Keeping up the act of being a virtue-signalling liberal while assisting state transphobia as a spearhead for Heritage Foundation style ultra-conservative patriarchal theocracy, seems to be becoming increasingly difficult. #EHRC #WESC

Would you accept a trans person on the board?

"Yes, if they were suitably qualified"

Falkner must have had something more important to do than account for the EHRC before Parliament. "Because I wasn't told that it would stretch" isn't really a reason is it? #EHRC #WESC

This article. Watching the Guardian trying to be the reasonable, liberal branch of "gender criticality" AND interpret what happened in the WESC session with Falkner is like watching a snake trying to swallow a live crocodile. #EHRC #WESC @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social

#EHRC #WESC #TransRights I rushed out some first thoughts about yesterday's Women and Equalities Select Committee Q & A session with Baroness Falkner. Apologies if there are any typos. I will fix them later as I have stuff to do today.

**Falkner**:  I think proportionality we we don't we don't play a numbers game at EHRC. We're there to defend nine protective characteristics and we do so without fear or favor. But sometimes you'll find us concentrating on one particular protected characteristic versus another and that's a necessary function of small resources and a small organization. So so it's not in our perspective, it's not the numbers that are relevant although as I've said earlier sex covers the entire population of the country and here we're talking about the impact on 8,464 people who hold GRCs. I think the important principle is that strategic litigation and picking and choosing where there is a change that will have ripple effects in terms of a ruling that comes down and changes things is where we spend our resources best.  And I think that when we do strategic litigation and we do it regularly, we do it all the time, we've just done an important other case on religion and philosophical belief called Higgs versus Farmer School, that was the court of appeal, that we do that with the intention that a particular case will have an impact beyond the circumstances of one or two individuals and that's what we tend to concentrate on. I don't know if that answers your question but I wasn't quite clear what the question was.

Ripple effect. #WESC #EHRC

What is the "strategic" "ripple effect" that is supposed to go beyond the 8000 or so people to whom the ruling was supposed to apply. Why does she talk about the SC ruling as though it in itself might have a strategic purpose?

Falkner can stay till 16:30. Where does she need to be that is more important than here? #WESC #EHRC

#EHRC Falkner makes the point that I have been making for a long time. Trans rights are strategic and she uses the word "ripple effect." Annihilating trans rights is a sprat to catch a mackerel. #WESC

Falkner cannot share who #EHRC is getting legal advice from to #WESC. Totally unacceptable.

Falkner says neither women nor trans women have won rights by what the EHRC / ScC has done, but there is a hidden presence at the table that has won and whom none will mention - organised religion. #EHRC #WESC

#EHRC #WESC someone has picked up that EHRC offered guidance at the same time the EHRC said check with your lawyers. They almost get it that the EHRC is stirring the legal pot to generate law suits so the EHRC can steer the law in a more religious authoritarian direction.
