1/🧵 I know this long time ago but didn’t speak up. Trade unions are regulated by the Certification Officer, Stephen Hardy (also a part time judge). He somehow took the view that the Supreme Court decision in Scottish Ministers affected the interpretation of UNISON’s own constitution.

The biggest difficulty for trans rights – the general public seems to believe the new guidance makes it possible to exclude eg trans women from women's services in some circumstances. No. This was the previous position. The current guidance requires their exclusion, always, regardless of context.

Climate breakdown is clearly increasing fire hazards to ecosystems, and that'll continue to get worse. But the point is that, right now, in Ireland healthy forests don't burn. Even as things worsen, they'll continue to be far less vulnerable to fire than when wrecked. And MUCH better for nature...

In the 90s when they started losing the climate debate, big oil switched to talking about it as a hypothetical problem generations down the line. There are many grim things about this timeline but that chunks of the world are literally on fire and this tactic still mostly works is morbid as hell.

"It's just sports," "It will only affect a few people," & "It'll also be used against cis women" are, IMHO, all equally not-great takes on today's SCOTUS ruling, just different angles. The Supreme Court ruled it's okay to discriminate against a certain class of people. Full stop. That is a horror.

3.2 In my discussions with Ms Maris, I sought to explore whether she saw any
distinction between holding and expressing ‘personal’ views on the one hand and
expressing the views of the Rector on the other. Ms Maris does not see a
distinction. In one discussion, she told me that her approach is that she can
express personal views in her capacity as Rector. However, in a separate
discussion, Ms Maris also told me that there are views which it would not be
appropriate to articulate as Rector. She told me, expressly, that it would be
inappropriate, indeed offensive, to use the Rector’s position to give voice to anti-
Zionist views.
