Ann Sinnott is asking for clarity on guidance for the Equality Act

[MilleniumHallsWalledGarden]

around the guidance for the Equality Act 2010, and is crowdfunding for a judicial review. Thought I ought to spread the word.

Agreed Aesopfable, I’m tired of these people, like the councils, backing down and then not actually doing anything to fix things.
Let’s get to court and have it out once and for all.

@334bu

Over 17 now. Bump!

Oh, excellent!

@littlbrowndog

I can’t donate. Am skint

But if my heart and soul counts. Am donatin* that

I'll happily donate twice, once for me and once for you littlbrowndog.

This is so important to all of us and our daughters and granddaughters.
I can't think of a better way to spend my money to be honest.
And there are other ways to 'contribute', sharing the link etc

Just contributed.

Also keeping a close eye on the forwomen scotland petition and will contribute to that if they need it. Fecking Scottish Government, hope they have their arses absolutely handed to them.

Bumping.

me too. Just linked an article from the Spectator on the very subject, to the Scotland Hate Crime thread

Thanks highame.

I find this all so enormously stressful. I don't think those pushing these agendas have any concept of the massive impact they are having on women's lives. My feelings of wellbeing are so low at the moment as a result of all this - not so much for me but for my children (and all children) who have to navigate this bizarre and discriminatory world.

Sorry - womens' lives I think? Not women's lives.

Apostrophe gurus can correct me...

Thanks for highlighting this - I've donated. Pretty broke, but I can't think of anything more important to protect the safety and dignity of me, my mum and my daughter in the future.
Good luck Ann, and thank you!

18 now just under 2 to go.

Bumping!

Hadn't seen this until just now, but have helped towards the target.

Thank You Ann for doing this for all of us.

Ugh. Just seen someone on Maya Forstater's twitter giving her an example of how the EA is meant to be interpreted regarding TW in women's spaces.

This cannot come quickly enough.

Now up to 18.3k. This is such an important case.

Done

I know exactly what you mean. I think of them as terrorists.

Less than fifteen hundred to go now. Scrutiny is on it's way!

19,001 now.

Just pledged, it's definitely going to get there way ahead of the deadline!

Bumpinggggg

When I first saw the 30 day deadline, my heart sank a bit thinking it would never get there.

Completely underestimated how many of us are pissed off at this! It sometimes feels like we're a little corner on the internet, the only people aware of what's happening. But it seems more and more people are waking up now, thank God.

Have dug. Nearly there!

So pleased this is getting the traction it deserves. I was a little worried when it first went up because policy and detail can be a little 'dry' it might not do as well as some other funders. It's this stuff that's so important though and it's great so many people recognise that.

I suppose it can seem dry, but Ann Sinnott replied to me earlier on twitter, & I felt all special

This one really is crucial; so much of the 'advice' disseminated to government organisations and commercial companies across the whole of the UK originated from the EHRC and the GEO.

They have 'quietly' changed things and deleted things; this is not good enough. They must be made to deliver correct advice and admit, loudly, that the previous guidance was unlawful. They must contact everyone who has used their advice and tell them they were wrong and it must be discarded.

Only then will people begin to wake up.

Agree, very loudly and very clearly.
