LM now on twitter asking for financial contributions to their deadname PayPal account.

I've taken screenshots.

I don't think any of us are going to have much luck with UK Labour. And I say that as a member of thirty-plus years.

They have the (white, middle class) youth vote sewn up and they are also drawing a large proportion of the new activists from this demographic. They won't do anything to risk that. And, as we know, this demographic has been thoroughly brainwashed on the gender issue, especially at universities.

This is why the manifesto put £9bn into cancelling student loans and only £2bn into reversing cuts to tax credits and universal credit, which disproportionately affect women. And this is also why they won't be doing anything other than support the trans agenda.

It is what it is. And I very much doubt that Angela Rayner thinks trans-identified males are actually women, or that radfems are evil bigots, any more than we do. It's electoral calculus, I'm afraid.

Also that is classic projection complaining about abuse - seen it all the time

MsDeerheart · 12/12/2017 09:48

I didn’t really stick my neck out - I had one rational conversation- Angela Ito think takes a bit of time to process and may not be wholly lost I have to say that saying that transwomen are men is taken as rude and offensive and really doesn’t help -it means it’s easier for people to dismiss what you have to say as transphobic- I had to say a number of times that I understood that some people do feel they are in the wrong sex body - I think as Jess Phillips said this needs less heat and more light -

MrGHardy · 12/12/2017 09:47

They need to keep repeating the “abuse” mantra to position themselves as poor, vulnerable victims. It’s sick given the amount of actual abuse coming out of their own ranks.

GretchenFranklin · 12/12/2017 09:38

Also disappointed with Angela Rayner.

I don't understand women (mainly) accused of being transphobic, trolls and haters for asking reasonable and frankly urgent questions about GRA.

Nobody that I've seen on twitter is particularly rude. Surely to say Transwomen are men is factually correct and to say otherwise is simply disingenuous?

ArcheryAnnie · 12/12/2017 09:32

Bloody well done, MsDeerheart. It's not easy speaking up when you know the reaction can be so bad.

BeyondAssignation · 12/12/2017 08:02

MsDeerhart, well done on sticking your neck out! Flowers

Datun · 12/12/2017 07:58

MsDeerheart

It’s understandable that the general public don’t yet get this, but it’s quite astonishing that people who who support it don’t. Well done.

WTAFisthisshit · 12/12/2017 07:51

Thank you ms deerhart I've just seen Angela Rayner on twitter/Instagram with Lily. Having previously really liked her I'm disappointed to find she has no critical thinking skills and have gone right off her.

Well done MsDeerhart!!

MsDeerheart · 12/12/2017 03:33

Hmm limited - pointed out would apply to people working in refuges and also had no idea about the bullying of the other women’s officer that led to her resignation

Datun · 12/12/2017 00:16

MsDeerheart

Before you spoke to them, did this person really not have any clue about the implications of the GRA?

MsDeerheart · 12/12/2017 00:13

Anyway went to labour women’s event - LM was there - didn’t talk to them - Angela Rayner spoke she was great but did talk about how awful transphobia was - which got lots of applause- I didn’t - this is probably outing me - had a long discussion with someone about why I had a problem with GRA and managed to
make my point I think

MakeMisogynyAHateCrime · 11/12/2017 20:02

I think we need people screenshooting every single tweet these people put out. And Owen Jones who has a canny way of getting stuff deleted.

WTAFisthisshit · 11/12/2017 19:41

And WTAF is this? Seriously what is going on? Have the far right infiltrated the Labour Party to ensure they never gain power? I realise twitter is a cesspit that's best ignored but this is spilling into mainstream what IS happening?

This just takes the piss now

Well, you’d think, but there appears to be a thing for amending history and expecting everyone else to go along with it.

AnachronisticCorpse · 11/12/2017 19:31

Aaaaand I’ve been blocked. I wasn’t even particularly contentious.

Datun · 11/12/2017 19:23

Not at all. Twitter is a worldwide forum, the most public place you can be.

If you don’t want it out there, don’t say it.

hipsterfun · 11/12/2017 19:21

Do you think MN will be asked to delete this thread with its record of the tweets in question?

itsbetterthanabox · 11/12/2017 18:54

Grabby prick

Ereshkigal · 11/12/2017 18:48

I'd be happy with Charlie doing an episode on it too. Or they could team up as per Nathan Barley Grin

FattyCat · 11/12/2017 18:43

Ereshkigal

More like an episode of black mirror where you wake up in a world where women rule but they all have cocks and have sex with robots.

Ereshkigal · 11/12/2017 18:36

Maybe it's a new Chris Morris series? Brass eye rebooted.

I would LOVE Chris Morris to cover transactivism.

PencilsInSpace · 11/12/2017 18:30

Looks like Lily has deleted the tweets. Begging for paypal donations via twitter will join the list of things that are too mean to mention / never happened / brother done it Hmm

Lily wouldn't get housed by the council anayway - no 'priority need'.
