I can't beleive there are still people
trying to spin the Supreme Court
ruling almost a year on. It is perfectly
clear, it was a unanimous decision and
not liking it doesn't change the law.

EHRC have caused harm. In my opinion
and the opinion of many others, they
are biased against trans people and
have consistently ignored plees of
trans organisations to have meaningful
discussions with them.
The UK is fast becoming a place where
it is unsafe ti be trans and the
government will eventually have to
backtrack if they are to stay in tune
with international law and guidance

The Good Law Project need to rethink
their name because they haven't got a
clue.

It's very simple. The law should be
default exclusive and any and all
organisations and institutions which
wish to be inclusive should have a
simple, straightforward way to
register. That way we maintain the
protections of single sex spaces while
giving the opportunity for any and all
groups who agree with the ideology of
gender identity to include.
The mistake we made was to default
include. We have to respect
organisations rights to be inclusive,
but we also have to maintain the legal
status of sex segregation as default,
so that women are protected in law.

Paul Halfpenny — perhaps we
could divide society up ad well so
that males and females don’t have
to mix as well. I’d be happy with
that.

Lawful but still a wilful
misinterpretation and weaponisation of
the SCUK ruling.
It’s the ‘must exclude’ rather than ‘may
exclude’ that is the problem, especially
without the need to provide ‘good
reason’ as the EA requires, and the
reasonable alternative the act also
requires. Simply stating “use the
facilities as per one’s birth gender” is
clearly discriminatory under the EA.
The recent ruling, you refer to, is
inconsistent and self contradictory.
The EHRC is now a misnomer, and is
being used to exclude people based
purely on their aesthetic. It is gender
nonconforming cis women who are
bearing the brunt of the hate and
abuse meted out by the bigots pushing
this exclusionary agenda the EHRC has
been persuaded into supporting.
When I say persuaded, I mean gleefully
leapt upon by previous trans hating
leadership.
In the last 8 years, since coming out as
trans female have experienced
overwhelming support in female only
spaces from cis women. I have had
perhaps 3 or 4 instances of objections
and each time is was supported by all
the cis women present.
Since the SCUK ruling and the EHRC
‘guidance’ I have seen over a dozen
instances of women with a masculine
or androgynous appearance be
harassed and abused, and excluded
while the abusers looked to me for
support not realising I am transgender.
You are an utter embarrassment to the
terms ‘equality’ and ‘human rights’.
