As counsel has pointed out, Sandie Peggie has to date made no formal complaint about anyone using the toilet, which serves as a changing room merely by custom.

Exactly. As counsel has pointed out, Peggie has to date made no formal complaint about anyone using the toilet, which serves as a changing room merely by custom.
…do well to prepare for in advance, especially their leaders, in conjunction with experienced & knowledgeable trans human rights campaigners. It also suggests Starmer is expecting trouble getting his transphobic agenda through. So we keep fighting but make some crucial strategic adjustments. 5/6
My instinct is that the panel (one judge and two CIPD members) would simply dismiss or disregard these conspiracy theory-like side issues. If this goes awry, the only recourse would be an appeal.
5/ I do not practice law in the UK, so in this case I can only comment on matters strictly within my own profession. Whether barristers and hate groups conspired to interfere with the administration of justice is not my concern and remains a question for further investigation.
They're using the St George's cross like a socially acceptable swastika just like they use 'biological' as a socially acceptable discrimination.
4/ As a member of the chartered institute for computing (we caution against misuse of expert evidence after the Post Office scandal), I am bound by professional ethics. I can state unequivocally that Jim Borwick is not a member of our profession. And should not be allowed to give evidence.
3/ I previously wrote this: medium.com/@notashley/j... There are far too many way the metadata can lose meaning that the so-called expert cannot account for. He cannot claim to have made any genuine effort to replicate this.
2/ Google Takeout (or any other method of exporting from Google Keep) does not provide the original stored data. Instead, it generates what we ordinarily call “reports” on the fly. So, the export cannot prove or disprove what was saved to the ☁️. That exercise is completely irrelevant as evidence.
1/🧵 Now the hate groups published their submissions against NHS Fife. I can say this is perjury and nuttier than what was reported.

Good to see @iansollom.bsky.social @graemedowniemp.bsky.social & @joshnewburymp.bsky.social coming out of the gate after Parliamentary recess with some zingers for the Women & Equalities Minister to answer on Wednesday 🏳️⚧️💪🏳️⚧️ Pressure’s mounting, guys, let’s keep it up. More to come tomorrow! 📝📝📝 1/
I was planning to find your post from yesterday and congratulate you. 😆
I really want to share, but privacy, sorry. Just read through 1990s to get a gist. 😆
My year shocks me. I thought no way those were as new as me, but then I looked them up…
My year shocks me…
The more I read about his so-called human rights law career, the clearer it became that he only does things that let him fail upwards. He’s no different from the rest of his cabinet. They all fail upwards.
All my friends (including one who joined Matrix Chambers this year, good on him) who went into crime and human rights work spent nights taking emergency calls. But not Keir Starmer. Sure he is from a different generation. But he stuck to high-end Commonwealth Caribbean death penalty cases.
The only real highlight of his very long career is the McLibel case and that only happened because of the Human Rights Act and the quirks of the notorious English libel law at the time. Honestly, almost any libel case around 1999 could have become the first big test.
As a former human rights lawyer (the kind who bailed protesters out of police stations under tear gas and fought against injunctions, let me be clear, Keir Starmer is not a human rights lawyer, and he has never done the kind of work we do.
Great artwork.
The kids are alright.
We have our own version of butter chicken down under too.
Somewhere in Iceland.
Yes, I understand. I’d say that’s actually a bit of foreshadowing in the Good Friday Agreement itself, isn’t it?
Sorry, but I don’t think the Good Friday Agreement should be the main focus here. The European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms carries greater importance than other treaties. Indeed, the Good Friday Agreement makes the very point I’m making.

I can only say… fascinating?
I’ve never used FaceApp, only Snapchat filters. But I’ve noticed that whenever my mum and I both have short hair, we look very much alike.

This. The Supreme Court in April decided that it was its solemn duty to introduce a new slur against minorities into the mainstream. What legal foresight. What dedication to justice.

A little older, a lot more femme… and the only filters now are from E... no more snapchat too
Snapchat nostalgia. Where it all began… my first snap as I stepped into transition almost 5 years ago.

Exactly that - they basically unilaterally rewrote the law ignoring the clear wording in the act, the evidence readily available from the passage of the bill and neglected to ask those involved what the intent was. All whilst ignoring human rights law. Everyone should be scared, not just us!
No new pictures. Where are you mentally?

