Incredibly, on the very day @ONS are forced to concede they acted unlawfully by conflating sex and gender in the census under Stonewall's aegis, Nancy Kelley still has the brass neck to tell WESC that sex and gender are not distinct in law. ...

RT @HJoyceGender: Excellent post by FT's former stats editor, @simonbriscoe, about what has to happen next after the fiasco of the High Court ruling telling the ONS that sex means sex, not gender identity. https://t.co/I14jvk...

One other thing. I fully believe that the reason why our public bodies think they can get away with treating us so dismissively, is because we're women. They think we don't really matter. And they think we do not have the power or the access to power ...

RT @anyabike: Funny how the minute they decide to FINALLY include women in hate crime laws they want to make it ALL sexes and genders "The amendment doesn’t use the words misogyny or women at all, but 'hostility based on sex or gender.' It is an 'All ...

RT @colwight: Just a brilliant thread. Don’t get in the way of these women. They’re angry (with good reason), they’re right (as is bleeding obvious), and they’re out to bring those to blame to account (which is the right thing to do). Respect. ...

Women challenging your transparency and your analysis are not harassing you. This should be a moment for female solidarity and for naming male violence against women. But the Tumblrised bullshit you've absorbed prevents you naming it clearly. And we ...

RT @legalfeminist: Prof McHarg is right, of course. It would be nice to think the @ONS had conceded because they now accept that they got it wrong. A cynic might wonder if they conceded simply to avoid a more conclusive defeat. #NoDebate isn't going ...

RT @AudreySuffolk: Important thread. Why were experts like @ProfAliceS ignored in favour of less well informed single issue lobbyists? And why did the @EHRC not get the broader significance of what was happening? https://t.co/FzK9Uc...

Many people, and above all Alice, tried to get @ONS to change course over the last two years. They treated both data users, and women's groups, with what can only be described as dismissive contempt. https://t.co/jncooh...

I am delighted by the result. I am also pretty enraged that a major public body spent millions of tax-payers money on a process they couldn't defend in court and basically ran away rather than have the full extent of that revealed. We need a public ...

It is time for public bodies to start understanding that the interpretation of the law they are being given by Stonewall is not lawful. And following it is a really good way of ending up in court. And losing. https://t.co/gBc1OP...
