She reminds me a lot of Suella Braverman; not just implementing evil policies, but clearly enjoying it too.

...isn't this the exact opposite of the argument he was just making? Different facilities are segregation, different treatment, and an automatic disadvantage, but also *not* different treatment, but simply mirrored treatment, whichever happens to suit his needs at the time?

According to the documentary "The Usual Suspects", this means your dog is in fact a criminal mastermind. Sorry to be the one to break it to you. Maybe she'll cut you in on her profits, though.

Sounds like FWS round 2, then.

I'm not convinced even that creates any real problems. The Interpretation Act 1978 says that "unless the contrary intention appears...words importing the feminine gender include the masculine". I'm sure SCUK would argue that the contrary intention does appear, but that's just circular logic.

The government's explanatory notes explicitly state the purpose of the EA as giving effect to several EU directives. That includes the Equal Treatment directive, which both EU and UK courts have found requires sex discrimination law to be understood as trans inclusive.

Why did you think it was appropriate to talk about a trans child having no experience of life as a cis adult? Would you apply the same standard to a gay child? Do you recognise that "how do you know you're gay if you haven't tried being straight" is homophobic? Why would you apply that logic to us?

Why were trans people and experts in our care considered too biased to participate, but multiple members of SEGM were not? If relevant expertise was a source of bias, why was Kaltiala involved? Why are the identities of most contributors still secret? How can we trust such a clearly biased process?

Why is psychotherapy the first line of treatment for gender dysphoria despite no evidence whatsoever of efficacy? Why is low quality, conflicting evidence that it *may* help with depression sufficient to recommend it for all patients, when higher quality, consistent evidence for PBs/HRT is not?

She doesn't even think her actual positions are wrong! Just her attempts to reach out to the people who hate us and want us dead.

I also feel like "more extreme on democracy and the rule of law" is actually the key issue here? If they get their way on those, none of their other stated positions matters a damn, because they can do whatever the hell they like.

I actually agree that it'd make a great story in the vein of Mr Bates, but I'm guessing their angle might be just a little bit different to my own.
