Linzi Smith Case - A Triumph for Neutrality

Oh the "they/thems" and the "xi/xirs", the Gusset Fumblers and Pooners, along with their queer allies amongst the ridiculous spicy straights, the Vichy gays and the non - binary fruit loops are gonna be spitting feathers over the ruling in Linzi Smith v Northumbria Police - which today put an end to shenanigans from EDI/DEI cultists of all hues in the public sector, in fact any organisation which has a duty of impartiality.

A tremendous win.

Win and then gloat, yes, the High Court’s July 2025 ruling has delivered a resounding affirmation of the duty of impartiality for UK public bodies. This landmark decision, sparked by the courageous gender-critical campaigner Linzi Smith, marks a turning point, ensuring that public institutions, especially police forces, uphold neutrality in contentious social debates. It’s a moment to celebrate, as the verdict not only strengthens the fight against the LGBTQ+ but also the fetid EDI/DEI long con and sets a clear precedent for accountability, with serious consequences for those who falter.

The case sprang from Smith’s bold challenge to Northumbria Police’s uniformed participation in a Newcastle Pride march, which she argued signalled support for transgender ideology, an insane belief system as most of you know and part of the EDI/DEI portfolio of piffle.

The court’s triumphant ruling confirmed that such actions breached the force’s duty to remain impartial, as enshrined in the Police (Conduct) Regulations 2020 and the College of Policing’s Code of Ethics. These mandate officers to act with fairness and avoid any perception of taking sides. The court also celebrated Smith’s vindication by criticising the force’s misguided investigation into her gender-critical social media posts, wrongly treated as a potential hate crime, spotlighting a failure to uphold neutrality.

This ruling is a beacon of clarity, proclaiming that police must steer clear of actions that could seem politically aligned, particularly in events like Pride, which the court recognised as potentially ideological. Public trust, the heart of the UK’s policing by consent model, has been eroded, may this start the rebuilding of that trust.

The ripple effects of this legal kicking extend far beyond the police, this is likely to send a shiver down the spines of all public bodies, and especially the EDI/DEI grifters embedded in the organisations governed by the Nolan Principles or laws like the BBC Charter and Education Act 1996.

With a bit of luck will cast a spotlight on activities like Black Lives Matter (BLM) campaigns or critical race theory and decolonisation efforts that risk appearing non-impartial, and we may do away with that putrid nonsense too for none of it can survive in an environment of impartiality, and amen to that.

  • Schools, now under the spotlight, will need to think twice about Pride-related activities to maintain neutrality.

  • NHS Trusts, often adorned with rainbow symbols, must ensure they don’t appear to favour one side of the gender debate.

  • Even Ofcom, guarding the BBC’s “due impartiality,” will feel the devastating impact of this precedent, ensuring neutrality across the public sector.

Yes, this victory comes with a stern reminder, to them and a whole host of others. Failing to uphold impartiality has weighty consequences. Public bodies risk legal action, as Smith’s triumph proves, forcing policy changes or justifications.

Ombudsman complaints could now spark investigations, so for me the fun starts here. Legal challenges under the Equality Act 2010 or Human Rights Act 1998 loom large, promising costly litigation for those who stray, and I for one am here for it.

The case is a cause for celebration, illuminating the path to clearer impartiality guidelines, as urged by His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary. It paves the way for updated police regulations and fairer handling of non-crime hate incidents, safeguarding free speech and neutrality.

Let’s rejoice in this milestone, as public bodies, police, schools, NHS, and beyond, will feel the sting of this ruling over the coming months and years.

This is huge, in no uncertain terms and woe betide those organisations who ignore it.

Let the eradication begin.

It's been a long time coming.

Remember take legal advice. (I am no lawyer)
