So depressing to see a Labour MP push misinformation like this.
The judgment @kateosbornemp.bsky.social refers to is here: goodlawproject.org/wp-content/u....
Will she say which paragraph/s say “the EHRC’s draft code of practice got the law wrong”? No. Because none do.

Your claim that the judgment "confirms that the EHRC's draft code of practice got the law wrong" is categorically untrue.
The judgment is not even about the code of practice - it's about the interim update. Every single argument made against the interim update was dismissed by the judge.

On this day in 1981, #SoftCell released their debut studio album, "Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret".
The album's success was bolstered by the popularity of the cover version of #GloriaJones song "Tainted Love", which topped the charts worldwide and became the second best-selling British single of 1981.
