You are not on the right side of history however much you think you are.It's just an extraordinary yawn, isn't it? "The law says this, therefore we must obey it..."I would just say @Cyclefree is well respected and entitiled to publish on a subject she has views on, no matter how controversialI assure you that marrying a trans woman was a better education - and a great deal more fun - than you will ever experience, my middle-of-nowhere-dwelling, suburbanite, car-obsessed, bootlicking chum. Don't you have a retail park to be driving to, or an illegal war to be justifying?Why PB feels the need to publish TERF bilge is byeond me.Maybe you should get better educated and listen to Cyclefree then?
You make a fair and interesting response, and so much better than trying to close down debate
And I am sure we wish @Cyclefree all the best in her serious health battle
For most of British history, homosexuality was illegal but slavery was legal - what is *the law* is not the same as what is right or in keeping with societal norms. And an argument that fails to engage with that - repeatedly - is just the boring Sunday afternoon repeat we've heard over and over on this site over and over. For heaven's sake, there are other TERF adjacent sites to publish such (let's say the line) vapid bilge on.
If someone wants to make the case for stripping a bunch of people's rights from them which they have held since the 2004 GRA then make the case for it, morally. Don't just say "it's the law". That is not the locus of political debate.

Meanwhile ….. On the Home Front – politicalbetting.com
– The government’s continued refusal to issue the necessary guidance following the Supreme Court’s judgment in the For Women Scotland case on women’s rights while at the same time declaring its adherence to international law to be “unbreakable“. How about some commitment to domestic law for a change?

I'm wondering what durian pizza would be likeThe former were fine up until ca 1998, the latter is an abominationWhat are your thoughts on Radiohead and Hawaiian pizza?I woukd never buy an apple phone again The first I bought was shite... never again. Android rules ok!Apple are very very shit. Only goobers and freaks buy Apple
Quite apart from the fact that the cost is ludicrous.
Mainly because pineapple is a c*** in fruit form

Why PB feels the need to publish TERF bilge is byeond me.By not updating and issuing guidelines to match the Supreme Court guidelines, the government has let a number of organisations “roll their own”.
Most seem to be a demented swing to anti-trans, in the style we have seen all too often - a policy so extreme it’s unworkable, based alleged interpretation of law by ignorant arseholes.
See policies that shut down house building in some areas, demented interpretations of H&S that have killed people etc etc.
The duty of government is, in part to provide interpretations of the law for sub government functions/organisations. That, and changing the law.
Staring at the ceiling a whistling off key, doesn’t count.
