- An East Riding of Yorkshire council worker, James Orwin, was fired after protesting against the use of pronouns in his email signature.
He objected to council chief executive Caroline Lacey's suggestion that employees consider adding pronouns to their email signatures.
Ben Jones from Free Speech Union joins Talk’s Alex Phillips to discuss this further, with Alex saying transgender ideology pronoun policing is a form of bullying.

It's compelled speech and compelled belief. Employees should have the right to opt out of this nonsense.
Adult human male should be very relevant!
It means the he/him is natural, and uncontroversial.
Which excludes the ones for whom this isn’t true. Sucks for them, I suppose.
Because Adult human male/female is the reality for 95% of the population.
@@lynnm6413 being very normal and natural is very very controversial. Being sane and peaceful is a hate crime. Outrage culture, wokeism and Islamism is the new moral standard.
Funnily enough freedom from compelled speech is outlined by the ECHR.
If you can get people banned/cancelled/arrested/jailed for hurting your feelings, you are not the oppressed... you are the oppressor.
@@lynnm6413Adult human male/female is 100% of the population. Even with the negligible amount of intersex people. Their chromosomes dictate the sex they were born to be, if the development in the womb had gone according to plan.
All this "celebrating diversity" and "being inclusive" - seems to me an excuse for bullying. Not acceptable. It's more than word games it's psychological games .....messing with people's heads
They DON'T celebrate diversity though. It's racism and sexism writ large. ALL of it against one particular group.
The true face of Discrimination, Exclusion and Intolerance (DEI) should be broadcast far and wide!
Couldn't agree more. This pronoun rubbish is mandatory for the loony left and hilarious to the based Right. Oops. My political bias is showing.
Women were more than happy to jump on the 'rainbow' bandwagon just to dump all over heterosexual men only to have the 'trans' mob hijack it and now these same women want the men they dumped on to defend them from the very people they jumped onboard with. Ironic huh!
I think if the employees work has and is satisfactory they had no right to sack him I'm sorry he lost his case on a political harassment item which has nothing to do with his work. I think he is well out of that woke toxic workplace and hope he gets another job. It is appalling how many are being attracted due to this woke rubbish that has been allowed to take over so many places that should be caring for people as people not as some ideology that has our futures in danger while it is allowed to remain in place let's get hard headed and say no to this rubbish.

Woke logic: We're so diverse and inclusive, we'll sack anyone who's not the same as us.
Also woke logic - gender is a social construct and social constructs are harmful and oppressive, so naturally we demand everyone adhere to our system of pronouns, which is demonstrably a social construct
So that's not inclusive is it , so they should sack themselves
you nailed it exactly.
Well done James for standing your ground, sorry that the system has failed you.

@@woodlandlady7011 I think he means the only 2 genders/sexes.
Gender is a word I stopped using as I was told it could be anything you want(!) so I use sex as they can be only two sexes.
Ah but you forgot people who are BORN intersexed - people who are BORN expressing genitalia from BOTH sexes at birth. They do exist and they are a third gender and a third sex. Now because our society cannot accept such things, parents of the Intersexed person and the doctor attending the birth will operate on that person and decide, against the Intersexed person’s free will due to that person being a newborn, to ARBITRARILY CHOOSE the gender they think the Intersexed person should be. That is a decision the Intersexed individual should make on their own when they are old enough to make that free will decision themselves. It is, after all, their body that they were born with and they should have full control over their body. So you are completely in error to write that there are only two sexes and two genders. 😀
Haven't Councils got better things to do "LIKE LOOKING AFTER THE PEOPLE THEY WERE ELECTED BY"
But surely someone is free to "identify" as an "adult human male"...?
It's all a load of complete nonsense! For a woman in her fifties, no one; I mean, no one, will ever force me to refer to a single person by plural pronouns. I was taught grammar at school, and am not about to change now.
Completely agree.
I`ve despised Councils and their ways ever since my much older business partners wife, as a long serving Ealing London Council manager had to eventually tell off a black girl for constantly being late. She went to the diversity manager saying she didn`t like her managers attitude. Result, this loveliest of people was asked to take early retirement.
FFS it’s gone absolutely frigging mental. I can not stand all this woke shite.
It will back fire on them big time soon, when the only employees they have are the lazy thick ones that they bend over backwards for.
That’s utterly disgraceful. Doing the same with criminality. If you can be considered a victim those in charge are over the top in trying make you one, even if you actually are the bully.
Being late is unfair to other workers..

