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?
https://sarahphillimore.substack.com/p/here-we-are-now-entertain-us?

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.

Nice to see the fox botherer with another grifter Proudman.

Bet he's got lunch with Jack Monroe and the Walter Mitty Dr Jessica Taylor in his calendar too 😂

One of the most profound compliments for the work I get to do is being considered safe to be invited into intimate spaces in communities to which I do not belong
"intimate spaces" 🤢
Fuck my old boots, that should have stayed in drafts

JD, please would you put a warning on these posts - I wasn't prepared and that quote has bent the needle on my iron-y-meter

Probably not relevant to the thread but he continues to generate enough cringe to power the LHC. I hope the double date went well...

It's the usual faux humility & name dropping but this is just untrue isn't it?
"It’s a striking ending: a barrister who began his public life dissecting tax avoidance now talking about students, campuses, and legal defence infrastructure."
I thought he'd made his millions defending tax minimisation strategies by his clients?

He is so dishonest - attacking the Supreme Court for not allowing trans individuals to speak when he must know it never hears from individuals in this type of case.

I wonder if he chose the photo they used? Obviously his (Epstein lookalike) bluesky profile pic is a no-no but they should have chosen something a bit more recent than that Brexit era one. Absolute cowardice not to go with this

An otherwise sycophantic article published in 2023 says "About 10 years ago Maugham was appearing in tax avoidance cases (and not on the side of HMRC)."

Low testosterone is evidence that sex isnt binary? Crikey. That's amusing.

I think they're mixing up their axis again, aren't they.

Short men don't shade down into women.

What comparitor are they using to determine that someone has low testosterone?

A male with low testosterone would still have levels way higher than a female.

(Rhetorical of course)

You'd think a company made of lawyers would be able to rustle up a response in time.

I guess all those marathon eunuch films do take up a lot of hours.

Funnily enough you can't make up a legal case if there isnt a legal leg to stand on.

Theere are 2 huge differences between being left handed and having a gender identity. You can't pretend to be left handed if you are actually right handed and a close examination of a skeleton will reveal whether the owner was left or right handed but won't tell the examiner anything about their gender.
