Trans charity Mermaids loses case against LGB Alliance
Mermaids was set up in 1995 to support children and young people questioning their gender identity. It said the LGB Alliance sought to "destroy" its reputation and sources of funding.
LGB Alliance says it exists to advance the rights of lesbian, gay and bisexual people. It insisted it is not transphobic and does not endorse discriminatory behaviour towards any group or individual. Kate Barker, chief executive officer of LGB Alliance said she was "delighted" with the decision, but added "the cost to us and to our supporters has been huge".The tribunal had been asked to consider whether LGB Alliance should have been registered as a charity, but the two judges on the panel were unable to reach an agreement. Both judges agreed the case should be dismissed.
The tribunal heard arguments about the definition of homosexuality, transgender rights and gender identity services for children and young people, during a week of evidence at the general regulatory chamber in London in September. The Charity Commission said its role is not to regulate public debate on sensitive issues but to apply the law when registering charities.
