To Keir Starmer The highest court in our land has confirmed that the law is as stated by women’s rights groups. Women have toiled, suffered abuse and vilification, and spent a fortune to get to this point. Just to have the law confirmed as what it obviously always was. Trans activists have attacked and hounded feminists, loudly and often violently attempting to prevent us from meeting to discuss our rights, and defacing monuments. These images from yesterday should alarm you as they do us. Years of institutional indulgence have left activists emboldened to show their desire to commit violence against women in broad daylight and in public. Women’s safety is at risk if you do not take strong and immediate action. It is a dangerous moment for the women in this fight. Now we have labour MPs and ministers of your own government, whose job is to apply the rule of law, plotting to undermine this ruling. Will you, our Prime Minister, stamp out this subterfuge? Will you put an end to the misogynistic attempts to destroy everything that belongs to women? Will you finally undo over a decade of bad decisions and guidance stemming from your predecessors and end this war decisively? Anyone seeking to defy the law of the land should leave government. The law has spoken, will you?

Powerful words from Joan Smith Joan Smith at our WRN conference this year. Joan looks back on her experiences as a young reporter during the Yorkshire Ripper investigation. If we are to address violence against women and girls, then attitudes to the most vulnerable women must change. Joan also appears on BBC Woman's Hour today to discuss the crimes of Simon Levy.

1⃣Women rowers told they should stick to having babies and feeding them. 2⃣The first all-female crew to sail around the world labelled ‘a tin full of tarts’. 3⃣The female snooker player described as a ‘bigot; because she refused to play a man. 4⃣The academic writing scientific papers explaining why male biology is an advantage in female sport - blocked by publishers and labelled ‘transphobic’. Despite the barriers our pioneering sports panel have won through - and came to tell the inaugural WRN conference how they succeeded, against all the odds. Here’s a snippet from the trail-blazing yachtswoman Tracy Edwards. To watch the full panel discussion head to: 👇

Male footballer bites an opponent - 10 Match Ban Female footballer calls a man a man - 10 Match Ban The case of a THIRD female footballer punished for stating that a man is indeed a man has yet again highlighted the gross misogyny at the heart of the The FA. In the latest case, a female player reportedly received a 10-match ban for shouting ‘go on big man’ at the male footballer Blair Hamilton. Hamilton is the 6-foot tall male who has played on the England women’s university team, Hastings United, and Saltdean Women, and was also picked as substitute goalie for Sutton United Women’s team by their male manager Lucy Clark. This third case of the FA punishing a female player for stating the truth has emerged in an interview with Hamilton on the 'Football versus Homophobia' podcast, which was broadcast in March 2024. Hamilton describes a ‘red mist’ descending when he was called a man, which led to him making a formal complaint to the FA. The FA duly obliged by hauling the unknown female player through its disciplinary process and banning her from her sport, says Hamilton. This is the same punishment meted out to former Liverpool striker Luis Suarez for biting an opponent in 2013. The latest case of female players being punished for stating the obvious follows the cases of two teenage girls, who were brought before the FA’s National Serious Case Panels and handed out match bans for saying what they were seeing – men on the pitch. Despite FA charges, outcomes, and fines being published on a monthly basis, these cases don’t appear on the FA website. Why is that? How many other players, fans or clubs have been sanctioned for calling out men playing in the women’s game? What is being hidden from us? The FA is discriminating against women and girls by allowing males into the female game. Then further discriminating by handing out excessive punishments when this unfairness (and the truth) is called out. It's a means to silence women and prohibit any further challenge. We call on the FA and Lisa Nandy MP, the Secretary of State for Sport to make football fair for females. No males in the female game.

While we enjoyed the discussion on Bulletin Politics Live today, this contribution by Samantha Niblett MP MP raised our collective eyebrows. ❓Who are all these 'anti-trans rights' organisations she refers to? ❓Surely she isn't framing women's and girls' rights in this way? ❓Would she like to name them? ❓And if not, why not?

"It was a different time". Well done Women’s Rights Network- Greater Manchester's Cath Dyson 👏 for asking the question of former Australian PM Julia Gillard. Not a hint of regret from Gillard in her answer, but a clear admission that she didn't foresee any of the consequences of her horrendous actions in erasing women's and girls' rights. No one raised this apparently. Gosh, how on earth could she have possibly then be expected to anticipate the outcome? (sarcasm) Sall Grover

Parkrun CEO Russ Jefferys broke cover on BBC Radio 5 Live to defend the removal of results listings from the parkrun UK website. ‘The criticism we faced from the Women’s Rights Network and others is down to a total misunderstanding of what parkrun is. It is not a race. It is not a competitive event,’ he told the nation. We weren’t invited to give our side so here it is…

The repercussions for women when they speak up about men in their private spaces can be terrifying. No wonder many women stay silent out of fear. Here's Bethany of the Darlington Nursing Union telling us about how they were labelled 'troublemakers', were punished, intimidated and in fear of losing their jobs. Link to full interview here:

Parkrun got it so very wrong says ultra-runner Sophie Power. It’s one of the best health initiatives ever to come out of this country but people like to compare their scores with other people of their own age and sex - ie male and female. Sophie describes her parkrun experiences during pregnancy, with young children and as a super-fit ultra-runner - truly inclusive. Listen to the full interview on our YouTube channel.

Tonight a woman steps into the ring for the Women’s Welterweight boxing final to decide the Gold medal. She fights a boxer with ‘Male Karyotype’, XY chromosomes, a male. Tomorrow another woman fights a male in the Women’s Featherweight final. IOC MEDIA has sanctioned male violence against women in the name of sport. Women’s Rights Network stands with all the women failed by the IOC policy that puts inclusion of males above the safety of women. #SaveWomensSport #XX

An excellent round-up of the controversy over males in female sport on BBC Woman's Hour this morning. Sports Editor Dan Roan explained the issues with clarity and detail ahead of the introduction, next week, of mandatory female sex-verification by World Athletics And you could have knocked us down with a feather when Dan clearly stated that the top three medallists in the 800m women’s race at the Rio Olympics were males with Differences of Sexual Development. The first time the BBC has stated this? We’re sure Melissa Bishop, Joanna Jozwik and Lynsey Sharp, the rightful Gold, Silver and Bronze medal winners, are mightily comforted by the fact that BBC is at last recognising that they were cheated out of their medals. Ultimately, reported Dan, the test is needed to ensure the integrity of female sports by keeping anyone with male physiological advantages out of the female category. The boxing farce at Paris 2024, was acknowledged as a turning point and the ‘direction of travel’ is now towards sex verification in all sports. IOC MEDIA we’re waiting …

Good to see this discussion of the EHRC Code on BBC Politics live today. We particularly enjoyed this excellent contribution by Rosa Prince. ✔️A reasonably neutral and interested presenter Vicki Young ✔️A balance of panel members ✔️Good to hear mainstream opinion presented ❌But ... still presented as a 'trans' issue - rather than women's rights.
