    Solidarity with Michael Ben-Gad, Professor of Economics at City University. Students are demanding his sacking simply because he is an Israeli Jew who has done (mandatory) military service. The antisemitic harassment he is being subjected to is horrifying. I hesitate to amplify

    It's interesting that the @UKLabour Shadow minister for Women talks about the "parenthood pay gap". It's an example of how de-sexing the language leads to inaccuracy. There is a motherhood pay gap. Fatherhood has actually been linked to a pay premium.

    Labour will lift women up, not hold them back. Because we are the party of equality. #IWD2022

    Male violence against women and girls is not a "both sides" issue. There are simply no examples of feminists issuing these kinds of violent threats. Every time women organise to discuss our rights we are faced with abuse. It shouldn't be hard to condemn that unequivocally.

    Replying to @hogotheforsaken @shularises and 2 others
    Advocating violence against others is wrong & this is no exception. But as you’ll be aware violent language and actions are not unique to one side on this issue. That doesn’t justify the above in anyway, but it does require we acknowledge the general toxicity & step back from it

    A school has removed the name of a female writer because she expressed her opinion about women's rights. What message does this send to girls at the school? Or to anyone who values critical thinking? #IStandWithJKR

    1/ Thanks to @BBCr4today for having me on to discuss data collection on sex and why it matters. This follows the extraordinary claim by Scotland's Chief Statistician, Roger Halliday, that sex should typically not be asked unless there is a medical reason.

    Please read Almut Gadow's crowdfunder statement. It is jaw-dropping. She is bringing a case against the Open University for unfair dismissal. She was dismissed for questioning gender ideology. The details are horrifying. crowdjustice.com/case/almut-gad…

    Why are so many politicians keen on gender self-id when the polling shows overwhelming public opposition? Opposition to self-id is the majority view among supporters of all parties. It feels like politicians are in a strange bubble on this. docs.cdn.yougov.com/plh4depnh8/Tim…

    Did you realise that one in every 67 Muslims is transgender? Superb piece on the @ONS 2021 Census from Michael Biggs @SociologyOxford

    Why does the census say there are more trans people in Newham than Brighton?

    This is what happens when a journalist who has done her homework and understands the issues asks the chair of #Stonewall some gentle, probing questions. He simply can't answer any of them. A real sign of progress for Stonewall to face this informed public scrutiny.
