You can just about read it from this photo on twitter. There's a opinion piece at the bottom from Baroness Nicholson talking about the confusion of the Equality Act trap.

Is it cynical to assume they know most minor sexual crimes, ie. flashing, groping, watching others' in a state of undress are not reported?

They might know that. But they also know - I would hope - that if a woman is groped, flashed etc in one of their changing rooms they will lose one customer and that if she tells other people they will lose many more. So I think they are stupid rather than cynical.

When I say this, I mean the whole hoo ha on twitter

I was very disappointed reading this last night, I mistakenly thought JL had done a u-turn as this all kicked off a couple of years ago didn't it?

I also thought M&S had done a u-turn too but they were mentioned in that piece, does anyone know if they are still saying it's identity not sex?

I really really need some bras, running out of places to shop!

For actual fucks sake. Ok they are on the list then. Where am I even going to shop? Why are all the businesses so ignorant?

You’d think given their financial problems they’d engage their brains but then they’re a stonewall champion.....

I think this tells you all you need to know about John Lewis - but I'll check the Twitter out too

I thought John Lewis was better than that. They probably were once.
If a customer acts in appropriately John Lewis will take action after the event and a woman or girl has been left traumatised and violated.
Shame on John Lewis. Another one to add to the shit list. I've spent a fortune with them in the past. They can fuck off now.

Gotta love the Baroness!
