A slimy fker, no doubt about it. I can’t warm to him at all.
They really don’t like trans people. I thought my MP (Antonia Antoniazzi) was doing a half decent job; relatively quiet in Westminster, avoiding the culture wars and available to her constituents. But she couldn’t wait to stand up in the commons and deny trans women the right to be who they are.
I lent them my vote to keep the Tories out, but won’t be making that mistake again unless they have a complete clear out and reboot. |  |

Roll on the Corbyn/Green alliance!
Whoops sorry I nearly forgot that they're all terrorist sympathising antisemites! |  |

You mean things like this (from a Guardian article on McSweeney et al).
"After a few months working from a park bench, the group funded a small office in Vauxhall, and soon it reached out to former Labour advisers to work alongside them with a focus on online antisemitism. In an early review, they identified problem posts in hundreds of Facebook groups with links to either the party or left wing politics. Some of these were aimed at Labour’s female Jewish MPs. They then farmed out the posts they uncovered to journalists who were themselves reporting on rising evidence of antisemitism on the left." [Post edited 3 Sep 21:44]

It also led to a disproportionate number of Jewish members being investigated or expelled for antisemitism. Or being required to undergo antisemitism training.
To my mind this is completely bonkers. [Post edited 3 Sep 21:34]

What did she say that you took issue with?
Genuinely asking. |  |

She gleefully celebrated to high court ruling that denied trans women the right to be viewed as women legally. And attacked the concept of gender ideology. So effectively the right to view yourself how you would like to be viewed irrespective of the legal position. | |

Personally, I have always had my doubts about someone who when President of the National Union of Students supported tuition fees. [Post edited 3 Sep 21:44]

the right of trans women to be who they are is enshrined in equality law and harassment law. they are legally protected from discrimination and harassment and have exactly the same human right protections as everyone else. they have no fewer rights and no more.
what they can't do - and what no male can do - is claim sexed based rights and protections which are legally assigned to biological women. they can adopt the gender identity they choose - and receive full legal protection in so doing - but they can't claim to be biological women or claim the legal rights reserved to biological women.
it sounds as if your mp was spot on - no one is attempting to prevent gender non-conforming males from "being who they are" but in the context of discrimination law they can't claim to be something that they are not. |  |

Perhaps when she attacked gender ideology, she wasn't attacking trans people and how they want to identify, but attacked the concept of telling kids they are born in the wrong body if they don't conform to male and female stereotypes, or the concept behind the now-closed Tavistock clinic. | |

or indeed the intensely misogynist concept that the distinct life experience of biological women is so utterly insignificant that all a male needs to do is say that he 'feels like a woman' to instantly becomes indistinguishable from one. | |

Your previous post was measured, but now you're stretching.
I don't think any of the trans women who I know are in any way promoting "the intensely misogynist concept that the distinct life experience of biological women is so utterly insignificant". |  | | |
