The one that found Sandi Peggie likely committed hate crimes against Dr Upton? And that NHS Fife needed to act a smidge faster to resolve the issue? And that Maya Forstater wasn't capable of providing evidence on this matter? That one?

And I hope they will respond that Peggie was found to have harassed her colleague.

And how disgraceful it is that several politicians chose to defend a racist, transphobic aggressor over the actual victim.

Looking at the papers and broadcast media today having read the press summary of the Sandie Peggie judgment is wild. They either haven't read it or are lying about it. And then people wring their hands about trust in institutions or bemoan people resorting to social media for news.

The very sharp disjuncture between reading the executive summary of the EHRC Labour report; then reading the actual text of the Labour report, and then reading what the press were telling the public was in the EHRC Labour report. Then noting the chasm between the allegations, and what was found.

when you go this far to avoid saying that she lost and acknoledge that she was a harasser are you not. lying by omission?

Sandie Peggie: Tribunal rules that employers do not have to exclude trans people | Good Law Project One of the first cases that follows the Supreme Court’s decision on the definition of sex under the Equality Act has found that the court didn’t decide which changing room a trans person should use.

Not that you'd know it from the media coverage, which is almost entirely "Partial victory as Peggie wins on some procedural matters"

Equalities chief claims Sandie Peggie has 'damaged perception' of Scots nurses Despite the nurse's home and workplace being inundated with cards and messages of support, one critic says a handful of questionable comments risk causing harm to the profession

Given the wide variety of abject bigotry and vileness she spouted, the terfs are really telling on themselves with that “We are all Sandie Peggie” sign

Few people outside of politics have shown themselves to be as loathesome and hateful as Sandie Peggie. Absolute monster. I wouldn't want her anywhere near vulnerable people. She is a danger.

Sandie Peggie. Hard to explain the whole thing in a tweet but basically claimed that a trans woman being in her vicinity was "harassment" when in reality she's just a nasty little bigot. She's claiming victory in the case but was actually found to be guilty of harassment herself.

Asked repeatedly about Donald Trump calling Sadiq Khan "disgusting" and suggesting that he was only elected because of immigrants, Keir Starmer's spokesman says only that the PM has a "strong relationship" with the President which has "yielded positive results for this country"

Thanks Hadley, that’s really useful.

Of all the things in London you might get agitated about - lack of affordable housing, public access to green space - and this complete non entity is getting angry about bakery genitalia.

ULEZ might actually be the single best policy I've seen not just successfully implemented but aggressively pushed by a British politician in like, the last 10 or 15 years or so. Which is very depressing.

all of the shit about how if you allow people to transition kids are going to be peeing in litter boxes was just the mirror image of the reality: as soon as you enshrine immutable gender difference in law you're going to have legally required Lady Meals For Her

My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:

The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.

Lol. She's just on the payroll 🤣 pretend wife for a fraud prime minister

You know, infuriating and a shameful betrayal though the BBC and other media's misreporting of the Sandie Peggie judgment is, it also doesn't really matter.

What matters is the judgment which lawyers will read, use to advise their clients, and inclusion will be the winner.
