And then you read the interview which is basically

The public are on our side
Just an admin change

I read that headline with a tinY bit of hope. She then goes on to say: “accept everything we demand and there will be no more toxicity“.

“What you see instead is that the overwhelming majority of people [83%] don’t see themselves as transphobic and don’t agree with transphobia. And the majority position around things like bathrooms is that women feel fine about it.”

I dont think it’s transphobic to want to keep bathrooms single sex.

Spot on. She isn't planning to defuse the issue at all: she is planning to do everything that Ruth Hunt campaigned for, just more quietly in the hope that we won't notice.

The only bit of good news is that the decision to try to go back under the radar presumably reflects a growing scepticism from the public, as more people wake up to what is being proposed.
