So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

Please share this widely. There have been 13 peer-reviewed critiques of the Cass Review, to the extent that academia regards it as pseudoscience, but so far all have been subject to organised censorship by mainstream media. This is the first time one has broken through. Oz Guardian only still.
Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there.

I am sick to the back teeth of that 'poor, isolated and targeted' Peggie being all over the news. The new poster queen, she's loving it and lapping it up. Bigotry does pays it seems.
What about Beth?, she is the target here, we all have her in our thoughts and hope she is ok. #IStandWIthBeth

She went to a talk by Helen Joyce, bought her anti-trans book, and then recommended it on campus.
In the article she says, "I could also own Mein Kampf. It wouldn’t make me a Nazi."

Never before in the history of legal scholarship has there been such deep unhappiness about a case from the party that 'won' it.
No one can be surprised by the rank hypocrisy of Murdoch's 'Trump is a feminist hero' and 'Ending Roe v Wade was right' Times. But worth noting the difference between when it gets what it wants from the judiciary and when it doesn't.

There's been very little coverage in the British media of the employment tribunal ruling that found Sandie Peggie had harassed a woman
It's refreshing to see The National step up with fuller, more accurate reporting, shedding light on the realities of this case where most other outlets have failed

Excellent journalism from my colleague Xander Elliards, looking at the Sandie Peggie verdict and which parts of haven't received much media attention.
From Peggie harassing Dr Upton, to racist jokes and her evidence being deemed "not credible", there is a LOT.

I spoke in Parliament today to challenge the misinformation from those claiming this tribunal as a 'win' for the anti-trans agenda.
In fact it found Ms Peggie harassed a colleague for being trans, and it dismissed almost all her claims.
It also found that trans segregation is not supported in law.

We've written & published a short summary statement regarding the Sandie Peggie V NHS Fife Health Board employment tribunal case & the judgment given yesterday. Much of the media coverage has missed key information, the most important aspect being that all claims against Dr Beth Upton were dismissed
