Update from Maya Forstater:

"I have received the "remedy" judgement in my case.
@cgdev has been ordered to pay over £100k in compensation for loss of earnings, injury to feelings and aggravated damages for their high-handed conduct.
Thank-you to everyone who supported my case"

Too bad MN doesn't allow one to retroactively edit posts.

You're right, I'm afraid the euphoria is addling me.

Easily done, to be fair. Same three letters. Different order.

And similarly shocking performance at ET by their senior staff.

And similarly shocking performance at ET by their senior staff.

Indeed. The failings of Maya's ex employers have been shown for precisely what they are in this judgement. The performances by senior staff at GCC in Allison's case were eye wateringly embarrassing. Stonewall of course covered themselves in glory with their contingent of support staff for those demanding Allison's punishment.
It was a glorious spectacle!

RealityFan · 30/06/2023 20:44

You know, in any sane world, our senior politicians would actively highlight such ground breaking verdicts. To signal state and government satisfaction with such outcomes, and to signal to wider society that there can be no more harassment and humiliation of citizens across the land with GC views.

I'd have expected the same when race discrimination and legalising of same sex laws were enacted. When organisations that tried to continue hateful and prejudicial practices were defeated in court, politicians, lawyers, and professionals and artists across the country rose up as one to say that the law would protect POC and gays, and that recidivists would not be tolerated, the law had spoken.

Today? Will we see Sunak and the govt, or Starmer and Labour, or the SNP, the LimpDumbs, or Greens, the Law Society, high profile actors, artists, academics, come out to say that in case after case (Maya here, Sex Matters last week, Alison Bailey and Julie Bindel in the past, hopefully LGBA next month), the law is speaking louder and louder, and the days of muzzling gender critical views (the mainstream view amongst elites until 5 mins ago and still the mainstream view amongst the mainstream) is OVER!

Will we heck!

I think this judgement is so important and amazing, but there's still another hurdle....

So, it's a protected characteristic to hold these views.

It's a protected characteristic to express these views, as Maya did.

The next step though is ensuring that it is perfectly legal and WORIADS to enforce policies in all areas of life that exclude men, including trans women, from female spaces. That seems to be the final and most difficult hurdle.

I personally do not understand why it is so hard.

Twitter is still full of activists demanding Starmer censure Rosie Duffield.

Can you patch in a link?

the Law Society

If it helps with the rage at all, realityfan, legal and employment law orgs will be disseminating this next week as they do with all significant cases.

Most of the numpties you mentioned don't read any of that though.

GrrrrAReform · 30/06/2023 21:01

Bloody brilliant news. Maya you're an absolute saviour!

RealityFan · 30/06/2023 21:12

Some preposterousness going on.

Accusations that Rosie organising a pile on, that UK economy will lose visitors and investment, that no trans will ever come forward to be in a campaign, that the fate of the trans here will befall other minorities incl gay, autistic, disabled.

Oh yes, and that Rosie should be sacked and pilloried in public.

Has a movement ever been so passive aggressive?

Passive as in the members are all on the verge of mass suicide and mass ethnic cleansing.

Aggressive as in the calls for all dissent, dissenters and most of all, the most vocal female dissenters (Rosie, JKR, Jo Cherry etc), to be silenced and cast out.

The voices are getting shriller, the shouts are getting more grating.

Who would have predicted that angry cross dressing men would become the left's biggest social justice priority in the 2020s?

Raising a glass to celebrate Maya's victory 🥂

That’s brilliant! Congratulations Maya.

Could you imagine Harold Wilson or Jim Callaghan championing Dick Emery, or Tony Blair having the Little Britain team's backs?

Ramblingnamechanger · 30/06/2023 23:20

So pleased to have been crowdfunding for Maya, well worth every penny to see this nonsense countered. Well done indeed and thank you

Congratulations and thanks for your heroic work, Maya.

Fantastic! Though this should never have happened in the first place!

And it should never have had to take so long to get the situation redressed. Does anyone know what happened with legal costs?

Amazing news, I'm delighted for her
