4/ The EHRC is exploiting this ambiguity to intimidate service providers. It is the intimidation that is unlawful and goes against human rights standards of interference with rights and freedoms being prescribed by law.

2/ As one of the more contrarian trans lawyers, I have long explained that the EHRC’s interim guidance and the Code can be given a generous reading, and the High Court in London agreed re the interim guidance. The problem is that the EHRC sees that as a carte blanche to mislead and to gaslight.

1/🧵 A serious analysis. This is disingenuous. We all know there are two legal meanings of the EHRC Code: a generous one and a fair one. The generous legal meaning is that it suggests that trans-exclusionary provision is “legally” safer. The fair one is that it requires trans-exclusionary provision.

"Transgender rights activists are spreading misinformation about guidance that protects single-sex spaces by claiming it erodes trans people’s rights, the equalities regulator has said." [Times page 2]

Trans activists ‘wrong over single-sex code’
Geraldine Scott - Assistant Political Editor
Transgender rights activists are spreading misinformation about guidance that protects single-sex spaces by claiming it erodes trans people’s rights, the equalities regulator has said.

Mary-Ann Stephenson, chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), said criticism of its updated code of practice had made the “real alarm” felt by trans people worse by wrongly suggesting they had lost protections or would face sex checks.

Stephenson said women had also been affected by not having access to single-sex spaces. She said: “Women who believe that their right to privacy, dignity or safety have not been properly protected deserve to have those concerns taken seriously too.”

Last week the Liberal Democrats passed a conference motion branding the code discriminatory and “unworkable”.

At Labour’s conference Joanne Thomas, the general secretary of the Usdaw union and chairwoman of Labour Unions, said the law and the EHRC code would hurt trans and nonbinary people and argued that rights had been rolled back.

Stephenson said the code did not create new law or abolish protections for transgender people.

She said: “Recognising women’s need for access to single-sex services doesn’t require us to dismiss the rights of trans people. And recognising the vulnerability of trans people doesn’t require us to dismiss women’s concerns.”

The EHRC’s code of practice came into force in August, 16 months after the Supreme Court ruled that sex in relation to the Equality Act must be defined biologically. This means single-sex lavatories, changing rooms, hospital wards and refuges must be used based on a person’s birth sex, not the gender with which they identify.

The Good Law Project, which is backing a legal challenge against the code, accused the EHRC of producing “discriminatory” and “unworkable” guidance and said service providers which followed it would be “helping to strip trans pe…

It’s a shame that this will likely never be read by a member of this government or any journalist for a big uk news channel/newspaper. However, every British cis person who claims to care about trans people should read this and cry that they live in a country that does this to marginalised families

The Supreme Court has responded to the complaint we have raised alongside @translucent.org.uk and @transparentaction.bsky.social and, as expected, they have failed to address the concerns we have raised...

"Dear Trans Advocacy & Complaints Collective, Transparent Action, and
TransLucent
Thank you for your complaint about the Court's new exhibition. I understand
your concern to be that the presentation of For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish
Ministers appears to be weighted towards the perspective of those who
campaigned for and celebrated the outcome, while giving insufficient
recognition to those who opposed it. You have confirmed that you are not
challenging the judgment itself or the inclusion of the case in the exhibition.
As Head of External Affairs and Communications, with responsibility for the
exhibition, I have been asked to respond to the matters you have raised. It may
be helpful first to explain the exhibition's purpose and approach.
The Law and Us features 70 appeals heard by the Supreme Court, the Judicial
Committee of the Privy Council and the Appellate Committee of the House of
Lords, the predecessor to the Supreme Court. The cases cover a wide range of
legal issues and were selected to illustrate both the breadth of the Court's work
and the ways in which the law affects people's lives. The exhibition also explains
the creation of the Court, the development of law in the UK and the role of the
Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.
For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers is one of the 70 featured appeals.
As with the other case studies, it explains the background to the dispute, the"

"legal questions considered, the Justices' decision and a subsequent reflection
from a Justice or another person connected with the law. Images relating to the
appeal or its wider context were selected to help visitors understand the issues.
...You suggest that the headline, "When the law says 'woman', what does it mean?"
could imply that the Court went further than the judgment itself. The headline
refers expressly to the meaning of terms used in law. The question before the
Court concerned the meaning of "woman" and "sex" in a specific piece of
legislation. This is made clear in the case study under the paragraph heading
"The heart of the case". The display does not suggest that the Court provided a
general definition outside of the legislation it was considering.
Regarding your concerns about the images used - which you say "reflects the
perspective of those who celebrated the judgment" while largely ignoring those who
did not - the display features an image of the Scottish Government alongside that
of For Women Scotland, thus representing both parties in the appeal. This is
consistent with the approach taken across the exhibition. Their purpose is to
illustrate the case and its context, rather than to represent every individual or
organisation with an interest in the wider debate. The inclusion of any image
does not signify the Court's endorsement of any person or organisation
depicted. We did not visually represent the interveners; however, details of them
as well as the judgment, are available on the Court's website, along with the
recordings of the hearing and written_legalarguments.
Lady Rose's contribution is a personal reflection on the atmosphere in
Courtroom 1 when the judgment was handed down. It does not endorse a
particular position or present the outcome as a cause for celebration. The
exhibition also states that, when handing down the judgment, the Court
emphasised that trans people remain protected from discrimination under the
Equality Act 2010.."

"private room, and seats were not allocated according to the position an
individual supported in either case.
I have carefully considered the matters you have raised, examining the wording,
images, personal reflection and contextual material in the exhibition. I am
satisfied that the display accurately explains the issue before the Court, the
judgment and its legal context, and is consistent with the approach taken across
the exhibition. I am also satisfied that the arrangements for members of the
public who attended the judgment hand-down were professional, impartial and
transparent.
If you are dissatisfied with the handling or outcome of your complaint, you may
request a review within 14 days in accordance with the Administrative
Complaints Policy, details of which are available on the Court's website.
Yours sincerely
Bom Mema
Mr John McManus
Head of External Affairs & Communications
