It's wonderful! And hopefully will add pressure to Phillipson to pull her bloody finger out.

Maybe this is will give Brigit Phillipson a kick up the proverbial. Well done ladies!!
This should never have had to happen, the dignity of everyone should have been considered. It also legally shows again that stonewall gave out inaccurate advice on single sex spaces.

Well done ladies what a great piece of news.

amazing!

Bravo to all the nurses who stood up for themselves and for all women.

I wonder if Mr Kemp is having a good day...

Anyway, great news! The judgment hasn't been published publicly yet - I hope they hurry up and it isn't 300+ pages like the Peggie decision was!
