I'd like to see Michelle Mone locked up, even though I don't generally support jail for non-violent women convicts.
No better than a wartime spiv.
"I lied to protect my family...".
Erm, that only works w/ personal/ family matters.
This is public contract paid by public money

Embarrassing watching #LastLeg.
The level of ignorance in saying 'no Minister' having actually stated Mims Davies has been appointed as...Minister.
Yet again, programme fronted by 3 middle class *men* defending 'gender neutral toilets' - advocating the sex crime of voyeurism

Just a thought, #LastLeg, you can't really pose as right-on defenders of vulnerable people and simultaneously shit on simple measures that protect women & girls (including daughters of middle class men) @adamhillscomedy

Bizarre. First one I've had in 5 years here.
I'm not in it (good). It happened to fall open at Duffield - Rosie's not in it nor is Damian Collins. Why would MPs publicise home address.

If you think the phrase “women’s boundaries matter” is a bigoted dog-whistle you may be suffering from misogyny. Symptoms include failure to respect boundaries and a belief that women asserting their boundaries is motivated by hatred rather than privacy, dignity, and consent.

I planned to do a long 🧵on the government's cancellation of HS2. I've long held the view that it's not primarily for rapid travel between cities, although that's an important side benefit.
It's primarily about removing intercity/regional services from West & East Coast

...you drive or cycle or car-share. If you know there's a train strike Saturday you don't catch the train on Thursday for your two night hotel space. You spend your rest day at a localish visitor attraction rather than into the big city for shopping/show.

When people think they can rely on a fast frequent affordable public transport service, they will become habitual and/or spontaneous users.

Imagine being the sort of person who imagines a stranger has suffered trauma & sneers at them because of.
And advises them to get help.
And fails to grasp that perhaps the greatest help is being able to feel secure.
And not knowing that random stranger may merely...

As it happens, she has probably never overnighted in a hospital, and was probably still in nappies the last time I did, so this isn't about either of us currently, but her cruel desire to make women, including very elderly & teenagers be in a bed next to or opposite a man, who...

...be masturbating or, at the very least, be oblivious to the discomfort, or fear, of the women he has imposed himself onto. A man forcing himself onto a woman's ward is by definition a predator, regardless of what else he does or says.
