JK Rowling set up and fully funds a women’s refuge because, thanks to men like him, raped women in Scotland had no single sex support service.

- Finally men won’t be allowed to smash women in the face live on TV and win medals for it. Well done, World Boxing Shame on the IOC (who allowed it in Paris) & male sports writers who cared more about a man’s feelings than the safety of women & their right to fair sport 🥊
- On February 26 the England cricket team will play Afghanistan. WHY? Are England men happy to validate a regime which denies women all human rights from education to simply walking in a park? Now the Taliban are cracking down even on women going online. Boycott the ICC.
- Women are not just hobbled men, smaller men, lesser men, men who adjust their body chemistry. We are our own selves and we deserve our own sports. My @thetimes on justice for female athletes. thetimes.co.uk/article/a1be04…
- Owen Jones is seriously encouraging his 1 million followers to harass a politician in the street, maybe outside his home, less than a year after David Amess was stabbed. Has he lost his mind?
- On @BBCWomansHour biological male, Robin Moira White, tells women if they object to getting undressed or showering in front of men, they should exit female facilities & change somewhere else. Male entitlement sure runs deep. This, of course, is the story of the Darlington nurses
00:00 - Only a man would think womanhood is a costume you can shed like a pair of high heels. My @thetimes column on "girl mode", "boy mode" & Eddie Izzard.
- Just when you think the case for women’s sex-based rights is clear, the Darlington nurses - forced to undress with a man - show how embedded gender misogyny is in our institutions. Shame on @UNISONSteve for his attacks on his own women members.
- Martine Croxall’s eye-roll spoke for a nation. It is time for the BBC to follow its own impartiality rules. My @thetimes column. thetimes.com/article/e67bb3…
- JK Rowling launches service for women victims of sexual violence before Scotland brings in self-ID law. thetimes.co.uk/article/354015…
- “Women have very little idea of how much men hate them": Germaine Greer. Well, from Plymouth to Kabul, from the far Right to the hard Left, today they aren't short of clues.
- This is like an old person getting a tattoo to impress the kidz. Pathetic, unoriginal, self-destructive & ugly. Imagine if you’d come here for quiet prayer & reflection because you were bereaved.
- Yes, we’ll #bekind and magnanimous. But the crazy, vicious, exhausting battle which cost women so much is over and - 🥂- we won. My @thetimes column. thetimes.com/article/dbc9ad…
- Protestors against the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman did this today. This is a statue commemorating not just Millicent Fawcett but all women who fought for female suffrage. In case anybody is in any doubt: this is a men’s rights movement