James Orwin, Shame on the tribunal. Upholding complete and utter nonsense.
Ah, but they had to decide if he had gone against what he was asked to do not if it made sense
The problem here is not just the pronouns. The problem is being forced to use them by directors and chief executives that no one vote for to run the council.
Members of the public in any given council area don’t get a choice of those at the top of the councils that make the decisions that cost the taxpayers money or how the council is run and by who.
They are not held accountable for their actions or idiotic ideas.
I identify as a robot, imagine my guilt when I'm forced to lie and click on the box 'I am not a robot'
That’s awful. 😢 Such discrimination.

Yet you are not forced to lie, you have the choice to tick the box or not and you choice to tick the box
@@LowlyEidolon but he is forced to lie because otherwise he will be locked out of so many things for no good reason
Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful. The stupid law should be changed.
There is NO such law!
If the words 'adult human male' can be seen as offensive, then anything can be seen as offensive, including existence.....
Your comment containts the word "male". I am offended. Is it still 999 to report hate crimes?
I was asked at a medical centre my pronouns i answered normal man. It made my day to see the types that were offended😅
Normal means predictable and boring so
It’s like living in Orwell’s 1984
Its actually scary
It is not "like"...we ARE !
So in the name of inclusion they exclude others hypocritical
It’s hypocritical craziness 😡
Its more in the name of inclusion, they dont want people taking the piss. If he had just put down his pronouns or even argued against putting any, he wouldn't have been fired or lost the the tribunal. Its because of the way hes gone about it, treating it like a joke, thats cause his problem.
@@branbroken are you for real 😳
@clivebonneywell6967 why wouldnt i be, he had clear choices. Agree and disclose his pronouns, disagree and resuse to disclose. He chose an option that showed he didnt take it seriously and indirectly invalidated others.

