Zack Polanski and the code

WallaceinAnderland · 2026-05-22T16:03:06+00:00

Has anyone seen any comment from Polanski regarding the EHRC code? As far as I can tell, he's conspicuously silent.

I was in Whitehall yesterday as the protest was breaking up.

Noticed that a couple of the large plastic 'street urinals' had been rolled over and broken - not sure if this was part of the protest but have not seen then vandalized before.
I walked past a couple of sets of protestors who had their placards slung over their shoulders covered by black plastic bags. Couldn't work out if this was because they were too offensive to walk around in public with, too embarrassing or something else.

I had to look up street urinals, I had no idea these were a thing. 😮

They may have done it, maybe they took umbrage with them being positioned there, last time the unhinged congregated for a flounce, they made a big deal out of peeing wherever they wanted. Perhaps they thought the council was trying to tell them something. 😂

The latest sad news for Zack in that his top notch legal expert who will save the TA cause singlehanded has got himself into a deeper spot of bother by defaming Sarah Phillimore and the legal action against him has developed further.

Sarah's defamation action against the Fox Basher has got to the next stage and she now has a great barrister working for her on a no win no fee basis. GLP in serious trouble. Gardening needed if you have seeds.

So depressing for the Greens. They’ve completely lost their way. Very sad really.

I wonder what Zack thinks his Muslim voters who voted Green because of their policy on Gaza think about his support of men in women's toilets.

I'd wager a guess they're extremely extremely not keen.

This is a tightrope for him

Hopefully he falls off

womendeserveequalhumanrights · 23/05/2026 19:26

'Exhausted and scared' because they have to use a single user unisex toilet and can't get their knob out in front of unconsenting women and children.

There are not enough eye rolls in the world.

TRAs have claimed to be modern-day suffragettes, haven't they? Just one of the identities/campaigns/causes they have appropriated.😠

I thought there'd be a bigger crowd at their demo - it has been a fashionable cause, lots of allies and #bekinders have turned out in the past to support 'the most marginalised'.

Not the fashionable cause du jour any more, perhaps?

The Socialist Worker's 2nd headline is wrong
The guidance would deny trans+ people access to single-sex spaces.
No it doesn't! Trans+ [what do they mean by the +, I wonder?] people are welcome to access single-sex spaces - their own single-sex spaces, that is.

Maybe even they rolled their eyes at the toilets.

They have and unfortunately they’ve been enabled in this. British Vogue did a photo shoot of “modern day suffragettes” in 2018 and included Paris Lees.

I actually do really feel for those people who have been lied to. They were told by Stonewall and by our own government that it was legal for males to use single sex facilities provided for females. That was wrong of them to let them believe they had rights in law which they simply did not have.

The government has totally failed them. All we have done is re-establish what the law always was so they have not lost any rights BUT they do believe that those 'rights' were taken away from them and I can see why they think that.

The government really fucked up, the NHS and the unions, in particular have caused so much harm to both women and transgender people.

They've let young people undergo medical intervention, I personally now know three young women who have had their breasts removed as casually as getting a haircut. I still find it unbelievable when I think of the damage done to so many. It's very sad.

I am often struck by the number of the mental health posts and it often worries me how little support these people are getting. I strongly strongly believe that they should be receiving high-quality mental health support in the round that enables them to deal with the other comorbidities that they clearly have - so often autism often cases of abuse et cetera they are cry for help and they are people who deserve help and they don’t seem to be getting it

These are the kind of people who are probably most vulnerable to the high--inducing talk of oppression, marginalisation, violence, martyrdom, annihilation, genocide.
Instead of support, they get wound up into a state of anxiety and hypervigilance.

Hang on a minute, pissing in a bottle just proves that they don't need access to female toilets doesn't it?

I got a feeling the statues around Parliament Square are in for another dousing, and with the sun being out maybe all the 'third sexers' will get their manboobs out as well. 🤪

I am very glad I am a very long way away from the lunacy.

Just had a trawl through. They seem to be upset about pretty much everyone. BBC, Andy Burnham, Starmer, Phillipson, all newspapers, black women (yes a post entitled 'Black women and transphobia'), The Samaritans (its statement not aggressive enough), - you just lose count of who they're angry with.

Show quote history

In fairness, if I were to list out the institutions I thought were acting in an anti-women way, it would be even longer than that.

Are we sure the poster for the protest is real and now a pisstake?

Nothing at all. However, that doesn't fit in with the narrative.
