Trans Judges, BBC bias and UK sovereignty!

I suppose it was inevitable that the first real challenge to the UK Supreme Court determination of gender being biological and immutable from birth would come from within the UK legal profession!

Meet retired Judge Victoria McCloud. Yes, really.

The BBC reports;

The UK's only ever judge to publicly say they are transgender is planning to take the government to the European Court of Human Rights over the Supreme Court's ground-breaking ruling on biological sex.

Dr Victoria McCloud, who stepped down from court last year, said the judgement and equality watchdog's new guidance violated “her” human rights and “she” felt "contained and segregated". “She” said the court had failed to consider human rights arguments that would have been put by trans people and the judgement had left “her” with the legal "nonsense" of being "two sexes at once".

McCloud came out as trans in “her” twenties and is one of about 8,000 people to have legally changed the sex on their birth certificate. She went on to be a High Court Master - judges who often manage complex, expensive cases - and was publicly promoted as a symbol of the modern judiciary's diversity.

(So, a DEI hire)

“She” stood down a year ago, saying “she” could not continue “her” judicial work amid an increasingly difficult public debate that had led to “her” being singled out for abuse and criticism.

Here is the image the BBC used to accompany this story…15 years out of date.

Do you think the BBC might have been trying to gaslight us as to what Dr McCloud actually looks like these days?

Here’s another more recent image of m’learned friend.

If this biological man succeeds in the case and the ECHR overrules the UK Supreme Court, I will be very surprised indeed. More likely is that he will be defeated.

That would be another victory for actual women.
