“The EAT [Employment Appeals Tribunal] held that his [Miller’s] anti-Zionist beliefs constitute a protected belief under the Equality Act 2010 (EqA); he was dismissed because he manifested those beliefs and as the dismissal was tainted by discrimination, he was unfairly dismissed.

This means that it is unlawful to discriminate against someone because they hold those [Anti-Zionist] beliefs. The successful appeal outcome reinforces that controversial beliefs are not excluded from protection under the EqA simply because they generate complaints or public controversy”

Equality and Human Rights Commission Declares Sex-Based Bathroom Access

The EHRC recently said single-sex spaces like toilets can legally exclude transgender people. This applies if it's a fair way to meet a real goal, like safety or privacy.

#EHRC, #TransgenderRights, #SingleSexSpaces, #EqualityAct, #UKLaw

New guidance from the EHRC allows single-sex spaces to exclude transgender people. This is different from previous interpretations and aims to provide legal clarity.

The DOJ filed 197 pages calling LGBTQ+ protections anti-Christian. Not subtext. The framework. Thirteen million queer adults sit inside that crosshair right now. Wendy Weber breaks down what the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias actually means — and the senator call you make this week.

Well that's disappointing.

A few weeks ago I sent my MP an email via #GoodLawProject using this form

https://action.goodlawproject.org/force-government-rip-ehrc%E2%80%99s-transphobic-guidance

I now have a boilerplate reply that says nothing beyond what I already told them

Usually he's quite helpful

This is going to be bad

If you’d like to sign the petition calling on the UK government to amend the Equality Act 2010 to make social class a protected characteristic, you can do so here:

fördern, validiert die Entscheidung das Unbehagen gegenüber trans Körpern als rechtmäßigen Grund für Diskriminierung.

Fazit: Wenn das Recht die Biologie auf einfache Kategorien des 19. Jahrhunderts reduziert, verliert es den Anschluss an die moderne Wissenschaft und gefährdet die Würde und Sicherheit von trans Menschen am Arbeitsplatz.

In 2025, being trans in America means living under conditional citizenship

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://www.advocate.com/voices/trans-rights-in-america-2674433270

Everyone should be able to go to work, get changed and use a toilet without being harassed or subjected to discrimination.

This week two legal judgements, concerning employers based in Scotland, have shown that employers are not obliged to exclude trans people from facilities that align with their gender.
