Following recent victories within the cases of the Darlington Nurses and Jennifer Melle, Christian Concern and its legal arm The Christian Legal Centre (CLC) have launched a petition calling on the federal government to make sure that single-sex spaces, similar to changing rooms, are indeed only available to 1 sex.
Melle was subject to a lengthy disciplinary process following an altercation with a transgender patient, who was also a convicted paedophile and prisoner, after she referred to the patient as “Mr” and was allegedly threatened and racially abused, being called a “N****r”. In January Melle, the disciplinary process was dropped and she or he was reinstated in post.
The Darlington Nurses case also involved a transgender nurse. When the feminine nurses complained about having to make use of the identical changing rooms as a biological male they were told to “broaden their mindset” and be more “inclusive”. The transgender nurse in query reportedly offered to “educate” them on why they ought to be willing to get undressed in front of a transgender colleague.
In response the hospital provided the feminine nurses with a distinct space of questionable quality during which to get modified. A representative of the nurses, Bethany Hutchison, has visited the US to inform politicians there concerning the case and the state of freedom of speech in Britain.
Describing their petition, which is addressed to Health Secretary Wes Streeting and Women and Equalities Minister, Bridget Phillipson, Christian Concern state: “He [Streeting] promised in April last 12 months that recent policy can be rolled out ‘inside weeks’ but to this point has did not act.”
It is asking people to sign the petition to “make sure that no woman is forced to alter within the presence of a person”.
The petition says that up and down the country public institutions, especially the NHS, have did not respect last 12 months’s Supreme Court ruling that single-sex spaces are indeed meant just for people of that sex.
According to the petition, “Recent legal cases, including their Employment Tribunal victory, have made it clear that girls’s changing spaces are imagined to be for females only.
“But policies at workplaces across the country, particularly within the NHS, are still forcing women to share these personal spaces with biological men.”
The petition is because of be delivered on 11 February.
