Thanks :)

Now that is an interesting article. More power to her elbow!

She really does have all the right credentials to be Chair of the EHRC and certainly sounds free of bias whereas David Isaacs most definitely wasn't

DoubleTweenQueen · 14/02/2022 09:23

I hope she doesn't falter, or the EHRC waiver and n any way.
The abuse and legal challenge the EHRC is up against is appalling, but I worry it will have some effect.
The EHRC need to be incredibly strong to withstand the backlash, and hopefully those attacking it will self combust, if it does.

Yeah I think EHRC has had thei4 blue tick taken of them on twitter

DoubleTweenQueen · 14/02/2022 09:31

Ah, Twitter blue ticks. Funny that LGB groups have no blue ticks, yet LGBT groups have a fair few. Stonewall has a shiny blue tick.
Would love to see the criteria for a blue tick.
It's a nonsense.

Thank you for the link. EHRC seems to be in good hands.

Abunchofyellowroses · 14/02/2022 09:34

Clear and informative article; thank you for posting OP.

Stopped and strip-searched at an airport for having a novel in your bag. Yes, that would probably open your eyes a bit about human rights.

Apparently the EHRC never had one.

So they never asked and the (private US) company's computer program did not generate one.

In real life its the same as the Times not giving it a gold print ink or gold star.
So many blue star accounts claim to have been hacked (Twitter verified some as actual events) or having been run by the (now sacked) intern, these days the seal of approval is worth less than what it says on the tin.🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks solas. Good information

Letterasaurus · 14/02/2022 11:52

Thanks for posting. She appears keen to ensure that the law (not Stonewall law) is followed, which means all protected characteristics have equal protection.

And, what, she's the epitome of a Hateful Bigot?

Right.

Am i in the upside down?
