A journalist called Nick Wallis did a great primer on Sarah Morrisons case: https://genderblog.net/sara-morrison-v-belfast-film-festival/. He's live-blogging the Tribunal and emailing daily précis to subscribers, too. I think I first came across him with his coverage of Sandie Peggie's Tribunal - he's definitely one of us!

Hi Jeremy

Yes my wife had sent me that . I had to find an alternative news report because he doesn't explain the details of the case but what he is doing is great and people can follow the case via his blog

He is most famous for his exposé of the Post Office Scandal which he has written a book about

I found that out after he came to my attention covering Sandie's case. He's a good'un.

You previously cross-posted a SEEN in Journalism podcast with Nick Wallis too, I think Dusty

Thanks Dusty, I agree with you about the Jean Hatchet piece and the detransitioners wanting to use the word trans. We can’t afford to make exceptions in order to ‘be kind’. That’s what got us into this mess in the first place.

You're welcome, TT and glad you agree re Jean Hatchet ( and Karen Davis 😊)

Good hashtag 😊

My MP Rebecca Paul has just asked Starmer a question at PMQs about the Supreme Court decision and the men still in Women’s prisons. Perhaps my emails are helping 😁

Dusty Masterson's avatar

Excellent, well done, TT. What did Never Here Keir have to say?

Dusty

The usual waffle about how the decision should of course be implemented.

Apparently there are five men in a Women’s jail in Surrey…in a separate wing but they probably mix some of the time.

Well done TT and well done that MP!

She’s a Terf so not much of an effort for me. 😁

Lucky you, TT!!!

I said you’d need to vet them before including them in endpieces 😂

Dusty Masterson's avatar

OK I think that crosses the (pretty low) barrier, Petal though other members of Endpieces Club are welcome to comment 😀

Do we have to 😂 I’m leaving it to you Dusty.

It made me laugh but the trouble with doing parody of the troons is that they are so bonkers that they are almost a self-parody. I think a troon might watch that and think 'that's really lovely'!!!However I think that readers of this substack would realise it was a parody 😀

You’ve hit the nail on the head so by that standard….an include? 😁 it is funny

Dusty Masterson's avatar

Include I think. Us Terfs will see it as parody and laugh
