Oh the EHRC are suddenly feeling shy! Come on now, you recommended this change to the law in 2023 and intervened supportively in the supreme court case but you don't want any of the credit?
Bit late now to just be neutrally enforcing the law isn't it...

Previous panics around queer people being in gendered spaces, especially the moral panic about lesbians in women's spaces. Seeing that it was the same tropes and myths being deployed is important.
Don't have a proper source for it, but kept this on file as a neat window into some of this:

Going through some old EHRC papers, I notice that when they were arguing for leaving trans people out of the (ditched) conversion therapy ban, they went to great lengths to argue that the consultation on the ban should be 12 weeks instead of the 6 given by gov. What changed for them I wonder? 🙄
![Image of consultation response document reading: "Nor does the consultation address the possible need to consider a differentiated approach in relation to sexual orientation and being transgender so as to ensure, in particular, that clinicians and therapists are not prohibited from providing appropriate care and support for individuals with gender dysphoria. Given the documented lack of evidence about conversion therapy in relation to being transgender, recent attention and litigation on the implications of medical and surgical transition, and the ongoing NHS-commissioned independent review of gender identity services for children and young people led by Dr Hilary Cass OBE, we consider that these matters require further careful and detailed consideration before legislative proposals are finalised and the implications of them can be fully understood.
[With added highlight:] In light of the significant potential implications of the proposals for individuals, organisations and a number of pieces of current legislation, and their impact on a range of fundamental rights under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) which cannot be properly considered in the absence of detailed legislative proposals, we were concerned that the original consultation period was limited to six, rather than the usual 12 weeks."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:62rr2covgwmli2eydyurwqfa/bafkreicnuqot4mcbl4ufnak7ked7oxeecdcrf4f2jg57jfwsvazwqkmlqi@jpeg)

EHRC have confirmed to me that they will not be publishing the responses to the consultation on their segregation plan. Just a report setting out the number and 'qualitative themes' of responses - allowing them to spin their own narrative with no transparency! Completely unacceptable.
