Mr Pollard has made his feelings quite clear. Perhaps you’d like to respond?

Whoever DeDe is on Luke Pollard's twitter thread, they are awesome. Labour are a fucking embarrassment.

StroppyWoman · 27/08/2018 14:00

Labour are such a train wreck. It's heartbreaking, they ought to be going for the tories and challenging Brexit. Instead they're piddling about, infighting and spouting bollocks.

Yes, Luke, clearly that's the priority that you ought to be focusing on while your party is bleeding members and we're headed for a no-deal Brexit. Well done you.

The Party of the Terminally Stupid cannot bleed membership quickly enough.

Its always a fucking afterthought

Person A...transwomen are women

Person B....what about transmen

Person A....well obviously they are men, goes without saying

Disingenuous fuckwits

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 27/08/2018 13:51

Why do they NEVER say transmen are men unless they are called out on it

Disingenuous i call that Hmm

Does Mr Pollard (a gay man) challenge and call out those gay men who aren't attracted to transmen and wouldn't contemplate a relationship with a transman?

On the grounds that 'transmen are men' must be the corollary of his first statement?

He ought to try it sometime Grin

Or read Jonny Best, Mr Pollard.

Thanks for the link!

TranswimminAreWimmin is a political statement, that's all. People do not really believe it, they feel that that is the Right Thing to say right now.

DelectableDetriment · 27/08/2018 11:49

I'm very disappointed. A mature balance needs to be sought between safeguarding trans people and women alike. More than many other MP's he was well positioned to walk that line and to have been a respected, unifying, wise voice working with constituents.

He's shown himself to be thoroughly naïve politically and under researched on the subject, for taking sides in such a divisive, reactive way at this point in the national debate. He's bringing heat not light and that benefits absolutely nobody.

The famed misogynistic Dr has retweet Pollard. That says enough for me.

Pollard has still not condemned the attack on the grade I listed building. I’m disgusted by his wilful ignorance of targeted hate in his constituency.

IAmLurkacus · 27/08/2018 11:22

Well there’s yet another reason not to vote labour.

VickyEadie · 27/08/2018 11:13

I don't do Twitter, but I'm encouraged that some people have already taken him on.
