the head of the EHRC said, in an interview a few days ago, that it is utterly powerless and simply exists to translate existing law for common people

that if trans people have issue with anything they should take it up with the UK Supreme Court

the UK Supreme Court said something similar itself when it took a look at the Equalities Act and ruled protections for women apply only to cis women

they were 'just interpreting a sentence' and abdicated all responsibility for the lived consequences trans people would endure as a result

'its not my fault, I'm not to blame'

the Equalities Act was written to expand human rights as widely as possible. its not within the spirit of the document to exclude

if everyone in the chain is utterly powerless to help a persecuted minority then what use is the chain?

the EHRC is not powerless, it turns one sentence into 100 pages of detail - approved by MP vote

the UK Supreme Court is not powerless, it has a long history of ruling the wrong way

bad people making bad choices
