This letter from Tony Vaughan KC, the MP for Folkestone, is the clearest articulation I’ve seen on the flaws of the interim update from the EHRC. The section titled ‘Legal Incoherence’ hits the nail on the head.

And here we go - as expected, they're going after kids now. This is exactly the sort of thing I warned about when the Supreme Court judgment was released.

🏳️‍⚧️ We're thinking of our trans and non-binary members and learners today. 🫂 The UK Supreme Court ruling is a blow but it does not affect our humanity. ✊🏻 Trans women are women; trans men are men and nonbinary identities are valid. #LGBwiththeT

Updating details for SQA marking. It’s 2025 and they only offer male/female and gendered titles, no Mx. So you may now address me as Captain Currie, I’m going to retrain as a pirate #queer #LGBTQIA

Māori members of New Zealand’s parliament disrupted the passage of a bill that would reinterpret the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, which uplifts Indigenous peoples. The MPs performed a haka—a traditional Māori dance and chant—causing the session to be suspended.
