I stand with Allison Bailey

Alison has courage and integrity.

I stand with Allison, her individual targeting by the misogynistic authoritarian gender extremists only goes to show how needed the new LGB Alliance is and how power crazed and fucked up this culture war against women has got. Employers should be sticking up for their employees not investigating them. What has she possibly done anyway for anyone to investigate? ..Thought crime? Not being validating of men enough? Sticking up for lesbians to be lesbians in peace without men ‘lesbians’ trying to encroach on them?

Also Stonewall if it has any decency at all, will be out there tweeting its support for Allison and condemning individual personal attacks on her or any person simply trying to stick up for lesbian and gay or bi rights and for women. Come on, Stonewall.

I stand with Allison too.

I stand with Allison. This is appalling. Homophobia is now fine - so long as you exclusively aim it at women.

And yet more evidence of regulatory capture. Hang in there, Allison. #nowomanleftbehind

The chambers have to say they will investigate complaints. That's what you do. Someone complains, it is investigated. It would have been a bit of a surprise if they responded to complaints by refusing to take them seriously.

Yes Allison is right, they have had to respond to the TRA hate mob, as usual, but they are publishing only neutral statements about taking complaints seriously and supporting equality.

I imagine the Stonewall factions within the chambers are going to come under serious strain here, it is about time too as the law being taught by Stonewall is seriously questionable if not downright false.

We need barristers to sort this out as it's such an emotive mess.

I also stand with Allison. I’m sick of women being hounded and ganged-up on. And I wish Owen Jones would STFU.

god, Owen Jones really doesn't get it, does he? The comment about cunnilingus is in reference to the cotton ceiling, this idea popular with some woke types that female bodied lesbians should have sex with male bodied trans women who identify as lesbians. The idea that male bodied gay men would have sex with female bodied trans men who identify as gay men is risible. The subject doesn't come up and on the rare occasions it does and super woke gay men admit that they wouldn't have sex with a transman, that's considered fine.

gosh, Allison is a brave woman. She's strong enough to say what she thinks, stand by what she believes. I hate that I can't/won't do this. She's much stronger than me. Huge respect for her.

I'm very new to all this, and can get very anxious. Just a quick check, is there anything I really should or shouldn't put in the card? Thanks for any heads-up from those of you who know what you're doing!

I stand with Alison.

THAT HYPOCRITICAL BASTARD. OH MY GOD.

🤯

I've used funky pigeon to send a post card, that way anyone from the post office to the office junior can read it.

I stand with Allison.

Allison's tweet from earlier.
I admire her integrity, courage and dignity in the face of such bullying and cowardice.

Just seen on another thread, a poster has noticed Kathleen Stock has pointed out on Twitter

‘Anyone unsure about why gardencourtlaw has reacted in so publicly partisan a matter to BluskyeAllison’s involvement in the new AllianceLGB may be interested to know that the Trans Equality Legal Initiative (TELI) are based there. Check out their propagandistic feed’

This connection with the well funded “strategic litigation” organisation (ie to test the law where possible to favour gender ID) explains why garden chambers are so keen to crack down on anyone questioning the party line.

So much woke.

I hope she has someone sifting through the cards, because I’m sure the poor bullied woman will be receiving horrible stuff too. We need to make sure she’s knows how much we admire her strength of character.

Standing with Alison

Mine is more of a letter card. Just stating she has support and I hope she will soon be back at work with it being laughed at how ridiculous it was to begin with. That I hope it will be quickly concluded that women and LGB shouldn't be silenced etc. Giving her my best wishes. X

I stand by Allison 100%. How she must have fought to get to her position only to find that her chambers are now selling her out to homophobic, sexist bullies.

Mine is a 'just to say' blank card. Inside I've just thanked her and told her how important her work is and that she has support.

Just a note from an ordinary woman.

What kind of cards are yous sending?

Off to post my card now.
Allison, if you're reading this, know that you are supported here.

I stand with Allison Bailey.

Apart from anything else, the rank stupidity of publicly capitulating to an online troll, in the most craven, spiritless fashion imaginable, makes them look fearful and irresolute at best - and homophobic and misogynistic at worst.

I don't understand why they commented publicly, indeed why they had to comment at all.

Weak willed, knee-jerk reactions are not what you look for in a firm of barristers.

Once again, I'm left wondering where all the grown-ups have gone.
