That's good news. Good luck, Maya

oh that has cheered me up

thank you Maya, this can't be easy. you are doing something amazing

Good luck Maya

Whoop!

Thank you Maya. I hope for better judgment this time.

This is cheering news! Thank you, Maya, for your courage. It can't be easy. I hope you know how many people are behind you. You're a

Excellent news. Thank you Maya. You're an Amazon.

Cool. Got my trowel, dug a bit.

Go Maya.

Good. People shouldn't be forced to pretend they believe in genderism.

YES! (shovel at ready)! I was afraid it would take longer. Hopefully the response will be timely. I hope the judge who decides whether to let it go forward (how could they not, you'd think) can tell men apart from women.

I keep thinking "surely the truth will prevail?" and that this nonsense will one day be over - of us having to be untruthful or face sacking/police interviews/hate incidents against our names/banning from social media etc etc - but it still seems a long way off.

We're all having to walk on eggshells on Mumsnet of all places, CentreParcs have fallen and allowed a male-bodied TW into the open-plan women's changing area, the CPS are doing something very scary in our schools - surely freedom of speech and thought and belief HAS to prevail - doesn't it??

Good luck Maya and thank you

Good luck Maya. It seemed like the judge couldn't get his head around the distinction between sex and gender. The whole discussion of intersex people was a bizarre & confusing tangent that has no relevance to transgenderism.

Hoping for a judge with some bloody common sense.

Splendid news
Go Maya!

Good luck, Maya, & THANK YOU x

So glad she is going on to appeal. The initial tribunal decision didn't make sense. Hey ho, hey ho.. wanders off carrying spade...

Humbled by your tenacity Maya. Much admiration and good luck.

Excellent.

I hope Maya has lots of support around her. It can't be easy.

Really useful contribution by leading employment /discrimination QC Karon Monaghan mobile.twitter.com/k21fem/status/1221080681473888256

Thanks justicewomen. I'm so pleased to hear this!

Excellent news. Solidarity, Maya! Good luck.

Go Maya, you bloody legend!

Quaffy re With my employment lawyer’s hat on....legally it wasn’t a good judgment in my opinion.

Is there any chance a judge would purposely make a judgement that could be questioned, and appealed against in order to create more visibility through conflict?

justicewomen that twitter thread was brilliant - IANAL and it all made sense. What a brilliant writer to make legalise accessible.
