Get the popcorn folks. GLP is getting ready to lose again.

They are going after barrister Sarah Phillimore for referring to a man as a man. They think they are going to lawfare her into silence.

Her blog:

Here we are now: Entertain us
I have had now 7 years and counting of the various tactics used to 'silence' those who won't comply with prevailing orthodoxy. How are those tactics holding up?

The only thing is other TAs have already tried this on Phillimore multiple times. They went to the Bar Council their claims were dismissed. They all failed. More to the point this ‘Kate’ is the same guy complaining again who already failed. Sarah Phillimore knows the law and likes explaining it to TAs and making them lose. So she doesn't even resent the attempt.

As Sarah has stated "They pick on someone who not only enjoys this but has now a vast repository of knowledge about the law in this area."

Sarah Phillimore

Because I don’t tweet as a public body, an employer or provider of goods or services. I am not subject to the Equality Act. I tweet as a private individual and I will say again. You can’t change sex. A man cannot be a woman. I cannot be compelled to call a man a woman.

A trans identifying man such as ‘Kate’ who frequently takes to the public stage to urge violence against women and declare his intent to enter women’s spaces, is a dangerous man and one who will attract public comment.

The Fonz? The Grandfonz, more like. Most famous for hanging around in toilets...

I mean I'm not opposed to a middle aged man experimenting with a new look, particularly if he expects to be doing lots of media, but Jolyon seems to be gradually transforming into The Fonz

I bet his office is a toilet.....

Has he had fillers or Botox? He's looking very inflated round the face

Ereshkigalangcleg · 06/09/2025 22:47

He has almost jumped the shark, I’m sure it will be soon.

You know, Jolyon having reached that difficult age could have just bought a leather jacket and sports car like many men, or taken a trip to Malaga like many other men, but he wouldn't have given us nearly so much entertainment.

I wish Tom Sharpe were alive to write a novel based on him.

I hear one of his clients has an Italian Leather Jacket he could lend Angrydad.

There’s even a little ditty to go with it …

'Transphobic organisation' being four women, who met on Mumsnet, wanting women's rights upheld under the EA 2010. For that to happen, they had to go all the way to the SC to arrive at an accurate definition of what a woman is.

You couldn't make it up. Oh, wait. He just did.

Taytoface · 06/09/2025 13:14

Oooh I have never seen him in the flesh so to speak. He is cringetastic. Is he the best they have got?

moto748e · 06/09/2025 12:58

That's a top job by the labourpains people. It's important that these chancers are held to account.

Is “we” the Royal We? Pretty sure the lawsuit will be against him personally.

Shh, you're not supposed to notice that.
I wonder if that's what the Joe 90 specs and bouffant are about, distraction techniques like a table magician ?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 06/09/2025 09:55

It is, particularly enjoyed “newly bouffant” Jolyon Maugham Grin

This is a very good and actually quite upsetting point. Maugham has raised a million pounds. Every penny will go to fund his ego when it could have established a dedicated service for trans identifying men facing abuse and violence.
Quote
Audrey Ludwig MBE
They could also practically fund specialist DV and homeless shelters for trans identified people. I’m hearing hard pressed charities saying we have no money for dedicated services if we exclude those few trans women (who feel unable to use male services) from women’s services.

The video worries me though. If Jolyon isn't careful he's going to harrumph himself to death.
