International students avoiding the US, so this is a golden moment for the UK to swoop in and attract the best. Time to ditch nonsense 'net migration' targets. We need to give British universities the energy and dynamism they've been starved of under the Tories.

I was incredibly sad to read about today’s ruling but hugely warmed by the amount of love & support that I have seen for the LGBTQ+ community.

To get one thing straight, as I think will be coming clear to people in the UK this morning, that Supreme court decision doesn't just disadvantage women who are trans, it also disadvantages *all* women. We can now be questioned as to our gender, wherever, by whoever. Probably in whatever way.

Putting the trans community front and centre of the problems of the world has certainly taken the heat off cis male predators - no wonder so many of them are so supportive of the anti trans movement
A message for everyone but in particular for trans and non binary followers - let us fight against dehumanisation

Quite an important bit of context on the Equality Act sex and gender ruling today (taken from the press summary rather than the judgment proper, as it’s much more succinct – but it flags the relevant pars in the judgment at the end):
![Protection from Discrimination
This interpretation of the EA 2010 does not remove protection from trans people, with or
without a GRC. Trans people are protected from discrimination on the ground of gender
reassignment. They are also able to invoke the provisions on direct discrimination and
harassment, and indirect discrimination on the basis of sex. In the light of case law interpreting
the relevant provisions, a trans woman can claim sex discrimination because she is perceived
to be a woman. A certificated sex reading is not required to give this protection [248]-[263].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:iriguxga3a3ngc4ezfk56knk/bafkreieb4piyl2zwqzwhti5ucy6dca4shwxxegvhlgewvoajpnw2pwvxfu@jpeg)

No trans people were consulted on this decision that only affects trans people. In fact trans people were actively barred from consulting on this decision that only affects trans people. But transphobic bigots? Oh they got consulted for days.

The UK Supreme Court has unanimously decided that the definition of sex under the Equality Act 2010 refers solely to biological sex, and does not include people with a Gender Recognition Certificate.

We'd urge people not to panic - there will be lots of commentary coming out quickly that is likely to deliberately overstate the impact that this decision is going to have on all trans people's lives. We'll say more as soon as we're able to. Please look out for yourselves and each other today 💗🏳️⚧️

regardless of today’s outcome, it is morally indefensible to have a court ruling on something that affects a population, using evidence and findings that did not consult a single member of that population.
