Momentum hate women, obviously. I quite like DA. Interestingly there's a slight effort to detach and distance down at the bottom of the article, though no criticism of ATH.

Thanks Lass. Good link.

We were delighted (and relieved) that our meeting was not disrupted by those people who are determined to have a “debate” about trans people’s right to exist

This is bizarre. When has this ever happened? It's the other way round. Likewise the extremely odd reference criticising sterilisation, when ATH advocates ... sterilising kids with drugs and hormones.

Yes, from screenshots, how did DA not know.

Absolutely brilliant that little meetings and lies like this are now being exposed in the mainstream press.

This is the meeting as described by Momentum Hackney. It specifically refers to Action for Transhealth being involved and fund raising.

It's good to see Stephanie Davies- Arai From Trangender Trend being quoted in the article. I'm glad they are getting some publicity now.

That article makes no sense. I mean that from the point of view of Diane Abbott, not the Mail. How did she not know?

The Shadow Home Secretary spoke at a meeting last month, organised by Labour's hard-Left faction Momentum, in aid of Action for Trans Health (ATH)

A spokeswoman for Ms Abbott said the MP had 'no information that this event is either linked with or intended to raise money for Action for Trans Health'

She added that there was no indication anyone from ATH would be present at the meeting and therefore that 'if any such fundraising took place, Ms Abbott was not aware of it'.
