The Defiant Ones
What a week. As Nicola Sturgeon packs her bags my @TheScotsman column in praise of the real feminists who stood up for the women and girls of Scotland https://t.co/ijWkE1NKAI

Susan Dalgety with a great piece for The Scotsman which explains that the women of Scotland were not taken in by Nicola Sturgeon's baloney claims about self-ID being just a minor, administrative, tidying-up exercise - but a threat to women's rights and single sex spaces.
"In the end, the ‘real’ feminists of Scotland saw through Sturgeon."They saw not a role model or a sister-in-arms, but a clever, calculating politician who cynically donned feminism around the same time she started wearing jewel-coloured dresses, and who imperiously dismissed any critical female voices as “not valid”. The women and girls of Scotland deserve better.
"No matter who becomes the next First Minister, or what happens to Sturgeon’s network of women with “some access to power”, there is a legion of women out there who will do their best to make sure that women’s voices are never silenced again."
