The Times simply lies. And lies. And lies again.
With characteristic intellectual dishonesty, The Times, and Geraldine Scott, having come to us for quote have deliberately omitted most of what we said in response. Compare and contrast. 2/2
!["In our legal system the working out in subsequent cases of the consequences of a final court of appeal decision is entirely routine. It is extraordinary that a KC should seek to delegitimise that process. The inconvenient truth is that both Ms Reindorf and The Times chose to ignore what the Supreme Court actually said, and I quote from paragraph 248, 'this interpretation [does] not have the effect of disadvantaging or removing important protection under the EA 2010 from trans people'."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xurjtu2wa2akyi64gab34ahg/bafkreigieffwg3q3anocydvsneiv2wfbwhr4m3zskjo4l7e72ovxhpouem@jpeg)

Sneering at questions about canceling elections tells us exactly how seriously this administration takes democracy.
Q: Americans for generations have fought and died for democracy. Are you saying the president finds the idea of canceling elections funny?
