There's no faith left to lose, Chris.

If they demonstrate they've figured out what a woman is and stop chasing woke points via TRAs I might be listening again though...

There's a huge internal debate going on in the Green Party right now about women's issues. Don't lose faith - please get in touch if you are a member (former, current or future) who wants to be involved.

Some suggestion that Aimee Challoner is no longer Green Party LGBTQIA+ spokesperson...

@newtlover - the block list just blocks your access to the person who uses it - so they can stay in their bubble
However...
They are increasingly getting people banned from twitter altogether:

I'm not au fait with twitter
does this block list mean the blocked people cannot use twitter at all? or is it just that (certain) people can choose not to see tweets from those on the list?

There's a ppc from the Greens speaking at the Newcastle WPUK event. I'm going along to hear what they have to say

Gosh that's horrendous. The idea that block lists keep people safe online is deranged. Women get blocked simple for asking questions, it seems. We aren't a threat. It is totally alien to me that you can be in politics and blocking people because of simply wanting to shut down debate.

Also - I wasn't aware of this:

Seems so!

Are you all aware of this?

In short Aimee (Green Equalities Spokesperson) is the admin behind @BlockTerfs on Twitter which now blocks nearly 30,000 users (mainly women) from speaking out on Trans issues/self Id.

Yes that's 30,000 accounts silenced.

Hardly equality is it?

Thanks for the link hipster - there's a whiff of fascism to their policies...I don't think they would listen to anyone tbh, there seems to be a woke infestation in all main parties.

And this policy here is very confusing:
RR507 The Green Party also supports an end to the ban on civil partnerships being conducted in places of worship and the ban on same-sex marriages being conducted in Anglican churches, whilst recognising it is up to religious bodies to make this decision and not for the state to dictate to them prohibitions on civil partnerships and/or marriage.

They will end the ban but it's up to churches to decide? So which is it?

Hi @Justabunchofcunts
Your name sums up the Green Party from my experience. Here's a link to my thread on the subject:

borntobequiet · 30/03/2018 19:46

But wouldn't go near the GP ever. At least LDs don't call me a non man.

witchhuntwatch · 30/03/2018 19:32

The self-id stuff is Tory legislation!

Alwaysinmyheart · 08/02/2018 12:11

ItsAllGoingToBeFine that's an excellent article you shared, so well reasoned. Thanks for sharing!

Everyonematters · 08/02/2018 10:37

This is interesting. I am trying to avoid any personal comments about people involved in this, they may be used against us in our argument.

BeyondWitchbitchterf · 08/02/2018 10:30

Aimee was also the person who was on the LBC Nick Ferrari phone in about Women's Aid with Dr Nicola Williams, earlier in the week.

Came across as rather thick, tbh.

Everyonematters · 08/02/2018 10:26

Interesting. She is also on the Facebook thread, talking about TERFs

BeyondWitchbitchterf · 08/02/2018 10:08

It originated from Aimee Chanellor, then the LGBT rep...

Young green women then used it too

This is the message. The comments are terrifying.

Someone from a Surrey Green Party is speaking up. Anyone who has been feeling concerned about this, now is the time to speak up in support - before it is too late.

North Surrey Green Party - you can find them on Facebook and add a positive comment.

There are some chilling comments regarding free speech on there.

It seems to have originated with a member of a young women’s Green Party group on Twitter. Couldn’t find any reference in their policy bumph.

GP lack of interest in women’s rights/sexism needs examination; the non-man silliness is a distraction.

Mner · 02/02/2018 19:19

Where are the non-man terms used now because I looked for the other day and could only see the transgender policy above?

As a Green Party member, their whole transgender policy leaves me fuming but I am completely flummoxed as to what to do about it. I am considering leaving but to go where?
