Badenoch: You cannot change your biological sex
Kemi Badenoch has said “you cannot change your biological sex” as she reacted to the Supreme Court’s ruling. “Saying ‘trans women are women’ was never true in fact, and now isn’t true in law either,” the leader of the Conservative Party said. “This is a victory for all of the women who faced personal abuse or lost their jobs for stating the obvious. Women are women and men are men: you cannot change your biological sex. “The era of Keir Starmer telling us women can have penises has come to an end. Well done to For Women Scotland!” |

@sharrond62 From now on I don’t want to see any media outlet refer to a man in a dress who rapes, abuses or murders someone as a woman! These are NOT our crimes. what Sharon, like this? : https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-new...rsery-35056718 https://x.com/Glinner/status/1912132816420163897 |

The Supreme Court’s ruling has “badly let down” transgender people, the
Scottish Greens have said. A pro-transgender group has claimed gender-critical campaigners have “links to the global far-Right” as it condemned the Supreme Court’s ruling. In a statement, Labour for Trans Rights said: “The Supreme Court’s decision is hugely disappointing, and a result of ceaseless lobbying from a well-funded anti-trans network with links to the global far-Right.

Sex matters in a lot of ways especially for women and so we need to keep a clear definition. Putting this down to some far right agenda is a way of trying to shut down very real and genuine concerns women have. It matters for us in so many different cases. I can't believe some people - even after rapists had been sent to women's prisons on some occasions and attempted to be sent to on others - still try to act like women don't really care about protecting our rights and spaces and "just hate transwomen" That isn't to say that there aren't groups who've jumped on that wagon because they are far right just like groups with more nefarious reasons will have joined the opposite "side", unfortunately that's just life.

Many think this will make women safer, but it won't really, because women aren't at risk from trans women, they are at risk from cis men, who if they want to attack a woman will do just that.
The next stop will likely be ensuring all trans people use the bathroom of the sex they were born as which will result in a load of bearded, muscular trans men sharing a space with biological women. We'll see how well that goes down

![]() Ash Regan MSP@AshReganMSP @ForWomenScot won their appeal in the Supreme Court. Women’s concerns were valid, women’s rights do matter and the Supreme Court have confirmed the law matches biological reality. 3 Scottish mums humiliated the Scottish Government. This cannot be without consequences! |

self-oscillating

like with all political causes, there are bad actors involved that are hellbent on deliberately manipulating the system and therefore common norms for their own benefit. It's no accident that so many top companies took up the cause, they earned money from it.
It's pretty sad that it required the supreme court to make a ruling as law that simply follows scientific reality |

It's 100% the right decision in terms of safeguarding and in terms of legal clarity e.g. diversity and inclusion statistics - ultimately it had to be this way or there's total chaos.
That said, while I agree with the decision, I also these days have to acknowledge that it will be celebrated/agreed with "for the wrong reasons" by a large group of people, in a more pointed and agenda-driven manner, as a "victory against woke" that has nothing to do with the actual issue. That will come mainly from people who don't give a **** about safeguarding and to be frank who are often the LAST people I'd have around women and children, rather than the vast majority of trans people. For that reason I'm wary of not acknowledging the double-edged sword. Again though legally it is 100% the right decision and (hopefully) can be the start of some more sensible/reasonable legislation that protects everyone. |

You're not really wanting to be left alone when you're constantly advocating for laws that compel speech and force your presence on people who don't necessarily want you in their changing rooms tbf.
