There's an explanation of the key differences (including much larger corpora & multilingual analysis in #wmatrix version 7) here: ucrel-wmatrix7.lancaster.ac.uk If you are a #wmatrix V5 user, then you should save your data and reload it into the new version. V5 is expected to be retired next month.

Er, no - this is long-standing Green Party policy, e.g. from the 2015 General Election manifesto (page 7):
“Respect immigrants for the contribution they make and control immigration fairly.”
Zack is just really good at articulating Green Party policy.

The 2019 Labour manifesto included a pledge to "Ensure that the single-sex-based exemptions contained in the Equality Act 2010 are understood and fully enforced in service provision." Which was plainly a dog whistle for exactly what the EHRC is doing right now.
