I like all the people saying "She lost 60% of her case though". Sure in the same way that if a prosecutor gets someone charged with murder, the outcome of the case is a draw, because they didn't get the accused with manslaughter on the same person

I don’t think they ever quite got over the result of the 2021 appeal court ruling regarding the protection for gender critical beliefs under the Equality Act 2010. That utterly wrecked their main line of attack, that gender critical beliefs were nothing but bigotry and therefore not worthy of protection. Once they were regarded as protected beliefs then Ms Forstater’s former employer had a much harder job defending their decision. Of course, we wouldn’t hear the end of a Muslim being fired for their beliefs, it’d be reported and commented on for days in The Guardian, but I see that it dropped off the BBC front page within hours (strange that!).

The “analysis” of the news from the BBC’s “LGBT and Identity Correspondent” is fairly shit, I wouldn’t like to speculate as to why, but maybe they shouldn’t have such a post - personally, I would have thought the legal correspondent would have been a much better bet for a good analysis of the situation seeing as it is a legal case and all and it relates to equality and employment law and not the special feelings of the mostest oppressed group evah.
