By locking out trans people, ignoring its Human Rights Act obligations, ignoring what Parliament was told the GRA was for, relying on a biased academic researcher, its ascientific 'biology' and hubristic attitude to lesbians, the Supreme Court caused incalculable harm to trust in the rule of law.

While the EHRC claims to be interpreting the Equality Act 2010 in line with recent Supreme Court precedent, its approach raises serious legal concerns under other legislation. gender-matters.org/law/legal-br...

The EHRC’s draft Code of Practice doesn’t just threaten trans rights, it may breach UK law and human rights protections. From the Equality Act 2006 to the ECHR, we break down how this guidance could lead to legal violations and institutional discrimination.

I will publish a brief “response instructions” today. Stay tuned. For example, Oppose the use of “legal sex”; demand it be termed “1975-sex”. Oppose the use of hate speech “biological sex”.

Already the wheels are falling off the false – at best – EHRC guidance on the For Women Scotland decision. After a month of insisting the law was “clear”, it’s now asked for an extension to reply to the “significant and complex issues” our letter raises: goodlaw.social/nvfh

We need to be relentless in pushing MPs on the Supreme Court ruling. We already hear that it has been noticed, and it is making a massive effect. And we thought we would put a bunch of these letter writing campaigns into a small thread.

Our methodological critique of The Cass Review has been peer-reviewed published & is therefore way more authoritative than Cass which is un-peer-reviewed. Streeting/Starmer can no longer claim Cass is “gold standard” or “landmark”. Cass is just junk science. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

April’s Supreme Court decision is being treated as the final word. But the judgment has introduced considerable uncertainty to the law, and some parts appear to set back the rights of trans people by over 20 years, says barrister @crash-w.bsky.social: goodlaw.social/d4n8

My latest article on the judgment is now out in Prospect Magazine. This one I think is probably the most shareable with those who aren't as aware of what is going on. Please take a look!

From barrister @crash-w.bsky.social.
