Single-sex spaces, where sex matters, should be organised according to sex. If *additional* spaces, organised on a different basis are also required - let's make them. This is not transphobia. This is women's rights.

Today the Police Crime Sentencing and Courts Act comes into effect, criminalising the Gypsy, Roma and Traveler communities through making it illegal to stop outside of "authorised" camps, allowing police to seize and destroy their homes and lock them up.

The policing bill will criminalise Gypsy and Traveller families – there is a better approach

@manc_up @MENnewsdesk Interesting choice of photograph. Giving the message to readers this was a peaceful response to women meeting to talk about women. Why did you not use images which showed the screaming & organised shouting that went on throughout the meeting?

shut down roads for this march, which totally defeats the point of taking up space; of marching in resistance to a state that wants to destroy us. Denying the wider trans community the opportunity to speak, and trying to prohibit us from spreading radical messages of... (21/29)
