The UK is the only Council of Europe state to have acquired a “bathroom law” by accident, apparently not a single state (inc UK) introduced one intentionally, so I’m not entirely sure what the point is here.
24/ He says there is an issue of competing rights, the article 8/14 right of the trans person and the article 8/14 rights of others to use toilets. And he argues there is no consensus within the member states of the Council of Europe. Therefore, there is a wide margin of appreciation.

He has in fact just highlighted one of the reasons why the Supreme Court is wrong, has legislated from the bench, or both. 🙁
26/ He says, at the time, the GRA was an anticipated legislative regime, and EWCA suggested it might provide an answer to the question of when a change in sex occurs.
He says we now know, according to SC, that the GRA does not change sex under the Equality Act either, so: “Croft is a distraction”.

Looks like it to me. Is there a clever ploy here that I can’t see because the alternative is that they are genuinely mad with this banana logic? (Or of course it could be a stitch up like the FWS case). . .

Has he admitted the EA, according to the SC, was written to end the rights afforded by Croft, Goodwin, GRA etc. meaning ministers had knowingly and deliberately misled the European Council at the time of royal ascent?

Its heartening to see so many people help share ava Cordero’s story. I want to thank everyone who shared liked and saved this post
"One of the first people to make public allegations against now-deceased billionaire child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was Ava Cordero, a transgender Latina woman. Cordero, a model, was transphobically mocked in the media after she filed an October 2007 lawsuit"
When a trans woman first accused Jeffrey Epstein of rape, the media mocked her - LGBTQ Nation
The New York Post called her a "man" and a "gender-bend shocker."

Is this (and 24/) as batshit as it reads?
According to the EHRCs idiot lawyer we have no right to use a toilet - but that non right competes with a right for a cis person to use a toilet.
If it doesnt exist how can it compete? Its a completely nonsensical proposition.

One of my rather lame 😛 proposed grounds for judicial review was that the EHRC had failed to carry out its duty to monitor the effectiveness of our HR & Eq Acts, as Emily noted below.
I would say that Tom Cross KC more than fulfilled that duty today by highlighting all the existing inefficacy.

What if - and hear me out on this - we had some kind of Commission who's job it was to continually monitor the efficacy of our human rights & equalities laws, and immediately flag when they are falling short.
We could call it the Human Rights and Equalities Commission.

2/ I missed the first hour of the hearing. I understand Alex Goodman KC addressed the human rights grounds.
Tom Cross KC, representing the EHRC, largely argued that the law itself is transphobic, and that the guidance accurately reflected this transphobia.
