Pressed post too fast! I meant to add that it's all public bodies that seem to be leaving so far. The private sector will follow suit at some point when they have to consider reputational damage. I would think Stonewall going after the EHRC might have an impact.

That is great news, thank you!

Yes!

Anyone got a share token? I think I need to subscribe, the Times are very good in this area.

Wrong thread, sorry.

Hurrah.

I think as point of principle no part of the legislature should be a member of scheme run by any lobby group whatever their focus.

I agree Chaz. It seems rather bloody obvious to me.

Has anyone heard of Inclusive Employers? They may be taking the place of Stonewall, but a look at their glossary shows they are of the same ilk as Stonewall ie conflating sex and gender.

👏👏👏👏

Yes, the name is irrelevant, it's the content that matters. I don't want public money or the BBC money spent on error.

Brilliant news.
