they might argue GDPR? but no doubt, the power of redaction is being abused to all hell

one day maby, i strongly believe the system is self healing, but like all healing requires care and attention incase it heals wrong.

we must keep pushing for change, even when it looks like things are going backwards. Especially then.

2 steps forward, 1 step back is still 1 step forwards

They must be required to conform to a standard of care decided on by a pannel of experts at a national level and that is led by Trans people, and takes the international standards issued by WPATH (flawed though they are) into account.

or be struck off.

hopefully we then get some medical agency

i feel like this is a reason to use the channel tunnel now though x)

like challange myself to find the midpoint and see how much lawful peeing I can get done before i become a criminal pee-er

Fair! I have certain restrictions on me due to my job which compel me to be extra careful when it comes to stuff like this

so im gona walk the line, make is apparent to my co-workers, friends, family etc exactly how bad this guidance is

It aint over till they march up to my house, kick down the door and drag me off to the camps, even then i intend to make it as expensive as posible

deffo think the law hawks like GLP will be where this breaks, but thats not my field

so for me, i think a little malicious compliance is in the books

that is more likely yeah.

im just going on the rules of the house atm, trying to find an avenue of attack you know?

my thought is that 50 MPs is performative because of the majority maths

but KS's majority is 73...

if we could get maby another 30 MPs on side, then he might dump it sake of unity

what im trying to say and failing cos of the charicter limit is this:

i think baring a minor miracle on a PM/public realtions front, i think we have lost this specific fight, due to institutional capture

time to start thinking about non-comliance and how to get buisnesses to side with us on it

yes your correct its negative consent procedure

SoS puts it to HoC, then opponents have 40 sitting days to succusfully pass a bill striking it down, or it goes into effect.

thats what im trying to say, the political pressure required to force PM to say dont put to HoC is "will we lose this vote"

yeah, sadly i dont think its possible should the guidence reach the floor

which i think might be unstopable at this point, thus the EHRC silence, the bigots realised all they have to do is not seem like bigots till the 25th, then phillipson will start the 40 days

it needs be stopped before then

Is 50 MPs enough? that still leaves a tentative 349 MPs voting with the PM, assuming he dosent whip

by my inexpert count (Labour majority of 399) we still need another 23 MPs showing public support before this poses a threat to the passage of the bill, assuming the entire opposition votes it down..

Personally? i find being stabbed in the back by our elected officials harder than being stabbed in the front by them

At least thay way, i can see it comming, which is less stressful for me than not knowing when, how and why

but that is really small solace

who knows, but i certainly noticed when he got the fach-ie haircut a few years ago!

Fair, wont be yuck-ing your Yum there.

Personally, i dont find much solace in it, the takedown of the interim guidence, the news articles, the letters, it all just feels like political posturing by an equality minister trying to not seem like the bigot she is to win election, then pass it quietly

Did something change today? is there a piece of info im missing?

As far as im aware the transphobic guidence is still up for consideration in parliment, and once its placed before the house by the SoS, then a 40 day clock starts ticking, at the end of which its automatically accepted...

Honestly, speeking as an engineer, almost everything surrounding the crazy8s incident is just... totally bonkers x)

wow...

a group of 12 very privaliged people discussing people's right to exist without any oversight what so ever?

Thats concerning, but i wish i was surprised by it :/

(or they are hopefully just wasting tax payers money on a nice lunch or something)

is there a way to find out what they discussed? beyond a FOI?

Do we though?

Did it stop the Moselys of the world from trying to grabbing power, it dident stop him standing in the 1966 gen elec!

OM also wasent stopped from founding modern holocaust denial by BR's letter...

We have an acute problem. It requires acute solutions. Polite is nice, not required.
