I still don’t know anything about her. What’s the problem with her politics?

The System – Derren Brown

I remember Derren Brown doing a TV show on exactly that derrenbrown.co.uk/shows/the-sy...

6. Schedule 3 of the Equality Act allows single-sex services in certain contexts. That is still the law. Yet this letter frames any attempt to apply that law as discrimination. It’s not. It’s statute.

(The above 6 points were taken from another commentator, so I can’t claim 100% credit) 6/6

5. The letter has a glaring hole. It refuses to acknowledge competing rights. Women’s groups, faith-based providers, victims of trauma, even the organisations delivering services, are nowhere to be found. 5/6

4. They say the EHRC should have waited. For what? Clarity had just been handed down by the Supreme Court. Silence at that point would have been negligence. Regulators are there to clarify, not play dead.

3. The EHRC is accused of causing β€œdistress” and β€œharm” by issuing interim guidance. Serious charges, offered without a shred of evidence. No examples, no stakeholder testimony, no data. Just emotion in search of legal weight. 3/6

2. The letter tries to draw a line: trans people with a Gender Recognition Certificate are affected, others are not. That’s not how it works. The Court didn’t create carve-outs. It defined a statutory term. That applies across the Act. 2/6

1. The EHRC hasn’t β€œoverreached” the Supreme Court ruling, nor is it making policy. It is responding to precedent. The judgment binds. The Commission must update its Code to reflect it. This is not ideological. It’s legal obligation. 1/6

Excruciatingly poor letter. Particularly embarrassing given you're a KC and a legislator

I've watched exactly what she said (it's at around 1 hr 21 in the video) and you're distorting her point. NC is talking about whether the ruling removes all benefits of obtaining a GRC from the specific perspective of access to SS spaces, not commenting on people's motivations for transitioning

She was fantastic. Cool, calm, rational. Not deliberately insulting anyone, just stating the facts in a discussion where they were very relevant

Not sure why this is news? There have been pink bluebells down the road from me for as long as I can remember.

Given that all this shit Trump is doing is *exactly* what he said he would do throughout this campaign, the Dems’ idiocy in not moving even slightly towards a common sense approach on some tinder box issues is even more obvious tbh

My daughter’s en route there today to play in a gig tonight. Just told her to expect the city to be full - she said that must be why they’re staying in a hotel out of town. Although then asked me what a trade fair was 🀣

Feeling that it might be indicative of how dulled my senses are by this constant battering that I can only think of Covid before this one. Which is the other shock that I have erased from my memory?

I am a bit emotionally attached to β€œrough as a badger’s arse” as it is the last thing said on our wedding video (guest staggering past announcing his current state). We had to edit it out in the version we gave to our parents
