The new law means period products will be available to access in public buildings including schools and universities across Scotland. It will be the responsibility of local authorities and education providers to ensure the products are available free of charge.

In 2018, the Scottish government announced that students in schools, colleges and universities across the country would be able to access sanitary products for free, through a £5.2 million ($6.3 million) investment.

Nothing is ever actually free.

If the government is providing it, it’s using tax money it has extorted out of you to pay for it.

Why is it the left only knows what a woman is when they promote part of their agenda, such as abortion or free feminine products?

Why not free lingerie? Womens underwear generally costs more than mens. Not fair (stomping foot)!

Wait until they start cost reduction on the “free pads”

In a few years they will feel like they are made of sandpaper.
