Dennis Kavanagh has posted a helpful thread on Twi/X explaining just why this is such a big deal.

I've lost track - remind me what they are appealing?

IwantToRetire · 16/02/2024 17:26

Thanks for the links which I have now read.

So although the original case was in Scotland the JR is in the UK High Court so the outcome will impact UK wide ... ?

And will the decision on the definition of the word woman be in relation to the EA only (the original case was about representation on Boards if I remember correctly) and / or on the GRA ... ?

Either way the outcome could be huge.

I was one of those who questioned why they had started this legal action because that a court couldn't overturn (however mad it was) how the law was written eg the phrase "for all purposes" which is why the SSE had to be created.

But if the intended end route was the UK High Court, well that was / is a long and expensive route, but could leap frog over the UK Parliament putting on the back burner the outcome (or lack of) to the two petitions re the definitions of sex in the EA.

This is surely a slam dunk? The Kool aid gang can wibble all they like (and no doubt will) about gender, but sex is, er, sex? (and before anyone starts, you can fuck off with your clownfish-we are not fish)

Nordensost · 16/02/2024 20:07

Utterly fabulous news!

Our allotment needs a great deal of TLC over the next few months so we shall enjoy digging up our plot along with many other friendly neighbours.

At half six it was £2275 at half eight it's at £6275!
