I AM NOT GOING QUIETLY: FIGHTING FOR A JUDICIAL REVIEW.
The EHRC Draft Code of Practice was published on the 21st of May, and trans people, friends, family and human rights allies are horrified at the potential human rights issues. Consequently, I am seeking a Judicial Review against the code.
The reality is, trans men could find themselves banned from both male and female toilets, while trans women (many of whom have had lower surgery with constructed vagina’s) could find themselves banned from using women’s facilities, which they have used without issues for decades.
This places trans women in danger of harassment and violence if circumstances force them to use men's facilities.
This is a human rights abuse of epic proportions.
While it is great to see dozens of MPs backing an Early Day Motion to stop the code and return it to the EHRC, it is sadly unlikely to secure a majority.
In essence, a Judicial Review is likely to be our last chance to challenge this human rights abuse.
As a consequence, with the permission of Crowd Justice and my legal team, I have decided to change my proposed legal action against the Labour Party and to seek a Judicial Review of the code on human rights grounds.
We are, of course, aware of the GLP v EHRC appeal, and also aware that the Labour Party may feel it has escaped legal action. While that is true in the short term, I still believe we have a case.
Donors to my case against the Labour Party have been contacted by Crowd Justice and offered a refund - I am delighted to confirm that the vast majority have decided to support the change.
Indeed, on hearing the news, many people have chipped in still further, realising that a Judicial Review will challenge some of the effects of the Supreme Court judgment (FWS v SGM)
Initially, I am seeking £75,000 (approx £26,000 is being transferred from my case against Labour). In total, the case could cost circa £250,000.
It is important to note that I have “standing” - I am not a "third party" and have already been discriminated against.
Can you help?
Please donate and share - I cant do this without you.
Thank you.

But you are demanding Unison members police and enforce British trans apartheid.
So it is most definitely @unisontheunion ‘s business , @EHRC . You are a rotten, corrupt, hijacked organisation. @bphillipsonMP .
'My question for Nigel Farage is - why does the family of Henry Nowak mean nothing to you?'
@Peston addresses Farage directly over his claims of 'two-tier' policing.
The Reform leader called for people to respond with ‘pure, cold rage’, despite the family's appeal for calm.
I’m sorry, but the fixed UKSC ruling is incompatible with the Gender Recognition Act 2004. It has completely misunderstood the Equality Act 2010 - which does not mention once a thing called “biological sex.” A term invented by the anti-trans people movement. Lord Hodge overstepped his remit and got it wrong. The GRA clearly says anyone with a GRC FULLY becomes the sex they transition to, for ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES. Making women use the gents is the opposite of that. Labour need to grow a backbone and - for the second time in their hidtory - bring is into line with the rest of Europe.
“Farage has gone as close as he can to what feels like incitement…
...before stepping back and saying, “I’m not suggesting you do anything. I'm just saying it would be normal to feel pure cold rage”.
Farage has been likened to 'Tommy Robinson in a suit' - is there truth in it?
@scottygb But some have given in to YouTube, but with low effort like take ITV, they recently put the Litvinenko Drama onto YouTube but in what looks like a low bitrate 480p upscale to 1080p
