I think there is a good prospect of success.

SEEN Police has today taken the decision to begin judicial review proceedings over the EHRC’s refusal to disclose the Draft “Code of Practice on Single-Sex Services.”
The refusal is unlawful, discriminatory, and has created a dangerous information imbalance.

yes I don't really see how you can go "oh yikes these people have changed their political views incredibly quickly, mostly because of what Very Online people talk about on social media" and also think that people who went from never talking about gender to calling trans women predators are....normal
I don’t like subtweeting people I consider online friends, but there is a subset of people who are very worried about the ongoing radicalisation of our political elite but won’t ever acknowledge the echoes with the radicalisation of their colleagues on trans rights
And few who are sympathetic to us, some who are friendly with me on here, will ever stick their head above the parapet

Neutrality is increasingly problematic in both theory and practice since X became such a toxic platform while so many people continue to use it to consume information.
Wrote this a couple of weeks ago. Feels more relevant still after today. And it’s a deficit of self awareness which goes far beyond some members of the BBC board.

This gets to the core of it I think: insofar as social media radicalisation has been immensely damaging in politics, it’s not because it’s broken the minds of the average punter. It’s because it has deranged the brains of politicians and political commentators.
