To, Jo Cox anyone who decides they are a women in leadership.

Apparently their tag line is

The Jo Cox Women in Leadership Programme is a training programme for passionate and experienced women members who are ready to lead in the Labour Party.

The Labour party hate women. They dont want them in leadership roles. They dont value womens opinions and voices.

After 22 years as a labour party member I have cancelled my membership.

Seems like there are 60 people there.

And 2 of them are men who identify as women.

So that is 3.3% of the spaces already given over to men who identify as women. And given how regularly we are told that it is a tiny percentage of society, they seem to be much over-represented. Sheer talent must account for it, I suppose.

My advice to the Women in Leadership programme? Do not allow other people to dictate your own agenda.

I know many other women graduated but the fact that 1 women missed out on a place in favour of a man saddens and disgusts me.

I keep hoping that Jess Phillips will say something but there's not a peep. She can't be in favour of it or we would know about it.
