The proposals were negotiated and approved by the EHRC, as far as I am aware, so whilst Momentum may disagree with them, they cannot be said to be a flawed interpretation of the report
This is Labour’s action plan which as far as I am aware was approved by the EHRC labour.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
Key:
- EHRC issued an unlawful act notice to Labour and made legally binding recommendations
- Labour produced an action plan which EHRC then approved (labour.org.uk/wp-content/upl…)
- EHRC will to monitor and can use enforcement powers if Labour doesn't implement... 1/2
- So by voting down the package of measures (which have been negotiated and approved by the EHRC - unless some contrary detail has been added) Labour is at risk of being on the end of EHRC enforcement powers.
Here is the EHRC report labour.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

I am devastated by the news of the death of my @DoughtyStreet colleague @JonathanCoopr. So much to say about this wise, funny, and intelligent man who devoted his life to human rights and particularly the defence of LGBT+ rights. He lived and breathed the concept of human dignity
I know of him for many years but after I moved to Doughty Street he was particularly kind to me. We recorded two wonderful episodes of the @BHumanPodcast together and I implore everyone to listen to them to get a taste of his irrepressible personality and the impact his work had

Have had a proper detailed read of this judgment now - it’s a polite but very sharp evisceration of the High Court judgment. Particularly the way the lower court handled the evidence and factual findings
It’s this bit and what follows. It is quite extraordinary that the claim failed and the court said it wasn’t its place to reach findings on controversial medical topics but nonetheless it went on to do exactly that
The court of appeal was polite enough but the judges in court below will be wincing I imagine

Bell -v- Tavistock overturned. Court overstepped the mark by giving guidance on puberty blockers in a case which the claimant had effectively lost. Sounds like the right outcome judiciary.uk/judgments/bell…

First time I have ever worn a stab vest
The reality is that security outside synagogues, usually a mixture of volunteers and professionals, has been the norm since I was a child. I don't remember a time when anyone took the safety of synagogues for granted

Seems a huge bit of news - over 100,000 people have been detained in hotel quarantine since February
Although, a recent judicial review permission decision which I will post soon (not publicly available) says people aren’t detained (strictly ‘deprived of liberty’) despite being stuck in a guarded hotel room with 15 mins exercise in the car park per day. I think that’s wrong
Here is the judgment in Khalid - permission decision (first stage of Judicial Review). Mr Justice Linden held that hotel quarantine (which for most people is 23 hrs 45 mins per day stuck in a guarded room) is not even arguably a deprivation of liberty (!) …ughtystreetchambers-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal… ImageImage
