Rachel Meade - it's a win!

More about Wolton here. Different spelling but apparently the same person.

4. The consequences of the failure of SWE to train its Case Examiners to respect protected beliefs.

I especially like that bit. I can hear the gnashing of teeth from here. Maya, thank God for you.

Wow congrats to Rachel and her legal team!

My heart bleeds for all the women (and men), who’ve had their lives absolutely shattered by various activists/employers/bodies/institutions. It’s utterly disgraceful.

Glad you won, Rachel!

Congratulations Rachel, I've just donated again to celebrate.

As an aside - do we know when the Jo Phoenix judgement will be out?

Congratulations Rachel! Great judgment.

Bravo Rachel!

Again we see that actual law and policy are two totally different things, and much of the policy is not only batshit, it's illegal.

Would the elected government like to extract their thumbs from their bums and do something about this please? Are we really going to have to take them all to court individually?

I'd like to think Woolton will reflect on Woolton's own behaviour, but I wouldn't put money on it.

It will be interesting if Woolton, in Woolton's capacity as Head of DEI for Sports England, feels professionally obliged, as well as obligated by Nolan Principles of Public Life, to

• fully appraise Sports England of the comments about Woolton's actions
• advise Sports England to be mindful of Woolton's own (misguided) cognitive and emotional biases so as not to lead Sports England down a very wrong path.

Wonderful news!

It feels like a significant axe blow against the stranglehold of capture our institutions and regulatory bodies are still held in.

Well done Rachel, and I hope you have a great celebration tonight after all the misery they put you through for all this time.

Great news! The judgement is well worth reading.

Think this demonstrates the power of the "sacred caste". Since the motley crew of flashers, porn addicts and others was celebrated by the "Women & Equalities Committee" with nobody noticing (except women) that they were supremely unsuitable to consult about women's rights. Since trans activists with not an iota of qualifications have been allowed to weigh in and influence schools and child healthcare, doing monumental harm to children. Politicians have not only stood by but have funded these people.

And then when these beliefs are tested in the courts, they're found to be against the law - every time.

This is modern day McCarthyism

Can’t wait for it to be resigned to history too, and people look back aghast

Rachel helps us get closer

WOO HOO

Such a great start to the year. Well done Rachel, you must be so relieved. I hope they pay lots of compensation, though I am sure it won't be enough for the mental torture they have put you through.

I'm off the read the Judgement.

Rachel🍻🍻✊✊

Here, Rachel explains what happened. She liked and shared gender-critical material on her private Facebook page and a “friend” squealed on her. Sinister as hell. I’m so glad justice has prevailed - Rachel did nothing wrong.

The thing that blows my mind about Rachel’s case is that they’ve attempted to cast out an experienced social worker on the say-so of a disgruntled member of the public. Is the UK so awash with cautious, thoughtful social workers that we can afford to traduce and exclude them in this way? By all accounts social work departments across the country face persistent recruitment challenges. This is not the way to encourage decent candidates into the profession or retain them. 🤦‍♀️

Yep, off the top of my head Woolton was Rachel's 'friend' on Facebook and spent some months documenting evidence of Rachel's 'phobia' without raising it with her directly, then presented this 'evidence' to the regulator to investigate. Oh, whilst Woolton was also posting stuff on Woolton's own FB page which, had it been complained about to the regulator, would have potentially attracted greater censure than the wrong think Rachel shared.

I'd like to think Woolton will reflect on Woolton's own behaviour, but I wouldn't put money on it.

Very pleasing result. Well done to Rachel and all who stood up and supported her.

Just got in and read this!
Woop woop!
Massive congrats to Rachel and team for utterly deserved victory.
Vindicated.
I hope she receives a shed load of compo.

Indeed. It's becoming very clear that the reputational risks of listening to Stonewall & their self identified legal "experts" are becoming clear.
Responsible adults understand that diluting safeguarding for children, selling them the lie that they can change sex with drugs and surgery, wedging men in to women's sport, let alone insisting that women and girls must make their undressed bodies available for men on demand, are doomed to failure. No matter how coercive, how threatening, how whining the demands are - women and good men will say no.

This is such good news. So glad for Rachel which vindicates her, but also means we know all have an additional legal case to use in our own defence if needed.

Didn't someone have the idea of starting a thread listing the legal wins, so that anyone needing to be able to refer to legal decisions could just scroll through.

ie not a thread like this where we discuss or say thanks, but a post per case with links to ruling and discussion thread on FWR.

Such good news. Well done Rachel, can’t believe it takes all this, just to say you believe that sex is not changeable.

Fan-bloody-tastic!

Had a stonkingly shocking start to the new term, but this has cheered me up no end!

Well done to Rachel and her team. I am so sorry that it ended up on so much stress and expense, but that was a wonderful result.

Excellent news, so pleased for Rachel but also so angry for what she has had to go through because of these vicious authoritarian trans activists. The only benefit is it is set out in black and white again what the law actually is, any employers still intent on implementing Stonewall law should be very worried.

I work for a local council and want to write a letter with many points said and discussed in this thread. They’re up stonewalls arse
