le, who goes by the name Rose.
According to the nurses, Streeting told them the issue of why single-sex spaces were important to women had not been “taken seriously enough” and that “we have created an unnecessary conflict”.
He replied “yeah” when one of the women asked: “Do you recognise that sex is a protected characteristic and that sex is biological? We would like you to commit to and reflect that in the day to day running of the NHS?”…
The five nurses have filed a claim against County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust with an employment tribunal. They say their employer has failed to protect staff from sexual harassment. The first pretrial hearing is expected next month.
Rose, who works in the operating department, identifies as female. The nurses claim their colleague does not take female hormones, is sexually active and has said they were trying to get their girlfriend pregnant.
The nurses said the colleague stared at their breasts as they were getting undressed and spent “a long time walking around the female dressing room”, sometimes wearing tight boxers that showed their genitalia.
His genitalia. Is he non-binary now, this Rose?
The group has said that 26 nurses wrote to HR and senior management outlining their concerns, but were told via HR that they needed to be “re-educated”, “broaden their mindset” and be more “inclusive”.
Shades of the wretched Mridul Wadhwa of Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre notoriety, who suggested that victims unhappy with trans (male) counsellors needed to "reframe their trauma"
Still, good for Wes Streeting.
