The @rcn.org.uk fought to keep evidence that this guy is a member and had provided training on "Equality" out of the court documents in the employment tribunal. Well you would wouldn't you?

The Supreme Court ruling was about the meaning of the words "sex" "man" and "woman" in the Equality Act 2010 being interpreted by reference to biological sex at birth. The main issue here ( this *was* a thread about women's breast cancer) is that men can't accept everything isn't all about them.
