The new EHRC ruling isn’t just about trans people’s access to toilets - it’s about protecting other vital single-sex spaces https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jun/01/ehrc-ruling-trans-peoples-access-to-toilets-protecting-single-sex-spaces #Transgender #UkSupremeCourt #Gender #Women #Society #WorldNews #Law #UkNews

The new EHRC ruling isn’t just about trans people’s access to toilets - it’s about protecting other vital single-sex spaces

From the start, feminists have fought for spaces that are less visible but which have special status: prisons, refuges, rape crisis centres, lesbian groups, women’s health centres and sports, says social affairs journalist Susanna Rustin

@simonjay So glad I live in Brighton. I guess that's why we say, "welcome to the country of Brighton" However, it shouldn't be this way. The rest of the UK needs to get their collective shit together. Punch #nazis fuck #farage and fight #racism

Trans people like me are facing segregation now. We need parliament to restore our rights

Hard-won, vital legal protections have been upended – ultimately our lawmakers must fix this, says director of Trans+ Solidarity Alliance, Alexandra Parmar-Yee

#EHRC guidance finally published today after transphobic #UKSupremeCourt ruling in April 2025 & nothing but bullshit on #SkyNews right now. Getting angrier & angrier listening to this & I'm not even affected. The 20 years established rights lost were 'rights' I never even had.

This is excellent news from #Japan, highlighting yet again the institutional failure of the #UKSupremeCourt in its deference to a vehemently transphobic government in my similar case for X PASSPORTS. Transphobia was deep rooted in #UK's judicial system years before the FWS case.
