ForwomenScot have been granted permission for a Judicial Review of the Gender Representation on Public Boards Act 2018.

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

This is excellent news. For those of you unaware, the Scottish Government legislated that there had to be equal number of men and women on boards. Of course, they defined women as including men, so For Women Scotland applied for, and have been granted, a judicial review.

Spades out!

Lies and liars

Scottish Trans Alliance do not represent women's interests, but they quite evidently think we are stupid

So sure of their argument they don't let anyone reply nice.
Not surprising that they appear to be strangers to the truth as they , only a couple of weeks ago, had to apologise to a Government Committee for misrepresention.

What was that about 33

So frustrating that For Women Scot are facing this additional hurdle from Engender. And so unfair that the latter are government-funded - paid to undermine women's rights - while For Women Scot have to find the extra costs themselves. Access to justice enabled for one group and disabled for another. Wonder why that might be?

This is such an important case, particularly coming after Johann Lamont's passionate insistence on 'sex not gender'. And in the face of a shocking response by various misogynists: twitter.com/ForwomenScot/status/1337153665686245377

Hope that people are out and about with their shovels. twitter.com/ForwomenScot for more information (including digging opportunities)

This is a massively important case. I will dig.

In court on January 7th.

Thanks for the nudge. I followed the Twitter link and donated. They need another £19k.
