Sandie Peggie and her supporters may being claiming victory in her Tribunal case but it is at best a very minor win and may well prove to be a pyrrhic victory for the GC brigade as the judgement demolishes many of their arguments for excluding trans people.

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

So the court found that this was a grift. The scenario, was avoidable if communicated clearly with their employer, but Sandie Peggie took steps to fabricate a situation where she could protest her beliefs on when alone with Dr Upton, with no other witnesses around, waiting for her to leave a cubical

NHS Fife’s handling of the dispute between Peggie and Dr Upton was an absolute dumpster fire but Dr Beth Upton should have cause to celebrate.

Pretty embarrassing and damning response to the evidence @MForstater (@SexMattersOrg) provided in the Sandie Peggie tribunal.
As we’ve always said: Anti-trans ideology and arguments rely heavily on anecdote, opinion and misinformation over hard evidence, as demonstrated here.

This is the first headline I’ve seen on this case that actually centres Beth Upton. All the others I’ve seen so far say things like “Partial Victory for Sandie Peggie” which is biased and misleading.
'After two years of being subject to relentless criticism which saw her attacked on the front pages of leading newspapers and talked about incessantly on social media, Dr. Beth Upton has been cleared on all counts.'

Sandie Peggie: I can't really think of an example of anything else recently where the media has so misrepresented what actually happened? It's not "clever" language, it's not even what happened with Israel. It's just incorrect.
Like it does feel like a bit of an escalation.

#C4News went above & beyond, reporting:
"a nurse has won a harassment claim against Dr Beth Upton."
No she didn't. NHS FIFE harassed her, not Upton.
This is almost defamatory, & they mentioned none of the dismissed parts or the implications for trans women in SS spaces. I complained to Ofcom.

You know, infuriating and a shameful betrayal though the BBC and other media's misreporting of the Sandie Peggie judgment is, it also doesn't really matter.
What matters is the judgment which lawyers will read, use to advise their clients, and inclusion will be the winner.

It’s maddening that I just heard this tribunal decision covered on BBC News, which led with “Sandie Peggie wins her case,” expanded with “Sandie Peggie secures a partial victory,” then only on listening further did it become clear she actually lost on most of the substantive points she was pursuing.
