Oh, right, there’s no possible reason to think that ACE didn’t make it plain to the London Community Fund that they shouldn’t have awarded the grant to the LGB Alliance. From that report in The Guardian about Fahmy again:
Denise Fahmy’s claim at Leeds employment tribunal related to the fallout over the London Community Fund’s (LCF) decision to award a grant drawn from an Arts Council England (ACE) fund to the gender-critical LGB Alliance. The grant was later suspended.
At a meeting in April last year to discuss the matter, ACE’s deputy chief executive, Simon Mellor, expressed the opinion that the LGB Alliance “has a history of anti-trans activity” and that it had been a mistake for the fund to make the award. Fahmy, who said 411 people attended the drop-in session, was the only attender to challenge the view that LGB Alliance was anti-transgender.
When the ones with the funds voice their displeasure you can be sure it matters to all involved, including the LCF. That’s why Fahmy is saying she’s asking the U.K. Secretary of State for Culture to again look at her complaint that the Arts Council was biased against the LGB Alliance.
