Straight Man elected as Labour LGBT Officer 😂

He seems entirely unable to explain his position.

Well theres a change from usual! Generally TWAW types have all the answers and do not randomly block anyone who disagrees with them, hes truly one of a kind.

It's absolutely delightful watching them flailing around trying to justify their misogyny. Men as Women's Officers is progressive but straight men who identify as LGBT reps are totally unacceptable...

I am one to bear a grudge and they look such hopeless dicks. All they can do is hurl insults and block people. And the ratios are hilarious!

Marking my place.
This has cheered me right up.

This is true. Though I still ask: does he really not understand? Or is he just pretending to not understand?

It's the latter. He's just a coward who knows that he will be ostracised from his Lib Dem crowd at any mere suggestion that TWAnotW. He doesn't give a shit about women so it's not a difficult decision for him to choose looking like a hypocritical knob instead.

Michael Fox is just another dude who's enjoying the double whammy of getting woke cookies, whilst being allowed to call women names.

Ha! Will this be enough to help with a rethink?

Gotta love these guys. They make the Tory membership look sane.

It's just so old now. All you guys who do this - we see you.

White woman elected as BAME womens officer in East Ham CLP, men can't see a problem as they aren't affected;

<a class="break-all" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190710201222/www.newhamrecorder.co.uk/news/east-ham-labour-bame-forum-election-1-6153755" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">web.archive.org/web/20190710201222/www.newhamrecorder.co.uk/news/east-ham-labour-bame-forum-election-1-6153755

Member, Donna Guthrie, said: "Black activists are being made to sit at the back of the bus in our own networks.

However, East Ham CLP's secretary, Syed Taqi Shah, denied the branch had a problem explaining there were several non-white members including himself in key positions.
"If there was a problem, I would not have been elected," Mr Taqi Shah said.

I wish I hadn't read those Michael Fox tweets. He really is an absolute moron, isn't he? How is it possible to be that stupid?

I see from his Twitter bio that Afzal is in the Lib Dems so probably not involved in the Madigan debacle. Not that that's an excuse. The LDs are even worse.

He's getting his arse handed to him. You reap what you sow.

Very satisfying it is too. I don't think I can begin to describe the depths of my contempt for these men who think it's fine for men to take women's places, but start whining if a straight person takes a gay person's place, or a white person takes a BAMe person's place. Karma's a bitch, isn't she?

I love how self-id is being shown for the utter shite that it is.

Oh, and the labour twats who ganged up on labour women like Jennifer James and Venice? Got them expelled from the party - the infamous "spreadsheet" of wrong-thinkers?

One of their number was a disabled woman, who was had a Labour Disability Officer role.

They'll be coming for you next, love. People will identify as disabled will take your roles, and your voice. And you can't say you weren't warned.

"First they came for the women, and you all did nothing" - in fact, you did worse than nothing - you demonised and slandered women, abused and threatened women, and then contributed in the effort to have them expelled.

still don't know whether to laugh or cry about the whole self-ID debacle

cry I think

War is peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength
Men are women

I'm just basking in the Schadenfreude here

I have very limited sympathy - these are the dudebros who called women cunts when we complained about Madigan & co.

They can fuck off - they are hoist by their own petard.

As an Irish-English woman, I was wondering if Irish qualified as BAME.

On paper, it does. In practice, I've sat in meetings where I'm the only white face and there are some fairly dirty looks in my direction.

This woman definitely has a thick skin and some brass neck.

Up the RA! Kidding

This is what onlookers call 'the left eating itself', isn't it? One could almost suspect that the whole identity politics issue was invented as a trojan horse ...

It’s really noticeable that Michael Fox (who he? When I googled I just got distracted by pics of the lovely Michael J Fox) doesn’t auto block people with masculine sounding Twitter handles. Feminine sounding ones get blocked

And he makes himself look unhinged and like a really crap politician

The replies warm my heart. Those threads wouldn't have looked like that 18 months ago.

The conversation has moved along so fast and so far and all those with their terfblockers have been entirely left out of it.

It's the same Constituency Labour Party, right? Who had the straight guy taking the LGBT role?

Newham in East London.

Clearly one faction is using self-ID in order to manouevre themselves into a powerful position in that CLP. Undermining all the structures put in place to help historically underrepresented groups to have a voice - and instead using those structures to bolster the most powerful group to the detriment of the least powerful groups.

Who'd have thought that something like this could ever happen?

Much as we might think that this is karma (and it is), it is a worrying sign for those people who are systematically being deprived of representation. The self-ID policy across the board will hit poor, BAME, disabled, immigrants, and yes, women, the hardest.

But of course Labour has no care for that.

They can't explain their position because it has no substance and nothing to back it up. They know they are wrong. The house of cards is beginning to tumble.

Here's another beardy dude bro getting his arse handed to him.

He seems entirely unable to explain his position.

"Because it’s a fake question asked by trolls in bad faith to waist my time. Go and read a book if you want answers. Oh and you’re blocked".

He seems to have been fine with Madigan taking a women’s post. He’s on the receiving end of a very pleasing Twitter back lash

Any party that thinks gender identity is a vote winner needs to have a serious rethink
