Oh bring it on!

In December 2025, the Labour Party discriminated against me by barring me from a space where I was once welcome - the National Women’s Conference.

The Party claims that this is due to the Supreme Court judgment (FWS v SGM). I believe the Labour Party has been badly misinformed by their lawyers

I don't think it's the Labour Party who has been misinformed as to what the FWS judgment means

"I never imagined that I would be the one embarking on this epic journey..."

Checking in at fwr to see if a thread and not disappointed. Stephanie’s willing to go all the way to Strasbourg apparently 😂. I’m
interested to see how the crowdfunder goes. The TRAs are not known for splashing their cash around.

There's nothing in the Supreme Court judgment to say that Labour have to resist this and to fight it to win. They could settle and reward SR with a non-court decided win in order to avoid being seen to be opposing genderism.

For nearly a year, the Labour government has witnessed the chaos the Supreme Court judgment has caused: likely suicides, certainly suicide attempts, trans people outed at work, trans women and girls expelled from Girlguiding, and volunteers quitting in protest

His hyperbole is outstandingly crass. I hope they laugh him out of court.

An "award-winning feminist". Yegods.

Note that he is nowhere near the GLP. Will the fox botherer feel slighted, I wonder.

@nauticant makes a very good point. BP might be delighted to have another gossamer thin excuse to advocate for special men in womens' spaces.

Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs.

True dat. One the one had, I think, what fun, bring the popcorn on, but it'll be interesting to see the LP's reaction.

An "award-winning feminist". Yegods.
Yeah, that was my thought too.
Award winning for campaigning to get men into women's spaces? Super.

'likely suicides' is a phrase thats not going to stand up in court...

And then they can sit back and watch the queue for money handouts grow.

Which award?

Also found the crowd finder ('Justice for Steph') if anyone interested. Of course the profile pic is a head tilt-and-smirk jobbie.

I assume the fundraising period is 30 days? If so, 5 days in and Steph has £1.5k of the £25k first target. The first donation is £300 with no name can't imagine where it came from.

🍿🤣

Another man who can't take No for an answer. 🤯

When it's not their money, and there's no accountability, it's always surprising how reckless people can be.

One issued by Translucent?

This is good news. Having the evidence scrutinised and out in the open is really what is needed with all of this stuff. Bring on the sunlight! 😎

I hope Richards doesn't use the legal experts at the Good Law Practice for her case. That would be awful.

His case.

What would that look like? SR can hardly claim much in money terms. Settling would (presumably) involve reversing the policy and letting TiMs vote at next year’s women’s conference. That was something the party’s legal advisers said would be unlawful, so a settlement would mean acting contrary to their own legal advice which they followed to avoid legal action from this side.

SR is going to have to argue that the LP didn’t even have the lawful discretion to refuse to allow TiMs to vote; that’s a tough row.

who are his legal advisors?
