The thing to understand is no compromise would be enough for the GCs.
It is not enough that they are allowed to exclude trans people from single-sex spaces. Everyone else must be forced to do so. It is not enough that they are allowed to speak their views. Everyone else must be forced to listen.

Reform is pursuing the same anti-science playbook as the administration in the US, presenting a narrative in which scientific consensus on such things as vaccines and climate change is challenged and undermined. Essential that this is challenged in media - and in schools.
A timely reminder that Farage’s Reform party also embrace some of the anti-vaccine rhetoric Trump and RFKJr have been leading.
Third of Reform UK’s council leaders have expressed vaccine-sceptic views
Health minister decries criticism of vaccinations by heads of four authorities as ‘dangerous and utterly irresponsible’

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.
