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.

3. It is worth reading her forward in full and the section on the YP+10.

6. These people know exactly what they are doing and they must be stopped! Share this everywhere and continue to RESIST.

1. We find this talk by Michael O'Flaherty(MOF) disturbing and worrying for many reasons including the outright lies contained in it. We reject the conflation of sex and gender; sexual orientation and gender identity and we oppose the harmful definition of SO contained in the YP.

2. MOF was the Rapporteur responsible for drafting the YP and is currently Director of the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights(FRA). He gave the talk on the YP(at 19mins) at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia (a country where self-ID is taking hold).

3. Not only does he bamboozle the audience by conflating sex and gender identity he lies about the contents of the YP. According to MOF the YP "states the law as it is" and they "ask for nothing new". He mentions Principle 3 but fails to declare it calls for SELF-ID to be the law

1. We wonder whether The Scottish Police Federation is aware of the contents of materials used in training their staff may be receiving and if we could bring this manual produced by the Council of Europe(CoE) to their attention? @DvdHmltn @CalumA_Steele

2. Produced by the CoE SOGI Unit in May 2017, not only does the manual conflate sex and gender; sexual orientation and gender identity, it misrepresents the law and contains extremely controversial definitions about who belongs under the 'trans umbrella'.

3. A 'crossdresser/transvestite' is described as someone who dresses as the opposite 'gender' because they find it fulfilling in emotional or sexual ways. According to the manual these people are also 'Trans'.

1. We congratulate law firms who have left Stonewall but we are not surprised to learn that some have doubled downed on their position. The global capture that is taking place within the legal industry is in part due to the capture of the International Bar Association(IBA).

2. rollonfriday.com/news-content/e…

3. In 2016 the International Bar Association Human Rights Institute(IBAHRI) produced a report with ARC and ILGA in support of the YP. (Helena Kennedy was Co-Chair of the IBAHRI in 2016).

*more on the UPR later . .