The worker should claim unfair dismissal due to discrimination.
When I started working in the civil service in 1993, I joined a campaign to be allowed to have email signatures, and signatures on letters that were completely gender neutral. We wanted to drop the Mr, Ms, Miss, Mrs in the signatures to avoid bias. We managed to do that and life became a bit easier, especially for women working in a male dominated area. But now, the signifiers are back in the form of pronouns. And they're not even accurate in some cases! The demand (or suggestion) to put pronouns on signatures is a modern day shibboleth, designed to see who is in agreement with the ideology and who is not. It's the very opposite of inclusive.
So you are partly to blame then? In what way is putting a word used for years as best practice in business (like Mr/Mrs) bias? So that decision was made to help the feminists who felt they were being discriminated against was it? You reap what you sow. All these changes of things that have been around decades don't necessarily mean they're better. They were included for a reason. And what does it matter whether someone wants to address themselves as Mr or Mrs? Not even all women are feminists are they? So that decision was made to placate a certain percentage (feminists) in our society who may be in a minority, just like these crazed gender benders are a minority in our society these days. But what is now happening especially in the public sector is the ideology is being forced down people's throats so they have to accept it or lose their jobs. It's a good thing that the people running our public services and business didn't have that attitude when you decided to support the feminists isn't it? Otherwise, trying to change it might have lost you your job.
I got a letter from the council signed Susan Penelope Smith. I don't know if it's a man or a woman. What should I do ?😎
@@jimosullivan1389 According to the Transgender mob you don't have to do anything because according to them there are no differences between a man and a woman. A man can be a woman and a woman can be a man. Therefore, as we all think, look and feel the same why do we need to know who one is writing to? For a small percentage of the world population (transgenders are probably less than 1% of the whole planet's population), so as to make these poor darlings feel inclusive when most of them (not all) voluntarily decide they want to be a different gender, hundreds of years of history and precedent have to be pushed aside by the rest of us. Utter tosh!!
So you can make up any old rubbish and demand it be used as your pronouns, but as soon as you use the scientific term, you're sacked. Absolute madness.
Edit.. maybe we should all just go full throttle with the most ridiculous pronouns and watch society eat itself alive it would also take away the attention from these people that they so desperately crave because if everyone's special then no one is 😅😂
yes. this was my thought too. " play them at their own game" en masse
At my workplace, I've been sent more than one email over the past few years demanding I "complete" my "personal profile" on their Workspace app. As I feel my sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, let alone my "preferred pronouns" have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with the amount of work I can and am able to do on a shift, my personal profile *is* complete, thanks.
And guess why you havent been fired over it, because you are allowed to refuse to provide any information on your protected characteristics. It would be a different story if you went and filled it in with joke answers that shows you dont take it seriously. Thats why the guy they are discussing lost at tribunal.
@@branbroken Yes, exactly. I haven't done that because I've never felt the need to do that myself. But the demanding tone in the emails get rather annoying. I conveniently forget about receiving them having already filed them under 'B'. I'm not the only one who refuses to comply and it wouldn't bother me if I was.
@Psammead21 no, i get it. Im constantly getting requests from work to complete equality and diversity form too and i wont fill it in either and i wouldnt even if i was one of the criteria they are looking to meet diversity points on, its my private business. They don't need to know.
@@branbroken 100%
"adult human male" is not a joke, that is an assumption that it's some kind of joke he made.
it seems deadly serious to me.
it seems as clear a description as he could have given, considering the question had a range of answers, a range that is seemingly vast, and ever-expanding.
who made up the list?
is it an evolving list?
does it encompass people's good-faith efforts to expand the list to include them?
are they to be excluded?
Sounds like grounds for an unfair dismissal trial. Forget the tribunal.
Unfair dismissal claims, are heard at Tribunals.
Hmmm... working places should be places to 'work' , not to 'woke'.
The only pronouns needed when talking to someone are "you", "I/me" and "we/us".
And the names of individuals 😸
Pronouns have been around since the English language came to be.
We had a private consultancy company employed by our company, they emailed every manager in my department and the person sending the email had the pronoun identifiers printed after their name.
Every single person in my department ignored and didn’t answer the email.
Throughout my life, I've been mis-named (Mike instead of Michael) and mis-nationalitied (English, Australian, South African or Scottish instead of Irish). I've never fired or cancelled anyone, in spite of such heinous behaviour.
Whilst I support trans people living their best lives, it stops when it comes to changing my use of the English language to nonsensical pronouns, to accommodate individual preferences. Language rules serve a purpose (to help each of us communicate with others) so those who expect every single person they meet to remember their chosen pronouns are deluded, at best. Most of us are too busy working, raising families, and endeavouring to survive in this crazy world.
I hope the voters find out who was pushing this non-sense in the council and vote them out.
If the description was about himself how could they sack him for his own identity? That is exclusionary and undermining his identity.
Because adult human male is not a pronoun. If he had played ball and just put he/him thered not have been an issue, if he had refused to disclose pronouns on the email signature he may have been questioned on this and why he wasnt following policy however you generally have a protected right not to identify/disclose that information and if he was fired he would then have won the tribunal. What you can't do is what this guy did and turn it into a joke and invalidate others.
@@branbroken Who says it isn't? If you can make one up why isn't it acceptable to use this?
It is not a right... It's an imposition.
@@branbrokenI don't see what he put as a joke. He stated facts, leaving others to decide on the appropriate pronoun for someone described in that way.
@@daveofyorkshire301yes, what i wonder is, who made up the list of " acceptable " ones then?
@@CL-he4jz That's the trick, there is no list of acceptable ones, it's fluid and subjective to be weaponised whichever way you turn...
What a TOTAL disgusting DISGRACE, the judge should also be dismissed, this madness has gone too far and this sets a completely unfair precedent as it defies reality and the public who do NOT want this pushed onto them! Appeal or take to a higher authority - maybe the court of so-called Human Rights will be more realistic?
ECHR details that compelled speech is an infringement of human rights, so if this guy had simply refused he would have won. But because he essentially trolled them, he won’t now win. This should be a warning to people. Simply refuse and elaborate, but don’t fire back and you will win. If you try to be clever you waive that.
Let's hope this serves as a warning to those unwillingly affected - it seems that it is a case of refusing then, but if pushed by management, do not elaborate and just repeat your refusal? It would be good to know how you get out of a position like this in writing. What exact phrase would suit in rejecting a pronoun email imposition 'offer' from a council or official body? ie;
(1) "Thank you but I do not use pro-nouns"? (2) "I believe in freedom of choice and do not use pronouns"? (3) "Thank you for the update, I do not wish to use pronouns personally"? An exact legal phrase agreeable to an appeal court would be good to know. Can a council however INSIST on you addressing colleagues by their prounoun, if given, and EVEN if you have stated your right and wish not to participate? This is important.
@garryokeefe1605 everyone uses pronouns, you cant avoid them. You can refuse to disclose your prefered pronouns, in which case anyone you interact with will infer them, so don't go being an arse if the pronouns you prefer are not used after refusing to disclose. You may not find disclosure of pronouns so silly if someone constantly usd one you dont identify as.
@@garryokeefe1605 I would take the ‘prefer not to say’ route. If it is included in your job application process, if it is included in applications for anything in the council itself I.e housing etc, you should be within your rights to simply say ‘no, I prefer not to say.’ Then, if pushed you are now being compelled.
@@branbroken Thanks Bran, but no one uses them in my office while I'm freelance anyway and don't do any major interfacoing with anyone.

