This is the case where Mermaids challenged the Charity Commission's decision to give charitable status to the LGBA.

Don't have any more detail at the moment, but thought you'd all be interested. It's been a four month wait already.

Another "technical victory" that isn't a victory for the Good Law Project? Is the judgment available anywhere?

How long until we get a "LGBA lost actually, because..." response?

It was disgraceful that two straight people tried to get a charity for LGB people shut down.

It's on PA Media now on Twitter - I think that's reliable?
Phew and yay! Congratulations LGB Alliance

Maybe now IW will have to stop calling them a transphobic hate group

James Esses is saying LGBA won, and he is usually reliable.

ArabeIIaScott · 06/07/2023 10:11

Yes.

Thank the Lord. I hope it’s a wholehearted win, not one Mermaids can claim as a win too.
