Oh well thank goodness for that, a small amount of faith restored back in the Labour Party.

"I apologised about the actual content of the meme. It was silly, I posted it without looking very hard at it."

(having photoshopped an existing image to tell a story I wished to portray I then decided to tweet it but on reflection I just didn't look close enough...incredible....)

I was so heartened by this news.
Her original Tweet "Bang, and the terf is gone" is so symptomatic of the anti-woman activism taking over modern day politics and policy.

It's a case of too little too late, but at least there's a shift in recognising the interminable misogyny inherent in gender ideology.

At least there are some standards in public life left.

When The National asked Labour boss Richard Leonard yesterday if he thought terf was an acceptable term for a candidate to use, he replied “no”.

Now if only someone could explain that to the Lib Dems.
