Lee - this is not on point but you are an ally and I dont understand why no one is talking the Good Law Project having completely destroyed trans womens rights in the workplace!? This has been an absolute disaster and no one is holding anyone to account on it!?!? 😞 ❤️ 💙

Allison Bailey v Stonewall is going to the Supreme Court. It will be fascinating to see whether @stonewalluk.bsky.social takes the opportunity to make sure that trans voices are heard in our apex court.

I'm very excited to be part of this. (If also slightly terrified to be Chair of such an alarmingly august committee.)

In the latest update to the Equal Treatment Bench Book, chapter 12, ¶48 is a breath of fresh air: '"Assigned at birth" is used by trans people (and others) instead of biological sex, but is not widely understood, and it is therefore to be avoided by judges.'

Fascinating eye-witness account of Lynsay Watson/Alex Horwood's latest antics and his arrest last Thursday. Since he's been both camera-shy and menacing online towards many of those he disagrees with, it's also good to have an up-to-date photo of him. www.thehelenjoyce.com/p/lynsay-wat...

The answer was no. No-one wanted to try to explain to me why men getting infants to suck on their nipples might (even sometimes) be ok. On balance I suppose I find that faintly reassuring, in a rather bleak way.

So depressing to see a Labour MP push misinformation like this. The judgment @kateosbornemp.bsky.social refers to is here: goodlawproject.org/wp-content/u.... Will she say which paragraph/s say “the EHRC’s draft code of practice got the law wrong”? No. Because none do. bsky.app/profile/kate...

Stonewall used to insist that refusing to accept someone's "trans" identity — refusing to pretend to believe that they are the opposite sex from their real sex — was "transphobic". Stonewall's definition of "transphobia" has been written into countless workplace policies.

An important thread from Helen Joyce over on Twitter. The vigilante attack was vicious and rightly punished. But if the reporting is correct, one of the perpetrators may have been the victim of a serious sex crime, too. We shouldn't overlook that. x.com/HJoyceGender...

Utterly absurd, and wrong, that this post is marked by @bsky.app as "intolerance". In reality it consists of links to serious legal analysis, from someone whose opinion you might agree or disagree with.

"Will need the whole world to recognise and relate to her or to him in the reassigned gender; and will want to keep to an absolute minimum any unwanted disclosure..." Lady Hale demonstrates the carefully-fostered delusion under which so many senior judges have operated in these cases.

This gives me far too much credit. It was Maya Forstater who first persuaded me that there had to be a respectable argument that the GRA didn't stick its spanner into the works of the EqA; and @michaelpforan.bsky.social who did the detailed doctrinal work of putting that argument together.

This is fascinating to see. I used to be of the "just read the words of s.9(1)" persuasion, too. I thought the consequences were repulsive, but I couldn't see a way around them.

One of the things that's interesting about this is that it is much more draconian than most social media policies should be. That's because "necessary... for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary" is one of the express justifications for interference with article 10.
