As the edifice of gender identity ideology continues to crumble, along comes another example of an institution not only captured but utterly distorted by this regressive and harmful theory. Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre (ERCC) has lost an employment tribunal case brought by a former staff member whose work life was made a living hell because she thought rape victims should be told whether the support worker assigned to them was male or female. Roz Adams was employed as a counselling support worker between 2021 and 2023, when she resigned after having been put through a gruelling disciplinary process over her belief in biological sex.
In a scathing judgment issued today, an employment tribunal unanimously found that Adams was unlawfully discriminated against because of her beliefs and unfairly subjected to constructive dismissal. The belief in question is that ‘biological sex is real, important, immutable and not to be conflated with gender identity’.
