The Tribunal will start on 25th April at 10am. If you would like to view online you need to send a request for access as early as possible.

Send an email to

[email protected]

The subject heading of the email request should read

“MEDIA OR PUBLIC ACCESS REQUEST – Case number 2202172/2020 - Ms A Bailey – 25th April 2022.

Then ask for the pin for the online access.

You will be contacted with instructions on how to observe the hearing.

I have sent a request but haven't had anything back yet. Hopefully nearer the time.

FannyCann I agree. It certainly sums up how fed up people are at having these things forced down their throats at work and knowing if they object the consequences are very dire. Shades of 1984 and North Korea or even Russia in terms of wanting everyone at work to have the same views on all topics including who is a woman etc.

From that roll on Friday article. I think I can safely say she speaks for all of us. StarGin

"A woman at Gowling WLG said the firm should "sack off" the controversial charity, while a solicitor at Womble Bond Dickinson rued her firm’s reliance on the pressure group. "Not a day goes by where we are not exhorted to celebrate the next Stonewall-sponsored edict”, she said: “I suspect most staff would just prefer a decent pay rise and some extra colleagues to carry the work burden"."

It is just awful. Fucking arseholes.

How on earth do these people condone this sort of behaviour? It's outrageous.

For someone to make a joke username to gloat about it at the trial is just cruel.

WarriorNewAgain · 30/04/2022 07:47

That's disgusting.

Example of male pattern bullying if ever I saw it.

The ridiculous thing about that cross examination is that if either of those organisations had collected and kept data on sexual orientation at events they would presumably have been breaking the law. Sexual orientation is special category data and has additional protections under GDPR.

I think it was the name of a popular chocolate bar, I won't repeat it and have no idea why it is offensive.

Show quote history

There was a bit of a hooha on twitter a while ago about someone throwing said chocolate bar into Allison's garden, which the TRAs occasionally hark back to, in order to take the piss out of her.

Boadicea2 · 30/04/2022 00:41

Actually an interesting question.
Out of the 30 donors on the front page there were 4 non sex-specific names and 5 male names so 21 female names. I couldn't tell their sexuality for some reason! I think that's about what you'd expect. I don't suppose it can be brought in as evidence though.

Redshoeblueshoe · 30/04/2022 00:31

Sorry Jules - I just can't help it
I wonder how many are a) males and b) lesbians
😎🍷

TheBiologyStupid · 30/04/2022 00:29

Yup, Maya Forstater, Allison Bailey, Kathleen Stock, Jo Phoenix all have something common apart from being "cancelled" ...

The crowdfunder is at 97% which is pretty incredible. Supporters have raised over half a million pounds to defend Allison and through her gender critical beliefs. I hope that it will go some way to reduce the stress on her.

Wonder if they've collected data on how many of us are a) women and b) lesbians.

JulesRimetStillGleaming · 30/04/2022 00:07

I'm intrigued too. I thought it was very telling that the only evidence of harassment was towards the claimant. Right side of history huh?

Thanks. Intrigued and wracking brains now. There are some unpleasant players in this game, it would seem.

EJ (the judge) remarked on it but did not identify the pseudonym. The twitter account tribunaltweets reported on EJ's remark but didn't add anything extra.

What was the offensive name? I missed this morning, not that I'm able to watch anyway.

tabbycatstripy · 29/04/2022 21:17

I doubt they would unless the incident was repeated.

Redshoeblueshoe · 29/04/2022 20:53

Does anyone know can the tribunal ban the person who had the offensive username from viewing the rest of the proceedings /
?

TheBiologyStupid · 29/04/2022 18:57

I see Auntie Beeb is reporting on the case now: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-61275720

Am I too late to put in an order for a magic rabbit? Cos I'd rather like one that identifies as a unicorn and poops rainbow sparkles.

Wouldn't it fight with the invisible dragon?
