1. More evidence that Helena Kennedy is aware of and supports the global implementation of Principle 31 (YP+10) which calls on States to end the registration of Sex on birth certificates.

2. Helena Kennedy is Co-Secretary General at ILGA World. In 2019 they produced a report citing the YP and YP+10 as 'soft law' and 'human rights law' in many places throughout the report.

1. Boycott them for sure. However brands like Coca Cola (who own #CostaCoffee) & Nike have far too much global reach and power for boycotts against them to be truly effective. The answer is to look at the root & challenge the #PGLE & ESG policies created by #BlackRock & the #WEF
2. The Coca Cola Company is a Founding Member of the #PGLE. #Stonewall et al are Members. Below is a vast list of Supporters:

1. Borloz is in the UK. While he seems to hold a 'respectable' position within the UN, his views on "sex" can only be described as those of extreme biology denialism.

He & others who signed the Yogyakarta Principles often discuss their desire to implement sex self-ID into law.
2. However, it is worth noting that they never openly discuss their aim to abolish the recording of "sex" on all official documents including birth certificates.

This is what Principle 31 of YP+10 calls for & as a signatory it is what Borloz endorses.

3. It is clear that Borloz does not wish to draw attention to the fact that he seeks to establish international policy, which would disconnect human beings from their registered birth sex, with profound human rights implications.

1. Countries obliterating women's rights:

Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Iceland, India, Ireland, Israel, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, USA, Uruguay.
2. Lead by Argentina, these 28 states have just made a joint statement at the UN claiming that sex self-ID is an 'international human rights standard'. @RoisinMichaux

3. This is false and there is no obligation for member states to introduce sex self-ID, under any UN Treaty or human rights mechanism. The references they have cited in their statement confirm this fact.

2. We are so pleased to see that the important issues you raised on behalf of women, children and LGB ppl have now been officially recorded by the UN.

1.We welcome the review/investigation into #Mermaids by the @TNLComFund & @ChtyCommission. There is evidence suggesting funding was previously awarded to them based partly on falsehoods relating to the Yogyakarta Principles (YP). #MermaidsInvestigation

yogyakartaprinciples.org/principles-en/…
2. In 2019 a report was produced by TNLCF's Director for Scotland to assist in a review of the decision to award £500K over five years to #Mermaids after concerns were raised. The report claims that YP are legally binding & that all states must comply.

3. The YP are non-binding as confirmed by the UK Supreme Court. They do not represent 'international best practice'. They promote highly contested ideas such as making sex self ID the law & abolishing references to sex on a newborn child's birth certificate. Image
