I was in Union Square with my parents and my mum baffled me saying we should take the wacky stairs rather than the escalator. They are wacky because you “waak” up them 🙄 https://t.co/czP80a8DGy — PolitiTweet.org

This is the most important issue for everyone, whatever country they live in. I think you'll find an awful lot of people do care, a lot, about climate change. — PolitiTweet.org

@jilltrevail @meg_montague I’m sorry about that, that really shouldn’t happen - if you want to dm me your email address I’ll check out how we’ve missed your mails. — PolitiTweet.org

@jilltrevail @meg_montague I’m sorry, I don’t really know what this means, but if you’d like a meeting please send an email to [email protected] and we’ll see what we can do to arrange :) — PolitiTweet.org

And also for us all, in big and small decisions, to think about the climate impact of those decisions. — PolitiTweet.org

Attended the COP climate protest rally in #Aberdeen today. It was well organised and well attended. I made the case for protections to be put in place as we transition. https://t.co/7RJzS54qHe — PolitiTweet.org

The Evening Express have now published an apology: “While there will always be a place in the media for voices that express challenging views, on this occasion Mr Gilfeather crossed a line. The column should never have been published in that form.” https://t.co/BVJOp7nduq — PolitiTweet.org

@PonderingPanda8 I don't have any information on the numbers of those whose drinks are spiked at parties where weed is being smoked, but yes, I think we should change the classification of cannabis. In fact, I'd legalise it. If alcohol is legal, there's no reason for cannabis to be illegal. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

This is not simply poor judgement. The piece is abhorrent. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

This misogynistic victim blaming is unacceptable. I have asked for urgent action to be taken, including an apology from Mr Gilfeather and training for the editor who allowed this piece to be published. I do not think Mr Gilfeather is fit to continue in his role as columnist. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

The Evening Express recently published a column by Frank Gilfeather. The column states that "We must not understate the seriousness of drink spiking and the results of it, but surely it is the responsibility of the individual to keep themselves safe." https://t.co/hBKANcIrGa — PolitiTweet.org

@SophiaPangloss @PrideInSurrey @theSNP I agree with their protest and I’m glad they are protesting, but I am taking no credit for being part of it. I stopped for a chat on my way past heading to work and we took a couple of photos. — PolitiTweet.org

@ForwomenScot Nope. Talking about rights, fighting for rights, is what more people should do. I don’t think fighting for the continuation of conversion therapy is compatible with that. https://t.co/Hc1JDmlww3 — PolitiTweet.org

@PrideInSurrey Also 100% agree with their right to protest there and understand completely why they are. Wishing all those protesting and standing up for human rights today a safe and productive afternoon. — PolitiTweet.org

Kirsty Blackman @KirstySNP

@PrideInSurrey Brilliant to meet you this morning. You are doing great work. To be clear to those detractors - I wasn't protesting, these lovely people were. I was just walking past QEII on my way to work and totally agree with the placards @PrideInSurrey have. Trans rights are human rights 🏳️‍⚧️ — PolitiTweet.org

@WhatTheTrans So, so lovely to meet you. Thanks for all you do - this account alone is so helpful. I'll be sure to catch up on your podcast too 😀 — PolitiTweet.org
