Labour doesn't allow hate speech. What about your nasty list?

seafoodeatit · 29/01/2018 13:28

I think it's telling and disturbing how some are trying to take the female out of woman so as to alter the definition, it's not done out of inclusion either.

The dictionary is transphobic.

Cross post with many it seems!

Just heard the preview ' it's an all women list not all female' apparently.

Ekphrasis · 29/01/2018 13:17

This might already have been posted, but just thought it was interesting. From the Mail. I had suspected that JC was very pleased with himself about how many young people turned out to vote for him in the last election.

"It is my contention that young people today are being brainwashed and turned into Orwellian servants of the state for a much larger agenda. It has been suggested by others that the assault on sexual distinctions and on the perception of basic biological reality is part of a game to give absolute power to the state in the interpretation of reality itself. If the state can force people to admit that men are women, they can force them to believe anything. War is peace. Slavery is freedom. Men are women. "

Thanks for posting, I'm listening to world at 1 one too now.

@Feared, I hope it's more than just Labour. Need to keep reminding them it's all parties, and led by Tories.

Thanks, Capn! - I liked this comment...

"What this means is - I don’t have an opinion on this issue so I will leave a foot in both camps in order to appear as reasonable as possible, therefore maintaining the illusion that I am a reasonable. compassionate, intelligent politician. Meanwhile, orders have been issued and names are being taken ..."

Infringing not unfringing! Jeez!

Mner · 29/01/2018 11:27

NotTerf I have had two responses - both said its not definite yet. One said 'transwomen are women' and a small proportion will not infringe on our rights. (WTF?! - A small proportion are unfringing on our rights!)

The second said don't believe everything you read on social media. I said you can't blame social media for wording on Labour's website.

I have responded to both.

RedToothBrush · 29/01/2018 10:54

I've not got one. Hoping someone else might have.

Its a Lucy Bannerman piece, so probably worth a read.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 29/01/2018 10:35

Any sharetoken?

The LGBT group have tweeted a sort of apology to him.

DrudgeJedd · 28/01/2018 23:51
