Stonewall faces 
 tribunal

Stonewall, the militant LGBT+ campaign group, is being sued by a prominent lesbian barrister who co-founded the LGB Alliance.

Allison Bailey (see photo), a criminal lawyer, is bringing employment proceedings against Stonewall and her barristers’ chambers, Garden Court Chambers, after Stonewall allegedly tried to persuade them to discipline her for expressing gender-critical views around transgender issues.

The court refused an attempt by Stonewall and chambers to have her case thrown out, and has also given Bailey permission to claim discrimination on the grounds of philosophical belief.
