Trans Protest Group Vandalizes Human Right’s Headquarters
BASH BACK, a “trans-led direct action project focused on total transgender liberation,” vandalized Equality and Human Rights Commission’s (EHRC) headquarters in London for its controversial stance on “single-sex spaces.”
The EHRC’s interim guidance, published in April, recommends “organizations and service providers bar trans men and women from single-sex services and spaces, such as changing rooms and toilets, which align with their gender,” according to The Pink News. It also states that trans people can be barred from spaces based on “biological sex.”
Prior to the release of the guide, the U.K. Supreme Court ruled in the case of For Women Scotland vs Scottish Ministers, defining “sex” as meaning biological sex only.

“Under the leadership of ‘Baroness’ Falkner, the EHRC has transformed itself into a hate group that wants to shred our rights and liberties,” a spokesperson for BASH BACK says. “We will not accept that. Despite intense legal and political pressure they still intend to push their guidance—segregating trans people out of all single-sex spaces—to government, in a cynical attempt to erase us from public life.
“In 2022, the EHRC endorsed conversion therapy and opposed reform to the Gender Recognition Act,” the spokesperson adds. “And ‘Baroness’ Falkner’s overt transphobia created a hostile ‘anti-LGBT’ environment which caused many staff to leave, and yet others called ‘the enemy of human rights.’
“The EHRC has described human rights as basic rights and freedoms that belong to every human in the world. But they demand certain rights be denied from trans people—denied from us specifically. Are we not human?
“We demand that businesses, universities, and sports organizations dump the EHRC’s hateful guidance. This is just the beginning—We can only secure our freedoms through constant resistance. We will not stop until we are free.”
