Oh the irony! Watch the woke folk implode with self-righteous indignation!

Karma?

Maybe he was just the best candidate for the job.

ACCEPTANCE WITHOUT EXCEPTION*

apart from when a man may be negatively affected

Then it's:

STRINGENT GATEKEEPING REQUIRED

But seriously, nobody in Labour saw this coming?

Nobody?

I imagine that plenty of people in Labour are self-identifying as Jewish in order to claim that they have experienced no anti-semitism in the party. And that the cis Jews are trying to make the party look bad.

And how is anyone to know the truth of the matter, when you are who you say you are?

labour-uncut.co.uk/2018/05/29/the-madness-of-self-identification-in-a-political-party/

This was a blog from last year when David Lewis stood as Woman on Wednesdays for a Women's Officer role at his CLP. And got suspended in super quick time. The author of the blog was able to do what most Labour members have been unable to - think things through.

"In short: Labour has, its eyes blinded by its laudable wish to support minorities of all kinds, just wandered into an area of utterly dubious logic and which could cause terrible and visible problems of a legal and constitutional nature, not to mention headlines that would just write themselves for tabloid newspaper editors".

And so it comes to pass.

Thanks Ova that's all clear now then. Straight is a state of mind, nothing to do with sex and other people identify you into it. Got it. Grin
And everyone over 30 is heterosexual. Even if they are LOJ. Or a doctor. Because they aren't interesting.

Paging Owen! Paging Owen! Outrage contribution required!

DuMondeB · 28/06/2019 12:39

I’m sort of hoping that the person elected is a ‘stealth’ transman.

smeerf · 28/06/2019 12:35

To the PP who joked about white BAME officers, I heard the BAME officer in LM's CLP is white. Wonder if that's true?

Mermoose · 28/06/2019 12:32

I'd go for Maverique. There's no way you could even begin to argue that someone isn't maverique because to do that you'd first have to work out what it is.

Or +. That's hardly brilliantly defined either.

RedTrek · 28/06/2019 12:29

Oh practically anyone can be Q. Just pick Q.

placemats · 28/06/2019 12:28

Thank you Lulu!

Now then...

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 28/06/2019 12:25

A thought, though - are only "out" alphabet soup people allowed in these posts? What if the successful person qualifies but doesn't want to reveal how?

Maybe they get a silent letter or a space in the acronym?

AyeRobot · 28/06/2019 12:22

Hahaha

LizzieSiddal · 28/06/2019 12:20

I'm angry that all these people are so OUTRAGED by this, but do not give a flying fuck about WOMEN.

And this example is just the start, there will be many more people self iding as disabled, BAME, and women. They may as well just get rid of the Equalities Act!

Trying again...

OvaHere · 28/06/2019 12:15

Who is the elected man? Or 'man' because we don't actually know how he identifies himself and that is what matters after all.

Has anyone seen a Twitter account for him?

lululatetotheparty · 28/06/2019 12:14

This one?

Acceptance without exception

That sounds like a horrible name for a rock band.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 28/06/2019 12:13

I will die and go to heaven if this happens.

And I will log your literally violent death as a hate crime. Gotta keep those numbers up!

Gingernaut · 28/06/2019 12:13

Nothing useful to add.

CassianAndor · 28/06/2019 12:13

God, I hope The Times picks this up.

placemats · 28/06/2019 12:10

Especially the tweet from Janet Fraser. Shocking photo.

I can't get it on here.

LangCleg · 28/06/2019 12:06

Oh please please let the man elected come out and say he identifies as one of the letters from the alphabet soup.

I will die and go to heaven if this happens.

placemats · 28/06/2019 12:03

This twitter post sums it all up.

See now this is where I can't work out what is going on. If someone is, say, a furry adult baby and has sex with a person who is or identifies as the opposite sex then do they qualify for LGBTQ+ even if they're heterosexual. Or is heterosexual shorthand for only likes vanilla sex in the missionary position with a person who is the opposite sex? If a man cross dresses and has sex with his wife is that heterosexual or not?

We had a thread on this a few days ago. It's the ultimate conclusion of having the TQ tacked onto a movement about gay rights. The Q in particular is so undefinable in any material sense the whole movement will eventually be hoisted by their own petard.

Oh please please let the man elected come out and say he identifies as one of the letters from the alphabet soup. I'd love to see if Rohit is capable of swallowing his indignation and being nice and inclusive when it's his opportunities and representation for his demographic being stolen.

+1 for this. I will pay good money to watch Rohit eat his words.
