On which note, my son is still raging about the time that the toilet custodian at Athens bus station refused to let him into the men's toilets alone and insisted he go with us into the women's.(He was a young-looking 12 at the time.)

As the chair of the #EHRC says, it's just common sense /s

@Shonascatchard the #EHRC guidance effectively bans #Trans people from using any toilets in any public or commercial space, which effectively means that they cannot go out anywhere, at least in urban areas, for more than a couple of hours.

That's a HUGE denial of civil freedom.

Glad but not entirely surprised to see my MP, Clive Lewis has signed in favour of this motion.

I said the day the #EHRC announced these guidelines they were unworkable and essentially trying to create a ‘separate but equal’ approach to #trans facilities that is absolutely akin to Jim Crow.

137 MPs, from #UKLabour, #LiberalDemocrat, #Greens, #PlaidCymru, #SNP and #SDLP, have signed a motion calling for the #EHRC guidance on #Trans people using single sex spaces to be overruled.

If your MP is on this list, write and thank them; if yours isn't, urge them to sign.

it does not protect trans people’s ability to participate fully in society, it does not support organisations that wish to remain inclusive, and it does not comply with the UK’s domestic and international human rights obligations.

Finally got around to writing the letter, babe. Now it's your turn. 17 days left.

https://writetheletter.bimini.workers.dev/

"A prayer motion to reject the EHRC Code has been tabled. Your MP can sign it. They won't unless you ask."

It's an abysmal piece of writing, from all angles - whether you care about trans people, or shop/office workers, or simply society at large. We don't need to create the culture where people are being policed for not performing gender well enough to satisfy any passerby. That way lies the rise of random violence, totalitarianism, and dystopia. Let's not go there.

EDM 240 / prayer motion is live. Your MP needs to sign it. Two taps via the coalition tool.

After BASH BACK actionists took direct action against the EHRC's offices, the EHRC have been thrown out by their landlord.

#EDM240 now has 132 signatures calling for dumping the #EHRC's Code Of Practice. Thanks to all those MPs, and congrats to everyone who wrote to their MP.

But a debate is very unlikely unless that number of signatures is doubled.

Please keep on writing to MPs!
