As with the earlier Liz Truss tweet that launched an avalanche of over the top articles in an number of news papers about her attack on trans rights, the publicising of her letter has got Pink News screaming about how it is an attack on trans rights.
It is very noticeable how every time women's rights are written or spoken about as being needed, trans activists immediately say it is transphobic. What does that reveal about what they actually think. It implies to me their intention is to erase women.
Quote from article:
In an email to PinkNews, Baroness Nicholson said that she wrote to Liz Truss about the Equality Act because her stance is that it’s being “deliberately mangled”.
“If you look up my correspondence with the health minister, my question is on the misuse of the 2010 Act,” she said. “I see this as a deliberate attempt to foil parliament’s careful wording by spreading false information far and wide.
“I very strongly disapprove of such illegal tactics whereby hospitals, which are exempt from the 2010 Act, are given apparently mandatory ‘guidelines’ instructing their administration to accept self-ID patients as of law.
“This is justified by filleting the act’s clear statement in schedule 23 of the act; taking out words and concluding a different meaning to that clearly stated in legal wording in the act.
“This wholesale destruction of law has been promoted through many government departments. As a legislator I am objecting and will continue to explain why what has been stated is not the case at all.”
“The Equality Act 2010 has been misquoted,” she added. “The act has been changed and represented in a different set of meanings.”
The rest of the article is all about Liz Truss conspiring against trans people and a certain person from Mermaids saying how scandalous it is, just like Section 28 blah, blah.
