Mark was copied into correspondence from May onwards about this issue, so it is a very fair question to ask why this change was made at this point given the issues were self-evident 6 months ago.

The party has to hold lawful elections & Constitution Art. 2.7 which members voted to adopt, says that the EA holds sway. The quota in 2.5 was unlawful & has been corrected. But in trying to appease the aggrieved, they have over-provided for the groups covered by 2.6c & d; they’re still not happy.

You sound like a bigot.

“Dress however you please. Call yourself whatever you like. Sleep with any consenting adult who'll have you. Live your best life in peace and security. But to force women out of their jobs for stating that sex is real?" What's wrong with saying that?

That often happens at lower courts and then the Supreme Court has to look carefully at all the written briefs that come in. I was astonished that Stonewall did not submit an intervention, especially as individuals can’t submit personal testimony, just points of law.

Don't be silly - of course it doesn't 'rewrite' the law. It interprets EA2010 as it was intended. People were (deliberately or misguidedly) misinterpreting the law, but feminists have been saying for many years this was wrong

I saw the same at John Lewis in Oxford; I haven’t been back to shop there since. (They also had lockable cubicle doors in the “Men’s Fitting Rooms” and merely curtains for the anyone’s Fitting Rooms.”)

Biological men in women's sports have taken nearly 2,000 gold medals from women, according to a study - ZENIT - English A recent report from Concerned Women for America (CWA), a public policy organization focused on protecting women’s rights, has quantified the toll: nearly 2,000 medals originally designated for female...

Over 10,000 amateur and professional events have seen biological males claim victories in female categories, resulting in more than $493,000 in prize money diverted from women.

It was given in the evidence.

No; only when the comments was so ludicrous that it cried out for my attention. You’re welcome.

Where’s my garlic 🧄 when I need it? 3/3.

Grassroots campaigners like WWWW have frequently trounced her & Scottish Ministers at all levels of the court system, as well as in Employment Tribunals; and yet her fellow-undead governing classes refuse to submit to the traditional silver bullet/stake through (what passes for) the heart… 2/3

Outstanding. JKR compares Sturgeon to a vampire. It’s true she’s presided over a system which has sucked the lifeblood out of mainstream women’s advocacy bodies so that Scotswomen have had to build anew to lobby for their concerns, which were ignored by her government. 1/2

What has been clarified and removed is the incorrect “Stonewall Lore” which, over time, had misinterpreted the Act and removed women’s protections. 2/2

You can stand for transmen, whose rights (if pregnant) have been safeguarded by this judgment, & which Scottish Ministers would happily have abandoned. And the judgment is clear that the protected characteristics of transwomen & transmen remain exactly as written into the Equality Act; 1/2

Nobody is “interviewed by the Supreme Court;” the Court doesn’t hear individual experiences. Groups can submit files on points of law, which is what the lesbian groups did, in intervening to support For Women Scotland. Stonewall or Mermaids could have done so to support Scottish Ministers: but no.

“undergone a process of medical masculinisation which gives rise to a legitimate objection” may also be excluded from female spaces; it is referred to in the Supreme Court judgment, paragraph 53, 54. 2/2

That’s not so. A woman may reasonably object to any male trying to enter a females’ single-sex space. And a transman who has 1/2

Who else would these anti-women activists choose who would be better qualified than someone with 30 years experience and a PhD in equality law?

It is not “transphobic” to expect your employer to respect & protect your right to appropriate single-sex facilities at work: Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regs. 1992, regs 23 & 24. Women have rights too!

The wrongdoing was on the part of Dr Upton & the HR of NHS Fife, who should have protected and respected the women’s spaces. Upton had spaces in the Doctors’ Mess to use.

I know!

How dare a woman expect her employers to follow the law and provide single sex facilities when she is bleeding through and needing to clean up the blood.

How dare she object to a semi naked man watching?

Speaking the truth and fighting for women’s sex-based rights is not “bigotry.” Her protected beliefs have been judged “Worthy Of Respect In A Democratic Society.” Dr Upton’s actions, on the other hand, in breaching the women’s single-sex spaces, are unlawful & unlikely to be WORIADS!

Yes, we have seen from the testimony that Nurse Peggie, with 30 years’ unblemished service, didn’t want to be bullied by a petulant young Dr. who shd have used the changing room in the Doctors’ Mess. Upton had "previous difficulties" with another colleague & kept a log of “difficult interactions.”

She did not go into her changing room on the first two occasions when she found Dr Upton using it, so she did not have unfettered access to the cubicles. Why was DU there at all, when Doctors have their own space?

And why did no one in NHS Fife have the duty or gumption to ensure that the nurses’ legal rights to single-sex changing rooms were protected and respected? 2/2
