The best thing that happened to him was him being arrested at the airport a few days before this trial began.

The pitiful media and political backlash to that has got him off (for the most part) on this case too.

Also made sure to degender her further by removing any mention of “Ms Brooks”.

Arguably made it worse on the “biological” part.

Before it was at least recognising her as a trans woman.

Now the “biological male” part comes before “identifies as a woman” (that wasn’t there before) to give it more prominence as well as make it sound like being trans is all make believe.

“Ms Brooks, who was 18 at the time, is a trans woman who was born a biological male.”

Aside from the gross last part of this BBC News sentence, wasn’t she 17 at the time?

Leaking the guidance for it to be published online 3 hours before and in the papers for Trans Day of Remembrance.

How very calculated.

Probably on December 24th to stop us having any joy over Christmas.

I’m sorry that happened. It’s completely unacceptable and also just weird from her, as we’re in the UK and we don’t even really use “sir” and “madam” in most customer service settings. So needless.

Both her and Rebecca Paul (the two GCs in the room) have asked softball questions that have given her the opportunity to big herself up.

That is telling in itself.

Yep, a BBC Sport presenter not allowed an opinion on “contentious” issues, but an actual BBC News presenter is allowed to “correct” the autocue by inserting her OWN opinion live on the BBC over an issue the BBC also deem contentious.

The hypocrisy will always be off the chart there.

Nice of the BBC to not only keep paying her at Wimbledon but also giving her an opportunity last week to spread her anti-trans sentiment in those supposedly serious long form interviews they do for TV.

Yeah, the LTA is infected with GCs. They were banning a trans woman coach from using the women’s changing rooms and toilets at their facilities long before the Supreme Court ruling.

They cited it was their policy and emailed her name out to other employees to help police it.

A poll on Mumsnet probably.

Evening Standard even called it out in their last paragraph of the review...

I note the colours missing from their Pride graphic 🏳️‍⚧️

I don't know much about their PM, but the story I've seen suggests it is their deputy PM from a coalition who has proposed a bill to define gender by biological sex. His party is New Zealand First.

Apparently it is unlikely to pass as it has to be selected at random and then get majority support.

All of this past week has been a bit too perfect in timing for Labour, allowing cover/reason to align with Trump and co to get some kind of weak trade deal.
