There are some extraordinary things in the Sandie Peggie judgment that ignore reality and women's rights and will surely not stand up to appeal. https://t.co/6gjAlPlTtT

This case has taken so much from my mum, more than anyone will ever know. But she never stopped moving forward. Her strength means everything. Today is only a step, and there’s so much more to come for her. Love you mum🩷

What a heroine Sandie Peggie is. She has been so brave to see this case through to this point, and more may be required. The judgment is indeed "problematic", as her solicitor Margaret Gribbon says. The degree of capture is actually quite frightening

This problem cannot be solved by leaving individual women to upend their lives, fundraise to take court cases and then endure cross-examination and public scrutiny – all simply to win back what was a right that was beyond question until recently, and which most people still

There are thousands of women like Sandie all over the country. The only way to break the pattern of harassment of women who object to men in women-only spaces is to have clear rules and expect everyone to follow them.

Sandie’s bravery is an inspiration, but it shouldn’t require bravery for women to be able to say to their employers, clearly and in natural language, that male colleagues – men, in other words – have no place in spaces that exist for the safety, dignity and privacy of women.
