I went to see my (male) constituency MP the other day.

He's surprisingly gender critical! I didn't have to explain the issues to him, he gets it.

He says he speaks up for women's rights in Parliament, on this issue. But it makes it tough when he's a man speaking up for women's rights and then female MPs - often from his own party even - disagree.

He said it seemed to him many of them are poorly informed and have been got at by the trans lobby.

The women in Parliament really should know what's going on here.

So, do you have a female MP? Have you been to see them yet? If not, how about emailing them this week and asking for an appointment?

See, DonnaBe, the thing we have on our side is once people see the emperor has no clothes on, there's no unseeing it.

It's a one way street.

And - cult? You're projecting again.

Sadly, I have a man - useless!! One illiterate letter in reply to 4 I have sent him.

Shame that some of them are listening to the trans lobby. We are 51% and will reflect this in our voting next time. I am certainly not voting for someone with their fingers in their ears going la la la on any issue. They should listen, think, research, ask questions.

what if your MP happens to be Maria Miller??

I don't think there's any getting through to her.

God forbid. I bet I can guess your constituency DonnaBeee

YEs. I’ve written to her about inclusivity, and the horrible abuse that trans people receive from the GC cult.

She wa very sympathetic and is fully behind the trans community.

You don't spend ages on crafting the email btw - if they're your local MP they should see you (do mention you're local).

Here's Posie Parker's guide to meeting your MP.
