In short: Supreme Court says Parliament definitely did not intend to amend definition of "sex/woman/man" to protect trans people in their acquired gender. But ministers explicitly stated on record that this would be the effect when taking the legislation through Parliament 🧵

Here's the minister introducing Gender Recognition Bill in 2003 saying it'd amend equality legislation to protect trans people in acquired gender. But Supreme Court judgment somehow concluded there was no evidence that Parliament wanted to protect trans people in acquired gender

IAEA say "no credible indications of an ongoing, undeclared structured nuclear programme" in Iran & find precisely ZERO grams of weapon grade uranium. Yet yesterday in Parliament several MPs falsely claim IAEA think weaponisation imminent. How can such lies stand unchallenged?
