"Colm O’Gorman, executive director of Amnesty International Ireland, said that while newspapers were free to run adverts according to their own guidelines, they should respect human rights."
Is "legitimate representation" a human right for women?
Women in Ireland seeking to voice our concerns about gender identity ideology were met by this letter last year, signed by Amnesty International amongst others:
"Iseult White, a granddaughter of Seán McBride, one of the human rights body’s co- founders, said it 'seeks to deny legitimate representation to people and conscience [and] has a chilling effect on society'."
Amnesty was even singled out in an article by Maya Forstater's lawyer @peter_daly after her win at the UK Employment Appeals Tribunal last month, as @ThePhoenixMag reports:
"Amnesty Ireland went furthest of all by putting its name to a statement calling for people with Gender Critical beliefs to be 'denied legitimate political representation'. Even typing that sentence feels implausible."
Indeed.
