%3A2026-03-11%20until%3A2026-03-14&src=typed_query&f=top

Unfortunately though, the searches only show results for those with an account.

I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter's experience.

Let's get real here: that's the kind of anti-lesbian violence that should be a thing of the past because everybody is so #bekind now, rainbow flags everywhere, and 'nobody cares who you sleep with', but it hasn't gone away, and it is now joined by a new version of anti-lesbian activity: male 'lesbians'.

Please tell your daughter that she has lots of support here, not only in dealing with the trauma of the attack, but in courageiously going to court. She's not alone.

She's also very lucky to have such a thoughtful and supportive mother💐

The respectable transwoman in Sevenoaks wouldn’t touch this circus with a barge pole.

It is classic of Labour in its current incarnation and the champagne socialist movement in general. They are terrified of diversity, they dislike democracy, and believe that anyone who does not agree with them only does so because they are wrong and should be punished/forced into more appropriate ways by their betters. It's the worst kind of 1970s upper middle class conservatism with red rosettes.

In 2009, when Olivia Bailey was Women's Officer for the National Union of Students (NUS), I asked for a meeting with her, to ask if she would consider overturning the decision by the NUS to no-platform me

(introduced on the grounds of my 'transphobia'). It had already had aprofoundly negative affect on my feminist campaigning work, and reputationally it was terrible - I was the first individual to be no-platformed, alongside fascist groups.

She said 'no', and that no member of the NUS could share a platform with me unless it were overturned.This meant that students were not able to listen to my arguments, either re gender madness, or on male violence in general. The motion was headed, 'Julie Bindle (sic) is vile.

I kid you not. I despise her for this. Posturing wazzock.

You have to wonder about her moral compass and that of her disgraced father, recently resigned from Bracknell Forest Council after fundraising for their rape apologist former mayor and her rapist son.

'Cuckooking' was part of the plan set out in the Dentons document, as was targeting young people.

Not everyone has heard of the Dentons document, and it's not all that easy to find online these days, so I always post this link:
Analysis of the Dentons Document: A How to Manual - Women Speak Tasmania

It's almost spooky how the contents of something produced in 2019 as a 'How To' manual for the transgender movement have come to pass, e.g

• Incremental change: Introduce reforms step by step rather than all at once, to avoid backlash.
• Piggybacking on other causes: Attach trans rights to broader equality, diversity, or anti-discrimination initiatives to normalise them.
• Strategic framing: Use language that resonates positively (e.g., “equality,” “human rights”) and avoid terms that may provoke opposition.
• Youth mobilisation: Position young people as the face of reform efforts, emphasising innocence and urgency to gain public sympathy.
• Litigation and legal tools: Where possible, bring test cases to courts to compel governments to adapt laws.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

I think the billionaire class have adopted it as a) a form of social camouflage to try and reduce the ire of the ‘Kill the rich’ activists and b) through being sexists.

At any rate, it’s purely cynical.

I’m kind of glad that they published the photo because they actually confirmed something we’ve long suspected: they aren’t listening to women, not even the brave women who won important tribunals and court cases, and they’re still feeling comfortable with being lobbied by the usual TRA groups.

They showed their true alignment.

The F-ing audacity of this bloke who is clearly determined to exert control over women.

NC really opened my eyes to this aspect when she had Dr U on the stand. That they’re highly motivated by a drive for control and dominance over women and have found a path to doing so whilst being stunning and brave. Either controlling women by leveraging the bekind hand maidens to do so on their behalf. Or directly on women by moving into female only spaces and leveraging SW laws to be there. Hiding in plain sight.

I think a mistake people often make when they aren't very aware of gender stuff - I certainly did - is to assume that any men who identify as women will have a positive attitude towards women, and therefore can't possibly pose any kind of threat.

But it's become increasingly apparent that there is a contingent (not all!) who are at best ambivalent towards actual women, and in some cases actively hostile. And some who wouldn't consider themselves hostile have unpleasantly pornographic notions of what a woman is and how she can be (and, worse still, "really wants to be") treated.

Shocking article

Wasn't Epstein hosting a surgeon who does gender affirming stuff and there was the email with the academic about transing children. There's another stupidly rich bunch, Pritz...something? I vaguely remember one is a TiM, twins? Unless I'm getting mixed up with the twin brothers (both now trans-identifying) who directed the Matrix.

Epstein hosted Jess Ting, surgeon who castrated Jazz jennings.

Jennifer Pritzker of the Pritzker Foundation.

The Wachalsky brothers directed the Matrix. Both have 'transitioned'. Both very sordid.

Hate crime hurts others and the one hating. I choose to be loving.

Love is hate. War is peace.

Live, laugh, love.

And - name me something that would not qualify as a 'hate crime' in Scotland.
