This is not a prayer motion, the only thing that could reject the draft guidance.

I do not think there is much chance of a prayer motion being voted on, given the timetables, who controls the timetable etc etc. But the chances are not zero.

She is thick as mince but yet the taxpayers are funding this grifter. So wrong.

If Parliament does not disapprove the code by then 40 days after being laid, the UK Government will set a date for it come into force. The EHRC will publish it on its website. Once in force, the Services Code will be a statutory code that can be used in legal proceedings.

Thanks for this useful summary! Awaiting a date for enforcement now...

'The comments Nadia refers to from the High Court judgment in the GLP v EHRC case are “obiter dicta”: the judge’s non-binding observations on a side issue.'

Apparently Nads thinks that it’s ‘the most hardline interpretation’ of the law that including TIMs in women only services would be unlawful discrimination against all the other men who aren’t permitted on the grounds of sex.

Oooh she makes a very good point at the end, I think she’s also referring to the obiter remarks in Forstater that the TRAs cling to, that we’ve seen most recently in the DEFRA tribunal.

Ie him saying that the judgment wasn’t a licence to harass or misgender with impunity became “you are allowed to hold your GC belief but not to express it in the workplace because it’s harassment” to these people.
