@ButtonDownTheHutches you have sent me down a rabbit hole not a place I have been mumsnetI've been following this case on the MN thread about it. It's bleeping ludicrous, but unfortunately the judge doesn't seem wholly impartial

Appropriating symptoms, eh?
He has "hot flushes" and "brain fog" so it HAS TO BE the menopause.
It's like saying "I have a headache so it HAS TO BE brain tumour", "I've just been sick so it HAS TO BE pregnancy."
(Also love the "Well, if you define it (menopause) like that." Well, yes. Yes, we do "define it like that". Because that's what it is.)
What a twit.

Imagine having the actual balls to mansplain menopause to women. The total arrogance of this tosser.
Quoting myself to add that this is the judge in question (he's retired but is apparently serving on a day rate for this tribunal).I've been following this case on the MN thread about it. It's bleeping ludicrous, but unfortunately the judge doesn't seem wholly impartial
I guess we have the answer to why he was so arsey with NC yesterday
Tribunal judge accused of bullying and misogyny
Five women have told the BBC about Judge Philip Lancaster's behaviour at employment tribunal hearings.

There is some speculation (on X) that the judge might be making sure that Tempest has no grounds for appeal by making sure NC is kept on a tight rein. If that is not the case, I wonder would he treat a male barrister in the same manner.Quoting myself to add that this is the judge in question (he's retired but is apparently serving on a day rate for this tribunal).

I saw that too and I'd very much love that to be the case, but apparently he's got a substantial history of complaints of misogyny (five reported in the BBC article I linked earlier, but apparently there are at least a further five similar complaints) so I'm not optimistic.
There's a male barrister on the questioning today, but I haven't been following closely enough to get the full measure of how the judge has been towards him
The teen rapists (2 of them at least) have been jailed about it was referred for being too lenient
We thought that about Kemp in Sandie's case and look what happened there! I don't trust any of these judges to look beyond the Stonewall nonsense. This judge incorrectly used the old ETBB to police the pronouns and also ruled against the use of the term TIM. Tempest would have had no grounds to appeal against the use of correct pronouns nor TIM. I believe that the judge has shown bias in those directions.
Good to see our colours promoted at Wimbledon!
Wimbledon is very terfy although it's not intentional.
ETA the suffragettes adopted green and purple in 1908, Wimbledon in 1909, maybe there is a connection somewhere
that's gorgeous, but I looked up the price and backed away slowly
I do love those colours together, though.I would want the Radley bag with it lovely though it is
Nice bag charm but I have a thing about butterflies, love real live butterflies and seeing them up close but I won't wear anything that has butterflies on. Weird/not weird

Bar the top one (which is about Ant McP and e-bikes), the most-liked posts in the last 24 hrs are ALL those in support of Camilla meeting with JKR / JKR's defence of single-sex spaces

How the tide has turned. I remember when there used to be a kick off on the Jack Monroe threads when someone failed to call her "they"
