Julie Bindel - Stonewall's Response
http://www.gendertrust.org.uk/n2/newsletter/081015NL.html10/15/2008
Following the receipt of the letter we sent to Ben Summerskill, Cheif
Executive on this matter he was in touch with the Trust.
He acknowledged that he was aware that the decision of Julie Bindel
being in the nominees list has been controversial and that they had
received a volume of complaints on the matter.
However he went on to explain that nominations had had to meet
criteria which related to the work that a nominee had been involved in
during the preceding year, and whilst acknowledging that Ms Bindel has
written material in previous years that is of concern to the trans
community, judges were expected to work strictly within this criteria.
