Communist Party Candidates in Edinburgh condemn the council over women's rights:
"We need to urgently implement the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of sex in the Equality Act 2010. [@edinburgh_cc](https://bird.makeup/users/edinburgh_cc ) must fully uphold women’s rights and protections under the Act, including the right to single-sex services."

In a week that a former MP was murdered, would-be terrorist group, Bash Back, posts a "how to" guide for attacking MPs like Wes Streeting.
Surely @npub10jr…l3s4 @npub1wcm…zgrp need to crack down? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/11/militant-trans-group-wes-streeting/

The indomitable @npub1dwd…4sag on Woman's Hour talking about Sturgeon, FWS, and the prison ruling.
Also the threats she and others endured for legitimate views and the vindication of our views.

“The new guidance makes it clear that the male doctor should never have been in the female changing room and it was absurd and obscene that NHS Fife invested so much time and money defending the indefensible.”

The Scottish Gov have updated the definition of "women" in GRPBA.
This may be the most expensive paragraph in Scottish legal history.

Pleased to see this action by @npub1jyd…7w9x has a date for Tribunal. @npub1j6d…4f3k behaved appallingly. The film was only - finally - shown at Edinburgh University after unprecedented levels of security were put in place.

Fantastic news! Edinburgh Women’s Aid has explicitly stated it will prohibit trans women or males who identify as NB from attending its group support services or refuges even if they hold a gender recognition certificate & will not hire them as staff.
