What is the truth about the dangers supposedly posed by trans women? How many women have suffered violence from transwomen accessing their spaces? I would think none.

It now seems they view equality data collection as inflexible and โ€œbiologicalโ€. I have advised organisations that this can be resolved using the Brexit restatement power.

Lots of stuff here that you won't read in most of the legacy media which seems completely uninterested in the backgrounds, associations and possible motivations of those behind the BBC crisis.

Why was the BBC having its homework marked by a lobbyist who hasn't worked as a journalist for 20 years?

BEWARE. The details may not be 100% accurate (eg list f lawyers), because it's AI and... well.
But IMO, it gives a fairly good overview of what the heck it's all about.

Quote: Ms Hutchison said she hoped more people would "stand up" against the ideology behind the policy, adding: "It's now time for people to raise their head above the parapet and speak out against this."

The existence of trans people is not an "ideology", BBC. It is a reality and one which Parliament has recognized.

(Entirely typical of the BBC that, confronted by a populist right attack, they will show willing by dumping on trans people. Weak with the strong, strong with the weak, as always.)

Cis woman accidentally sent to male prison because she had 'masculine features' A cisgender woman was reportedly wrongfully processed as a man and sent to an all-male prison because she had so-called "masculine features."

At a time wheb those afflicted with 'gender critical ideology' seem to be in meltdown over the effects of what they campaigned for.... a reminder of how judging sex by appearance, endorsed by the UK Supreme Court, can cause issues. 2024 news.

What pisses me off about even this framing - โ€œtrans athletes could be at a disadvantageโ€ - is that I donโ€™t think anyone ever thought otherwise about trans men, whether accurately or not. What makes this a headline to the average Joe is that trans women athletes arenโ€™t โ€œcheatingโ€ but disadvantaged.

Equality and Human Rights Commission faces a devastating challenge for yet again violating its human rights obligations โ€“ TransActual

Equality & Human Rights Commission faces devastating challenge:

See press release & announcement.

Trans Exile Network supports this release and is yet to lodge its GANHRI submissions to strip EHRC of recognised status. 'Crowing' by the EHRC is sorely misjudged.

Iโ€™ll definitely be in court tomorrow, but we probably wonโ€™t be able to live tweet unless the judge has changed their mind. I will take notes tho.

Last time I provided commentary, the Sex Matters goons used it to refine their case, so I wonโ€™t be making any.

First, you need to move the Court of Arbitration for Sport out of the ECHRโ€™s reach. Second, you need to revoke the 2021 Framework on Fairness, Inclusion and Non-Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity and Sex Variations.

This is fake news.