its too funny isn't it. if i signed my name Richard, why would i add a pronoun. its bizarre. So, what does “he/him/his” mean in a signature? It means the person who sent you the message wants to be referred to as “he” or “him” when using pronouns. If you talk about something that the sender possesses, you would use the pronoun “his” to describe it.
SERIOUSLY ITS TOO FUNNY. I am so so glad i am 73, disabled and on my way out of this madness. so what is a signature? a person's name written in a distinctive way as a form of identification in authorizing a cheque or document or concluding a letter. so why do you need to use pronouns?

They need to tell me what to put and not leave it to some feelings that they imagine I have when I don't
He needs to sue for discrimination.
Unfair dismissal case right there.
Take the individuals responsible to the cleaners, not the council, as the council will use taxpayers money to pay legal fees and any settlement
In these kind cuddly and inclusive work places, do they still treat you with kindness cuddliness and inclusion if you do nothing but drink tea and dunk biscuits all day long? I’m deadly curious!
We’re not defined only by gender and sex preferences it’s actually no one’s business - people can find me as they meet me
Pronoun Mafia
Can he be sacked if he hasn't previously been given verbal and written warnings. This is hardly gross misconduct.
This surely must go against the Equality Act.
Not really he wasnt being fired for being he/him, he was fired for making a mockery of this process thats trying to be inclusive, in essence he was acting the bully invalidating those who choose to use pronouns he doesnt beleive they should. Now i wouldnt want to be putting my pronouns on a work email signature, but i wouldnt go putting somthing in as a joke mocking others that chooose too.
@@branbroken His belief that it's silly and the right to express it are protected under the act.
@@branbroken . If a man can lie and put she/her, then a factual statement shouldn't have any issue. Doesn't matter of the intent, as that is not provable.
@@branbroken I don't see anything silly as facts were stated. Leaving others to make the actual decision. 🤷
They should be well and truly mocked. Moronic idiocy@@branbroken
Feelings have become more important than truth! More important than law and more important than common sense.
