Nottingham Council thinks pregnancy isn’t a protected characteristic but paternity is

[LoobiJee]

Thought this might merit its own thread, for any Nottingham residents.

Nottingham Council’s EDI Strategy (pg 5) lists “maternity and paternity” as the protected characteristic instead of the actual EA2010 protected characteristic which is “pregnancy and maternity”.

Thanks for this thread. I'm going to see my local councillors today. This is useful info.

Nottingham City have updated their edi strategy document to say "pregnancy and maternity".

They are Part of the stonewall diversity champions scheme according to that doc. I wonder if that influenced their recent dodgy decision making regarding Julie Bindel.
