PCS - the Public and Commercial Services Union have sent an email to members today stating the decision by the Supreme Court is ‘appalling and devastating’.

Are there any members of FDA or Prospect that has insight to their position and reaction?

I am a retired member of Prospect and had heard nothing, so thought, so far so good.
My son, still working, is an ordinary member, and has just informed me that they have had an email offering support to transpeople (transwomen I assume.)

Are there any unions not captured?

As an aside, today I boycotted a bookshop which I would normally support because they had stuck a big trans flag up in their window. Which wasn't there before.

It was a branch email but said they were copying from the Group Executive Committee. I was surprised at the tone, there was no wiggle room, I wonder if this is a departure from the national group.

I was a member of PCS and I left because of their stance on women. I knew if I got into bother they wouldn’t support me, so I voted with my feet. Shame, I think every employee should be in a union.

I’ve been looking out for a response from Prospect but haven’t had / seen one yet.

If I get one I’ll share here.
