New Legal case?
A 'Gender Critical' ideologue posing as an 'academic' has threatened a UK university with judicial review unless it withdraws its trans inclusion policy. This is part of a growing pattern of 'lawfare' - use of repetitive, exhausting legal threats to pressure institutions into

Twat Tory-Boy from the Torygraph continues to cook a nothing-burger. Corrections are perfectly normal, esp so in very long, thorough rulings. It’s only high profile because of the hue & cry raised by organised bigotry as they are now losing… in many rulings, minor errors don’t even get a mention.

The exclusion of trans people from public and academic spaces, removal of protections by human rights institutions, dehumanising language used by state news media, judicial tolerance of trans directed hate crime, withdrawal of medical care: all of this is very familiar to genocide scholars.

Interesting piece.
The points about human rights/EU law have force. But for me, the central problem with the FWS judgment is more fundamental. It strikes me as implausible that this is what Parliament intended, without spelling it out, only 6 years after the GRA, and in an Act dealing with equality.

So much of the commentary on the FWS judgment has been driven by reflexive responses to the outcome, but there are so many gaps and leaps in its reasoning that it will spawn litigation for years to come - @aoifemod.bsky.social and I flag some failings in judge craft:

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.
