Gender agenda?

-

Are girls more likely to be bullied and harrassed by trans pupils or by anatomical­ly-female girls? That’s the safety issue that should be considered, and based on some behaviour I’ve seen and heard about, pupils may actually be safer with trans girls.

stuartxfx Noah would have had accommodat­ion problems on his Ark if the deluge had happened this week. None of this 2x2 nonsense. He would need one male, and one female. So far so good. Followed by a male transition­ing to a female, hard on the heels of a female transition­ing to be a male, added to the bisexual who wanted to be a bit of both, topped off with the one who couldn’t decide and wanted to keep their options open. “We’ll need a bigger Ark, God” said Noah...

old clothes and porridge Why should 99% plus of pupils, far less the teachers, have to put up with this stupid nonsense, far less face prosecutio­n if they disagree or make a comment on the issue ?

Aberdeensh­ire No wonder the country is going down the tubes. The politician­s are more concerned about genderneut­ral bogs to appease a small but vocal minority than actually governing the country.

Mackays Abacus From a distance it just looks like two extreme left wing identity politics groups attacking each other...

steven ohara New rules? This is why Holyrood needs shutting down immediatel­y.

Michael Mckeown It’s one of those topics where if you dare disagree with the morality of the issue according to your own beliefs then people will accuse you of being some sort of backward monster. If your child announced they identified as being another gender and wanted to be treated as one then I’m not sure that any parent would react positively. they can do as they please.

Britishand­inscotland Totally agree that this should not be even considered until they are adults. School is not a place that should have to consider sexual orientatio­n, gender identity or religious beliefs. Education is their business.

Little Goose You know you are living in a psychopath­ic pathocracy when the state forces your daughters to undress in front of men and play sports against men. This is so typical of the state of Scottish law these days. Lawyers make it up as they go along. Don’t waste your money on Scottish law; it is total crap.

Hoditanddo­dit Sounds a bit far fetched, we’re getting into “the dog ate the contract” territory.

Berlin Calling No doubt he had Counsel representi­ng his own interests at the hearing. Therefore if he was so tired then surely they should have requested that Mr Fitchie be allowed time to rest before he gave evidence in case of unintentio­nally perjuring himself? Surely he, a lawyer, realised what he said under cross examinatio­n did not match his written statement? Definitely sounds like a “big boys did it and ran away” kind of reasoning some nine months later.

Little Goose Was he suffering from hay fever as well? What we have is a man who told the truth and let the genie out the bottle. We now have lawyers trying to get the genie back into the bottle. Nothing to see here, move along now!

I know you know Jet lag as a defence?? You couldn’t make it up! How long before Aamer Anwar cottons on to that one?

Lavrenti Zapadni Farcical – and who is paying for this? – oh yes – we are. £9m and counting – eventual result? Damn all.

Deathrowma­rv Politician­s should be held personally accountabl­e for contract disasters.

Disc Less One of the strangest excuses, and headlines?
