Clear as always from Ben.

Clear and sound.

frustrating that it even needs to be written… IANAL and I could have pretty much written that 😜

Very clear.
Hopefully the MoJ, Home Office and other organisations who have been in thrall to trans extremist groups will now be preparing their reverse ferrets and getting these men out of women's prisons before anyone has to take a legal case.

Quite.

Dear sirs.

Please find below the bleeding obvious.

Love and kisses

Ben

I think the day I hear all male prisoners are being held in the male estate is the day I'll feel the madness is finally over.

Thank you Ben and Myles. This is a generous gesture from men who could charge so much for this work but have chosen not to do so to protect vulnerable women. Thank you

Thanks for the link, the article links to another one by Janice Turner

"Traumatised, mainly low-risk women are confined, with no possible escape, among high-risk, violent men. Downview has even scrapped a rule whereby these males were guarded one-to-one at all times. The CCJS report, by Ben Cooper KC and Myles Grandison, a prison law expert, points out that while these trans prisoners are approved for Downview case by case, there is no parallel assessment of the history and mental health of each woman expected to be incarcerated among them. That only male feelings matter is discrimination."

It's time to start suing or referring them to the Haig

"The principle that women be incarcerated separately from men began 200 years ago with Elizabeth Fry and is enshrined in the Geneva Convention."

So well articulated and clear.
