3. Brexit emboldened... I'm not even getting into this insult to everyone who disagrees with you is a phobe, it's petpetty
I didn't say this Brexit made racists attacks go up that's not saying everyone who supported Brexit was racist but there is statistical correlation this happened so the racists who voted for Brexit were emboldened by that. The same will happen due to this ruling thats not to say that all people who support the ruling are transphobes.
Wasn't part of the problem that it created another problem in that trans with a gender recognition certificate would get access to those spaces, and those without wouldn't. Discriminatory based on a certificate.

Personally I think the decision was the correct one.
Isn't the issue that a GRC should confer you all the "rights" of that group. Otherwise what's the actual point of one? This ruling pretty much not only didn't allow for self ID (too complex and nuanced) they rendered the GRC as useless as well. And getting a GRC is bloody hard.

Decision may have been right legally (I've not seen a breakdown by commentators i follow) and possibly for self ID (like I say that's a big can of worms). But personal opinion is all spaces should be inclusionary by default and exclusionary by exception. I have no issue with women's shelters for cis-women only as long as that's stated.

Like I say there is grey area compromise and this ruling hasn't found it at all to the extent it doesnt even acknowledge intersex people exist by creating a sex binary. It's up to parliament to lead the debate in a good and dignified way although I can't see that happening.
 
University governance is almost 100% Democrat at this point let's not pretend.

I agree, I mean there is anti Jewish sentiment rampant around the US and Europe, chanting about destroying isreal and killing Jews worldwide has had to be dealt with by governments, but thisnhas little to nothing to do with it.

But I also agree, Trump is on the rampage after being targeted for 8 years, who would have known that weilding the DOJ and federal government as weapons would come back to bite them in the arse *surprised pikachu face*
The main issue with the anti-semitism is that a lot of people are anti-Israeli government and their actions, however the manner in which they seem to be protected by other national governments particularly the U.S fuels the ideas that there's a big 'jewish' conspiracy or governments being in Israel's pocket.
If you see what is an ostensibly Jewish government bombing hospitals and seeing reports of thousands of women/kids/aid workers being killed, said gov putting out narratives, evidence coming out which proves said narratives wrong which then have to be amended, meanwhile that government still being protected - if you aren't someone with the knowledge to separate the state/religion or religion/zionism then I can see why you then take umbrage with what can come across as akin to a religious war or plot.
It doesn't help that if you criticise Israel's actions or Netanyahu etc that you're labelled antisemitic. Not that I condone genuine antisemitic discourse at all, but certain parties fan their own flames.

Anti Semitism, Anti Zionism and simply Anti what Israel is doing right now are often conveniently just lumped together.
 
There's a gray area between Anti Zionism and anti semitism as a lot of the anti Zionist crowd will say Isreal has no right to exist. A lot of people would deem that anti semitic.
Well it probably has roots in antisemitism.

I take the view it probably shouldn't of been created in the way it was but thats bloody hard to erase now without creating more problems.
 
ive been doing a bit of reading around this case, it's seemingly very muddy water...

Detained twice for gang related crimes, but not charged, beat his wife up but she withdrew the complaint of years of abuse to work through things, allegations of human trafficking, and confidential testimony by 2 separate people that he is a gang member. He claims he isn't a gang member, but pled for asylum status because his rival gang might kill him if he goes to El Salvador...

Fascinating case
 
Can you believe this twat used to work in the British military as an intelligence officer....well that's what he claims
Not to worry, I found it, and sadly as predicted he never mentioned speech, he never mentioned speaking out about due process at all.

You guys have to cool it with the Huffpost obsession.

Coming from someone who almost never quotes a source, huffpost is just as reliable as any other.

The fact you don't like it is irrelevant.

And not one shred of this brought to court or proven.
