FOI shows head of Census at ONS had two private meetings with Nancy Kelley, CEO of Stonewall, about the wording of the sex guidance /1

The first meeting was THE DAY BEFORE the group stakeholder meeting about the wording of the guidance for the sex question in the census. /2

ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transp…
Stonewall warned ONS that a group stakeholder meeting about the sex question should not be a ‘hostile environment for trans attendees’. /3

As Stonewall champions the ONS dutifully agreed to limit everyone to 3 mins. We got limited to just 3 mins to put the case for why accurate data on sex matters to women because NANCY KELLEY TOLD THEM TO /4

We asked ONS about their duties as Stonewall champions. Unbelievably they said they’d lost the paper work! Yes, the organisation the U.K. entrusted with data collection had LOST the information! /5

ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transp…
ONS ended up losing in court because it had become unduly influenced by Stonewall. We have made a formal complaint to the ONS’s regulatory body about the mishandling of the census. The role of Stonewall will be raised and we will call on Stonewall membership to be dropped. /6

Today the ONS has taken down its old guidance on how to collect data on gender identity. /1

“This interim guidance page has been created to replace our previous guidance about gender identity”

analysisfunction.civilservice.gov.uk/policy-store/g…
The ONS messed up the gender identity question in the Census leading the data to be downgraded from official stats. New work is ongoing to create a harmonised standard approach across government. /2
In the meantime the interim guidance says you must stick a health warning on any data generated using the Census-type question because some people don’t understand what ‘gender identity’ means so data quality is poor. /3 Image

Thread: German applicants can now get a UK GRC using self-ID.

The UK Government is in no rush to close this self-ID loophole and has instead committed to an 'annual review'.

Thank you @Baronessjenkin for submitting this Parliamentary Question /1

questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questi…
We asked whether they plan to remove Germany from the list of approved countries for the overseas route of gender recognition after the German Self-Determination Act comes into force on 1 November.

They said GR systems in other countries "constantly change" and it would update the "list annually".

/2Image
They ignored our key question about whether German applicants could now get a UK GRC without supplying medical reports. Just a copy and paste answer about annual updates /3

Breaking News: Census data on trans population downgraded by Stats Regulator. /1

“We consider that there is sufficient evidence that the gender identity question in the census has underperformed, with some groups of people being more likely than others to misunderstand the question.”

osr.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/news/osr-publi…
Analysis by Professor Michael Biggs showed flaws in the data triggering this investigation. Public struggled to understand a complicated question about gender identities matching sex registered at birth. Result was lots of people saying they are trans by mistake and inflating the figures /2
The ONS team in charge of designing the Census were captured by gender ideologues. Basic questionnaire design principles abandoned in favour of ideological language and motives. /3
