EHRC are starting to worry that their trans guidelines will be exposed following the recent letter sent about UK trans rights.
They are utterly disgraceful and inept

Equality and Human Rights Commission @equalityhumanright.bsky.social · 8h

We've written to @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social to request the government to revoke the 2011 services code and make our updated version statutory. It accurately reflects the law and updated guidance is urgently needed: www.equalityhumanrights.com/media-centre...

You sound worried that legitimate equality services are seeing your "guidance" for what it is.
Your new guidance is just a transphobes dream to try and keep trans people out of public spaces.
It is not worth the paper it is written on, its a transphobic dog whistle.

We had them too until about 2010, but it was down a corridor so unless you got cover you couldn't get to it

I worked on a ward you were the only nurse much of the time so we looked after each other, hardest thing was when I was a smoker and couldn't get a cig, but we got creative 😂

If I had to pick one thing about my parents that disappointed me it would be thru drank this!

I remember when they tried to ban us having drinks at the nurses station because it gave a bad impression...I just said having nurses off with urine infections is going to increase and when the only nurse on duty do you think disappearing to have a drink is a good impression?

I had tea up to the she of about 20 then mixed it up with coffee from time to time...but proper tea not instant tea...then I started work in the NHS and it was cold tea most of the time

I remember them trying it when it came into Poundland and we didn't get ours until the 90s so maybe it was around before

Making my cuppa this morning I got a flashback to this.
My parents were avid tea drinkers and they tried this when it came out in the 90s and liked it...no wonder I went on to coffee!
