I found this interesting. Covers the Maya Forstater case on beliefs at work and their manifestation as well as latest guidance from the Chartered Institute of Personnel on trans/non binary accommodations.

Helpful for work considerations on the debate to not fall foul when expressing ones beliefs and concerns.

"It would be unlawful to misgender someone." How do they know?

I sincerely hope that it would not be unlawful to "refuse to use the correct pronouns" if that means use sex-based pronouns as I have done since I learned to talk. Who has unilaterally changed the meaning of third person pronouns, and whose consent did they ask? I am distressed when my speech is compelled; the transgender narrative depends on trans people being the most vulnerable and disadvantaged, but ignores the interests of elderly people (like me) and women. Everyone can be vulnerable in some circumstances, and I do not think a hierarchy of disadvantage is an entirely just way of organising society.

Good if all the discrimination against and bullying of, those who know that sex exists, cannot be changed and believes those facts can be important on occasion, stops.

I won’t hold my breath though.

Still looks a bit of a mine-field, but does reassert the protection of thoughts and beliefs! I guess this still needs testing in practice.