Oh wow wishing you a smooth surgery and a gentle, joyful recovery. 😊
Hahaha
Clear your mind. It’s like meditation. 🧘🏻♀️
I told her, “oh by the way, this is my first time doing it”, and she was like, “no way”, because apparently we were equally good.
Absolutely!
I’ve never really been that into oral, but I just tried 69 for the first time and honestly… wow. It was amazing. Gals, why do people say it’s overrated?
Haha, true.
It looks like they are not going to touch on EA2010 but only the Workplace Regulations as EU law.
I would say this is the only acceptable use of the Saint George’s Cross on the streets.
Work in progress?
So MAKE them behave better 🤭
Tbh I think Trump’s hiding is simply a security protocol being engaged in response to the shooting in Minneapolis.
Is Trump still dead?
The only way they could argue against replacing the board is by admitting they are a hate group. A concession they cannot make.
I say the Charity Commission should exercise its statutory function and appoint a trans-majority board to replace the current trustees for the charity Sex Matters. My approach would be more proportionate and hard to challenge.
I am making a freedom of information request 🥺
I call this Hodgean logic.
Has the EHRC failed to produce the draft Code of Practice? Or has it instead slipped it quietly into the ministers’ hands? The last working day of August has passed. I thought its counsel told the Administrative Court that it was aiming for August?

Sand batteries are literally just silos of sand that retain heat exceptionally well -- so well that they can be tied to heat exchange systems to serve as proxy *electrical* batteries. Finland's new model can store enough power (100 MWh) to heat an entire town for a week. newatlas.com/energy/large...

What kind of answer 😂
Is it “vegan organic dairy”, or “vegan, organic, dairy”?

High Court rules that asylum seekers can remain at Bell Hotel in Epping. Justice Bean: "If an outbreak of protests enhances a case for a planning injunction, this runs the risk of acting as an impetus or incentive for further protests, some of which may be disorderly, around asylum accommodation."
Pay attention, Canada. If Alberta is successful in this book banning, this will spread. Look around you, b/c this is how it starts. We're on the same ledge the US was on. And we either start fighting this right-wing rise now, or we follow the Americans over the edge. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Good, I’m outwith it.
Oh, I didn’t know that. Is she the woman who was reported in the news about a decade ago, the one who was supposed to move to Australia with her husband? I once said that her lawyer seemed grossly incompetent, and may even have committed fraud against her. That might explain what happened.
Yes, mostly schizophrenia. Gangstalking is essentially a naturally-occurring self-replicating idea that preys on people with the condition. One of my colleagues died from it about a decade ago.
Sorry to break it to you, but sex pests don’t pretend to be trans to gain access to spaces. They become Labour politicians instead.
Cis Labour MSP allegedly planted a secret camera in the Scottish Parliament’s toilet and possessed indecent images of children. Is he a bingo card? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

guys I'm going to need you to be very gentle with me and NOT make fun of me today, I would say roughly three minutes ago, I found out that Justin Webb and Justin Welby are in fact two different people kept seeing posts and wondering why the former Archbishop kept popping up on the Today programme

the aestheticization of politics means that apparently two pretty white people making out is MAGA obviously MAGA believes this--they couldn't stop yammering about it when she started dating the dude--but we don't exactly have to do their work for them
Haven’t been singing in the shower for months, my mezzo-soprano vocal range is gone. ☹️ Yes, that’s A3-A5.
The grim fact is that the sign houses a single digit.
“Stop letting them get away with pretending it is.” 👍👍👍
The Quakers are doing exactly what all public services are legally allowed to do even if the EHRC wants to pretend they're not: say gender-based toilets are inclusive and for anyone bothered by that as a matter of belief, there are stand-alone cubicles that they are very free to use. 1/
There is no EA right to a more luxurious or convenient place to wee for biological women. FWS did not create one. And it's insane that all the EHRC guidance is suggesting that it did, and most organisations are either too ignorant or too afraid of the TERFs to apply a logical "hang on a minute". 5/
I like “enty”! I should use this.
The guy sitting right in front of me on the overground is so ridiculously hot. If he happens to spot my Pikachu t-shirt, he should meow at me… and then maybe I’ll purr back. 🥺
Interesting development
Hi kitty
Shit…
The gender-neutral term for uncle or aunt, and for nephew or niece, is just cousin, right?
A quick brown fox,
The fact that this is what you're presented with when you potentially have an urgent health issue as the first question you are asked is deeply unreasonable
Congrats
5/ This also raises the question: what do the remaining 385 examples show? Are they all cases where self-identification is prohibited, or something else?
