One of the unsung tragedies of the state we're in is that serious, good-faith experts like Scott end up spending their precious time patiently trying to counter the foolishness and ignorance of far too many of those in public life, with little or no hope that they will be heeded #Experts #PublicDiscourse #Ignorance #Nospecificcountrycodesmentioned.

400 thousand smackers embezzled by the man who at the time was married to Scotland's first minister. Murrell's guilty plea means the whole thing won't be raked over an open court.

Maeve was astounding. Serena Worley speaking from the floor likewise. Webberley was astounding per usual.

This judgment should send shockwaves through NHS and beyond.

Like many employers, during the past decade City firms brought in self-ID policies. But the FWS ruling means that single-sex facilities and anything done lawfully for one sex or the other - like Women in Leadership programmes - MUST be based on sex, not self-ID or paperwork. 2/6 #SexBasedRights #WorkplaceEquality #SelfIDPolicies #Thearticledoesnotstronglyreferenceanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

If the legally flawed verdict in the High Court against the OfS is allowed to stand, it will be very bad for free speech on campus and academic freedom. The OfS should appeal and make the right arguments - ones based on the Equality Act. #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #EqualityAct #Thearticledoesnotspecificallymentionanycountryorprovideindicationsaboutitsfocusonanyparticularcountry.Therefore #Icannotidentifyanycountrycodesbasedonthecontentprovided.
