The Council of Europe just told the UK to stop treating women’s rights and trans rights as opposites — and they’re right.

Human rights aren’t a zero-sum game. They’re a framework for coexistence. #humanrights #councilofeurope #transrights #womensrights

"The EHRC’s exclusionary interim guidance has had a devastating impact on trans people’s lives"

“Now the guidance has been withdrawn, so should the exclusionary policies that organisations rashly implemented in its aftermath. If not, they could find themselves in hot water.”

EHRC withdraws interim guidance encouraging trans exclusion

After six months of confusion and delay, the EHRC has taken down interim guidance rushed out in April. But the damage has already been done.

Illustration of a werewolf barista in a little cafe. The werewolf wears a barista apron and carefully pours cream over a tiny cup of latte. The backdrop consists of a countertop upon which sits a blueberry tart under glass, and a glass shelf housing various pastries. There's also a commercial espresso machine, bouquet of flowers in a vase, a wall shelf, a chalkboard menu, and string lights strung on the wall.

It's not like the evidence has been hidden:

The ADF have been worming their way into the UK for YEARS trying to impose the Christo-fascist ideology.

Loads of articles have exposed their anti-gender campaign tactics against bodily autonomy.

You’re right - they won’t target abortion rights, they’ll use the ‘wedge issue’ of trans rights!

While ADF UK’s overhead, lobbying and legal costs have gone up/fluctuated between 2018-2024, the BIG increase is staff costs - yet they only have 1 extra person!

That would indicate they've hired someone between 2023 - 2024 who is on a salary of £154,000

… when did Farage meet with them again? 🤔

The supreme court case and everything following it relies on not asking questions and forcing anti trans ideology through soooooo

Rose Schmits @roseschmits.bsky.social · 2h

Feel like some of the apparent panic from the EHRC would be because they know the only way to push through the trans segregation is by force and not to look into it with due care so the minister seemingly not brute forcing throws their whole scheme off

A Whitehall source said: “Unfortunately this looks like the EHRC deflecting – they still haven’t sent ministers the information requested in order to assess the draft code. The EHRC should be cracking on with their job, not giving lectures on timing while government still awaits their material” 🔥

The EHRC has written to the Minister for Women and Equalities, demanding that she rushes through their dreadful draft Code of Practice.

This is a bizarre intervention from a supposedly impartial public body.
