All the news here. Safe Schools Alliance and Fair Cop are supporting a 14 year old girl take action against the CPS not he basis their LGBT hate crime guidance puts her at risk.

To quote SSAUK "We find it disturbing that this guidance seeks to control the ‘personal thoughts’ of children, we believe this to be damaging to children’s mental health. It also has a chilling effect on free speech which is the antithesis of effective #safeguarding."

The girls says ""Girls should not have to stay silent when they are uncomfortable with males in their toilets. This is supposed to be anti-bullying guidance but I feel intimidated that I would have to stay silent. That's not anti-bullying; not for girls."

This is big news, please share as much as you can.

She's a mature, thoughtful, and resilient girl, and I am extremely proud of her.

And so you should be. What a credit to you Thanks

This is such excellent news, I am so pleased. Every court action - and hopefully, every success - makes these accusations of hatred and bigotry look even more hollow and ridiculous. Fingers crossed for Supreme Court victory for Fair Cop and then my cup runneth over.

I’ve donated, you must be so proud of what a strong, brave young woman your daughter is.

Donated. What a fantastic young woman your daughter is @TheBigBad

OhHolyJesus · 27/04/2020 21:37

Hi BigBad wow your DD is just....wow.

Whatever you've done, keep doing it as you're doing something right. She must feel grounded and secure and been taught to have the courage of her convictions to fight for what is right. Quite a winning combination.

What an example. What a warrior.

She shouldn't need to do this but I cannot express how glad I am she is. We are with you, keep going.

R0wantrees · 27/04/2020 21:36

She's a mature, thoughtful, and resilient girl, and I am extremely proud of her.

Flowers & thanks to you both.

rosiepony · 27/04/2020 21:27

Brilliant young woman, well done! This could be the start of it all!

LastTrainEast · 27/04/2020 21:27

Donated. Thanks

Michelleoftheresistance · 27/04/2020 21:27

You must be very proud of her BigBad Flowers Come the hour, cometh several remarkable young women stepping up in these court cases to speak for women and girls.

truthisarevolutionaryact · 27/04/2020 21:24

Sending all best wishes to your daughter TheBigBad. It is unthinkable what is being done to girls / young women by adult groups (like the CPS) who frankly should know better. She is a fantastic role model to others.

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 27/04/2020 21:19

Congratulations on raising such a strong and principled young daughter, TheBigBad. I’m sorry she was bullied, but she should keep in mind that many of her schoolmates will admire her bravery, even if they’re too frightened to speak out.

PIKNIK20 · 27/04/2020 21:16

Great news. Hopefully more and more people will find out what is happening to our young people. Where has safeguarding gone?

TheBigBad · 27/04/2020 21:07

Hello. Mum of one very brave and determined 14 year old here. She has asked me to thank you all for your support - she is a victim of bullying herself to the point where she changed schools, so she wants proper guidance in schools about bullying. She's a mature, thoughtful, and resilient girl, and I am extremely proud of her.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 27/04/2020 20:54

Brilliant. The CPS "hate crime" guidance is shameful.

Thinkingabout1t · 27/04/2020 20:32

Donated and shared.

What a brave 14-year-old, presumably also backed by sensible parents. Best of luck to them.

Wait what? This is after Oxfordshire CC and the Trans Toolkit? I heard Warwickshire have dropped theirs already.

You adult human females sure are super sheroes atm! Bit broke but will donate when I can.

Apollo440 · 27/04/2020 20:21

Donated. Thank you.

MindTheMinotaur · 27/04/2020 19:58

Donated

1Gadfly · 27/04/2020 19:53

This is really heartening. Thank you.

Fallingirl · 27/04/2020 19:49

This guidance is forcing girls to consent to sharing single sex spaces with males. Forced consent is no consent at all.

Kudos to this girl and her family.
