Lib Dems actively deterring GC women

I noticed that too, shame so many companies haven't been given that advice.

Notice the GRA has nothing to do with access to bathrooms because that provision is covered by the EA...

The BBC can help.

Absolutely no way am i voting Conservative, a Tory vote is going to be interpreted as pro-austerity and pro-brexit, no matter how many sternly worded GC letters one writes.

Sal is one of the lead cheerleader as far as I can tell.

Conversations with sal seem to lead to conversion to the woo.

Who the hell do I vote for? The Tory, the misogynist or the anti semite?

You don’t agree they haven’t been demonized? But you think the word ‘Tory’ is an equivalent condemnation as ‘misogynist’ and ‘anti semite’?

What is the obvious answer, Bovary? What do you find incredible? I don't agree that the Tories have been demonised any more than the other parties. Don't understand what your point is.

Motherofsoupdragons,
Dunno. The answer seems so obvious. You know what I find incredible? Maybe the demonization of Conservatives needs to end. When you look at the alternatives

Who the hell do I vote for? The Tory, the misogynist or the anti semite?

Sal Brinton was the one at the Fawcett Soc / 50-50 Parliament who said she’d be happy with an all male parliament if half of them identified as trans.

What a pair of complete dicks they are. Jeez.

I don’t have enough eyerolls for those Cardiff LibDem candidates’ tweets.

Nice chap

Done. I wait for the Tory, Green and Lib Dem replies but I know that the Greens and Lib Dems will likely be even worse. The sitting Tory MP has been very on the ball in the past and I suspect is very GC.

How did we get here? Feeling really upset this morning.

OMFG I have only just noticed this bit and am fucking FURIOUS now. I mentioned us being called cervix havers and other hate speech.

'Women who are not trans should not be attacked with the kinds of ridiculous language you have mentioned in your email. We cannot tolerate a situation where women are attacked and criticised for being born women. If I were ever to come across this kind of bigoted bullying, I would condemn it strongly and, if necessary take steps to report offenders.'

He has actually said women who are not trans. He SAID IT. FFS. Another email is now being sent.

I did send him a good long email back mentioning, ahem, chromosomes and took him to task on a few other things too.

It was a very weird email he sent because he was not pro men competing against women in sport, but thought it was ok for men to share loos and changing spaces with women.

This bit got short shrift from me too in the light of Labour pretending that men can be women if they put on a dress:

'I hope you will see that, despite our different opinions on trans-gender women, the Labour Party is the party for women. We have more female MPs and than any other party (almost 50% more than the Conservatives,despite us having fewer MPs). We are the only party to use All Women Shortlists for at least 50% of our target seats and 75% of conference spaces. We have a separate women's conference. Women's Officers are compulsory on all constituency 'executive committees' (the governing body for constituencies) and all executive committees must have a gender balance of 50% women officers. The same applies to our national executive committee (NEC) and national policy forum'

Not enough eye rolls in the fucking world. They have lost the plot and it is sad to see.

Why are you surprised that the Liberal Democrats (the clue is in the name) wouldn't want to recruit openly prejudiced people to their ranks?

'Because he's a man' is a generalization, but it is remarkably appropriate in a great many situations. I've found myself saying 'Because Bloke' rather a lot recently. Sometimes you just get fed up wasting words on long explanations as to why male humans are entitled wankers who piss all over women at every opportunity. BB works when I can't be arsed.

Yes, OldCrone - there is that, too!

That is the thing. Those politicians who are bending themselves over to accommodate men who claim womanhood, but do nothing at all for women and children.

Why does this Labour pillock only care about being "fair" to "trans-gender women" and not at all about being fair to actual women?

Because he's a transphobic bigot who doesn't believe that transwomen are women. If he believed transwomen were women, their feelings wouldn't matter either.
