This is incredibly shoddy work @TRF @hugo_greenhalgh @rachelmsavage @antozappulla and does not stand up the @Reuters principles of integrity, independence, and freedom from bias

My case is not "pushing back against transgender rights" it is case about belief discrimination.

It is about the right of people not to be discriminated against at work & by service providers for holding or not holding a belief about the nature of sex and gender identity.
Adding up some numbers in the public domain is not much of an investigation.

It is the work of a pocket calculator and 15 minutes.

The rest of the time was spent looking for the fabled shady right wing money... none was found
“Basically, money is being used to bully" says Clara Barker

Is Thompson Reuters saying that women like me, @BluskyeAllison @8RosarioSanchez are bullying the institutions that discriminated against us by having the temerity to raise money to hire lawyers ?
“It certainly feels like there (are) deeper pockets for those challenging our rights than those trying to protect our rights” says Clara .

The average donation to my crowd funder is £27
Clifford Chance is just one of the magic circle law firms with deep pockets that has signed up to give pro bono legal support to strategic litigation for trans rights cases - for example the 'X' passports case. https://t.co/DPMcEXsiPy
Another one, Dentons wrote a report advising campaigners on how they should be secretive in their lobbying to change the law so that children can change their legal sex without the involvement of medical professionals or parents https://t.co/uSQHeLYaFl
How did Dentons and the transgender organisations get together... there was a matchmaker.

That would be.... Thompson Reuters Foundation
As @GlenTarman then head of the Trust Law, the pro bono law programme of the Thompson Reuters Foundation said "We hope this report will be a powerful tool for activists and NGOs working to advance the rights of trans
youth across Europe and beyond."

https://t.co/bVJSDumSzO
This takes a particular view of "rights of trans youth".

The judges in the case of Keira Bell v Tavistock were of course also considering rights of these children

The right not have experimental medical treatment w life long consequence at an age when they cannot weigh these
Trust law says that since they launched ten years ago they have generated the equivalent of $172 million in free legal assistance to NGOs and social enterprises "on the frontlines of social change"

I doubt any of that went to gender critical feminists.
So @TRFdotORG an organisation with the power to raise millions in donated legal time from the worlds biggest lawfirms is larping as @Reuters the trusted news agency to put the boot into a bunch of grassroots women raising funds by putting together their £20's on payday.
It even managed to get @msjenniferjames crowdfunder taken down by @gofundme for "hate"

This is one that has been running since January 2018.

What hate did gofundme only notice after 2 years when Reuters flexed its muscles?

Clara Barker was right “Basically, money is being used to bully"

This is not news reporting.

It is propaganda by an organisation that is committed to one side of the debate.

Reuters should be ashamed.

You want to know about Barockschloss Ludwigsburg? Too bad, I'm going to tell you some stuff about it, as it's my 'local'...


It all came about because Eberhard Ludwig, Duke of Württe.berg, decided in 1704 that he wanted a big old palace from which to be an absolutist Duke, and do absolutist things. So, picking an old hunting lodge, he started to extend it...


Thing is, though, to build a residential palace, you need a workforce. To gain a workforce, they needed somewhere to live. So, alongside the palace, he founded the town of Ludwigsburg, now adjacent to Stuttgart.


Ludwig resided at Ludwigsburg until 1733, when, childless, he kicked the bucket. Then Carl-Eugen, a relative, became Duke, and that's when things became lit.


See Carl Eugen had been raised in the court of Frederick the Great, and had been deprived of fun and female company - they were banned from the Prussian court.

So, he was essentially a big fat party animal from the get-go.
This week marks 12 months since Josephine Cashman supplied Andrew Bolt with a letter falsely attributed to a Yolngu lawman that Bolt published via NewsCorp on Jan 26 as parcel of his persecution of Bruce Pascoe. Cashman & Bolt still haven’t provided a satisfactory explanation

Terry Yumbulul didn’t write the letter and didn’t agree with its content. He said so himself in a video published the next day
https://t.co/IJ6ricZeRi and in a written statement published later the same day


The weird thing was, it soon emerged that large sections of the letter had been cribbed from other sources. Weird because as a Yolngu lawman, Terry didn’t need to borrow his knowledge from unrelated, alternate sources ... pretty much verbatim

The fallout was swift. Bolt was compelled to do a correction on his column and Cashman was just as swiftly dumped from her position of the Morrison government’s Senior Advisory Group for an Indigenous Voice to Government

There was no apology from either of them or from NewsCorp tho, and with the assistance of Sky News After Dark they desperately attempted to obfuscate the reality that everybody involved had been caught out and left red faced
