Quotes

  • All of the evidence tells us that the cause of violence against women and girls is predatory and abusive men, not trans people. We must not conflate the two. There is no evidence that predatory and abusive men have ever had to pretend to be anything else to carry out abusive and predatory behaviour.
  • I would also like to take this opportunity to restate that this support for trans rights does not in any way conflict with our work and commitment to protect women from discrimination and advance women’s rights and equality.
  • I think I listened to all the arguments when taking forward the Gender Recognition Reform Bill.It was clearly a polarising debate, but fundamentally at the heart of it is making the lives of trans people just that bit better.
  • I have never said any of the concerns are not truly held.I met with a number of women’s organisations and heard their concerns, but I don’t think there is any evidence to show trying to make the lives of trans people that bit better was going to impact on women and girls.The safety issues come from predatory men.
