GLP - oops, we did it again.

Remember the GLP claims about the EHRC consultation being crooked and trans responses were being filtered out by AI?

Seems like the EHRC threatened the GLP with legal action and Angry Dad has had to back down.

And still the grift goes on - £455k so far.

As pp said, i kind of hope this is going to be argued in a court because GLP will need to spell out that they know “trans women” are men, and they know full well they don’t have access to women’s spaces as they’ve argued on the basis they do and suffered a humiliating loss.

Just an update from last month at the bottom of this blog post from what I can see.

They must have time and money to burn.

Firstly GLP need to look up the meaning of "deviant behaviour". Secondly if they are going to complain to the Charity Commissioners then claiming "Sex Matters describing women who are trans using women's spaces as 'deviants'." when they say nothing of the sort is going to make them look very stupid.

The group further stated: "Telling staff supervising single-sex spaces that they must second-guess themselves when they become aware of a man engaging in the deviant behaviour of accessing a female-only space, or risk breaching data-protection law, will lead to unwanted conduct related to the protected characteristic of sex that is likely to meet the definition of harassment in the Equality Act. It 'violates a person’s dignity or creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating, or offensive environment'."

Now, Joylon Maugham KC, founder and director of the Good Law Project, has said a complaint will be lodged with the Charity Commission over the statement.

In a post on Bluesky, Maugham wrote: "We're complaining to the Charity Commission about Sex Matters describing women who are trans using women's spaces as 'deviants'.

Jolyon Maugham KC (@jolyon.goodlawproject.org)

We're complaining to the Charity Commission about Sex Matters describing women who are trans using women's spaces as "deviants". The language is unacceptable (and the statement is wrong in law). We're looking for other examples of it (staff or Trustee...

I really should have compiled a list of quotes from Jolyon Maugham and Robin Moira White. They are doing my campaigning for me on toilets.

If they try that they'll be thrown out of crt because
A, the claim that they brought has nothing to do with it
B, the high crt can't overrule the SC
C, you cant sue just because you dont like the law you have to petition parliament to change the law

Angry Dad has confirmed that the November hearing would then be about the issued guidance and not the interim update.

Sit down, GLP, you are making idiots of yourselves (again).

Binglebong · 16/08/2025 16:03

That statement is still saying the consultation was flawed. If he was given a cease and desist, would that really count as resisting or is he still libelling them?

pontefractals · 16/08/2025 15:50

I've posted this else-thread, too, but he's making dodgy claims about John Boyle, too, and being pulled up for it:

Hoardasurass · 15/08/2025 11:58

Hmm so if ive translated that statement correctly what the glp are saying is sorry not sorry, we have been forced to take down our liable ridden statement (even though we identify it as a factual statement) because some big meanie's said they'd sue us if we didn't and we'd lose in a way that we cant claim was a win so we've taken it down under protest.
I somehow doubt that that statement will be enough to save them

Ooh, that would be juicy!

Oh brilliant. Have any of these people

Their behaviour seems very odd.

I think they are more legal care practitioners

SidewaysOtter · 15/08/2025 12:38

And so the grift goes on. Except, what are they all donating for? The Good Laugh Project threatened to sue the EHRC and in turn have been met with the threat of being sued themselves. There is no reference to any further legal action.

It's just nebulous references to "the fight to defend trans rights" and "holding the commission to account".

So what EXACTLY is that cool half-a-mil going to be spent on? Kimonos?

Is there a running total of GLP threatened actions and actual actions, number of wins, money involved.

Or would that just reveal it is nothing more than a vanity project for a man whose ego transparently exceeds his intelligence?

Indeed there is.

The biggest shock in all this is why the fuck people are still giving them money. Might as well just go into the garden and set fire to a bunch of 💷 for all the good they are doing.

Maybe it will turn out to be a secret art project, like when the KLF burnt a million pounds on Jura.

But but he won really

(Also posting that probably means he can now charge up some lawyer-ly fees to those donations, after all, the kimonos aren’t going to buy themselves).
