A trans person is not trans until the equipment they were born with has been changed. A wrenching decision for sure, that ADULTS should only undertake after much thought. A trans-in-process is a better term for those persons who maintain their original equipment, while taking hormones to change body chemistry. The debate about trans persons is fraught with danger; fortunately no right to not be offended exists. Where there is no intent to give offence, there is no foul.

Where was the counsel to whom Sturgeon as leader could consult, if she was intent of stepping down, about the best time in the interest of the party?

- prior leadership… closed avenue

- Chief Executive… hmmm

- leadership group/ management board… a reminder of the historians’ observation that dominance invariably eliminates the nurturing of opposition and alternative thought.

On the bright side, the prospect of Forbes with Murrell should provide more copy for you.

Should a party strategist have a pause button, now is the time to press, please.
