Work of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) 20026-27 - Oral evidence, Mary-Ann Stephenson, Chair at Equality and Human Rights Commission and John Kirkpatrick, Chief Executive Officer at Equality and Human Rights Commission.

Considering the absolute balloons on this committee, it will be well worth a watch. Only Rosie Duffield and Rebecca Paul have any sense.

You can watch live on Parliament TV from 2.30pm

The one from Plaid Cymru's not much better (I forget her name). I remember during the grilling they gave the Baroness, she took her to task because they're wasn't a rep from Wales on thebCommission and the Baroness, with great delight no doubt, informed her that was because the Welsh Government hadn't appointed one despite the Commission contacting them several times about it. 😂

She was to dimwitted to be embarrassed by her no nothingness. 😣

Honestly, it's like a compilation of all the worst TRA arguments from social media. It's a waste of an opportunity to ask well thought out questions about the code. I think MAS is an effective, articulate communicator, but you can detect her exasperation with these dimwits.

MAS: "I do understand and appreciate that, particularly for those people who have a GRC, that it must be a shock that the interpretation of the law that many had is not what the Supreme Court decided that the law was"

Well, this is going as expected. Poor MAS having to deal with this nonsense. Nadia Whittome is like a petulant toddler.
