I’m delighted to see Sex Matters saying that they will look to take organisations that are negligent in this matter to court so individuals don’t have to. They are genuinely fulfilling their brief and will bring about positive change for women

None of the Times share token links work for me - has anyone had that issue before? I keep trying to read posts and can’t, it’s so frustrating!

Supreme Court: ‘Humans can’t change biological sex, even if they get a a certificate to change their legal sex. Where the provision of services or activities is limited by sex, then biological sex should be the only factor taken into consideration’

Scottish government: ‘oh it’s just so complicated! We don’t understaaaand! We’re going to have to wait until someone can explain this more clearly <sad face>’

as a pp notes, if the Scottish Government can’t understand the SC ruling, they stand fuck all chance of running an independent Scotland

How is the SNP planning to run and organize and I assume write laws for an independent Scotland if they can't work this out without guidance from the EHRC?

I wish Sex Matters would send a copy of that letter to the Welsh Government, they seem to have decided to ignore everything and carry on in they own stupid bubble.
The response I got from my SM to the email I sent about the SC judgement wasn't worth the energy it took for a minion to press send.
Keep up the pressure Sex Matters, and maybe start targeting organisations that are promoting defiance of the law as well.

There's a comment by Rhona Hotchkiss in the comments as well:

"And this week, a Scottish Trans organisation - funded by ScotGov from public money - refused to meet with the EHRC to discuss the implications of the ruling. They should be defunded immediately."

I'm so ashamed and disheartened by our government. Honestly, its risible.
