Thank you @sarahowen.org.uk for listening fairly to the EHRC yesterday but clearly putting the reality of trans people’s lives across.
Having heard their defence, thank you for now signing EDM 240 against the EHRC’s harmful guidance.

An appeal to our followers and supporters: if you haven't already written to your MP asking them to sign onto EDM 240, please do it today.

I have signed the fatal motion on the code of practice.
The answers to the questions I raised below - and to those from other committee members - fell far short of anything workable, just or fair.
I was invited to attend the Women and Equalities Committee this week, in my role as a member of the Joint Committee on Human Rights, to question the Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) about the recently tabled Code of Practice.
