if Epstein was just another dodgy lobbyist, this would be a very very different story

Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position,

Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

But I never considered the possibility that the judges would leapfrog Denning's famous folly. Yet that is what they have done.

British justice, eh? 🤣😅😅😅😅😅 Once again, the term is an oxymoron.

In my note last night looking ahead to this judgment (www.facebook.com/share/p/1FEW...), I considered the possibility that the judges might make a politically convenient decision whose legal absurdity echoed Lord Denning's notorious "appalling vista" judgment. >>

The judges of the UK Supreme Court have not just overreached themselves. They have created a definitional crisis which will plague the courts and will bury employers and service providers in a swamp of uncertainty. >>

Maybe the full text of the written judgment will address this, but even so it will be very hard to avoid huge caseloads for lawyers willing to argue the biological complexities. >>

The law and the science now conflict, and in the oral summary of judgment delivered this morning there was no indication that the judges had any concept of the complexity and uncertainity of "biological sex". >>

.

For everyone, it means that the UK is returning to the legally disastrous concept of "biological sex". The problem here is simple: the law regards sex as binary, but the biological reality is that human sex is nor binary. >>

For trans people, this result means an immediate and severe loss of protection against discrimination. It also means a huge loss of privacy, as employers and service providers will be legally required to identify who is trans. >>

In effect, the judges have rewritten the EA as they think it should have been drafted, rather than as it was passed by the UK Parliament. That is an outrageous blow to the purpose of any parliament. >>

This is an atrocious judgment, because it is explicitly based on reading into the Equallty Act 2010 a set of inferred intentions which are nowhere stated in the EA. >>

It's over. The UK's Gender Recognition Act 2004 has been gutted.

The UK Supreme Court has ruled that the Equality Act refers to "biological sex", not to the possession of a Gender Recognition Certificate. >>

Running around with a flamethrower trying to burn down Los Angeles is a spectacularly stupid thing to do. It shows contempt for American values. 😡

The responsible, patriotic American course of action is to rename LA to Gaza. Then within hours, Joe Biden will stomp up $8 billion to bomb LA to rubble

More misinformation from a mendacious government

Many thanks to the #Starmtroopers for the pure white background which made it so easy to improve their text.

I used to maintain that Renua was the worst party name ever because it legitimately sounds like a treatment for vaginal dryness.

Aontú however sounds like a perfume you can buy at SuperValu.

There should also be warrants for the arrest of Biden, Sunak, Starmer and Scholz, but that seems very unlikely.

Situation in the State of Palestine: ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I rejects the State of Israel’s challenges to jurisdiction and issues warrants of arrest for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant Today, on 21 November 2024, Pre-Trial Chamber I of the International Criminal Court (‘Court’), in its composition for the Situation in the State of Palestine, unanimously issued two decisions rejectin...

I had lost hope that the ICC would ever escape procedural wrangles. I feared that American bullying had succeeded.

But today, the ICC dismissed Israel's legal ruses, and issued warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant. (y)
