Daily Mail article M&S, Liz Truss, Pushback!

Yes BovaryX

They don’t care about us.

So they can do what they do and we can spend our cash somewhere else

So that manager is providing free coffee to a transgender person who is buying tights but not for female customers.

Crack on M&S, finding alternatives has highlighted to me quite how much I used to spend there buying clothes for whole household as well as food. Happy to continue to give that money to other stores.

Glad to see the MSM are picking up on Baroness Nicolson's work.

It baffles me as to what a store like M&S are thinking. Brands like Topshop I can understand a bit more because their image is more about being down the cool kids and their 57 genders.

At this rate, in a years time they will only be selling to cross dressing men.

But what if I don’t want to be a part of some guys fetish stuff.

Just the thought of it 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Needmoresleep totally agree about Cummings.

There’s a lingerie store on eBay run by a trans woman. I think they have a physical store too. Of course people could buy from there and ‘support their community’. But that’s not the game is it?

M&S are actively encouraging male cross dressers to use their stores, with no concern for their female customers (or staff).

It appears that ordinary people are fed up and want to see fairness, common sense and a reward for effort, rather than the specialness and correctness that seems to have invaded the thinking of the policy making elite.

If anyone should be credited with spotting this, it might be Dominic Cummings.

It’s difficult. The guy is a prat, and quite probably obnoxious. But he understands the concerns of the ‘Red Wall’ and issues such at self ID. (His wife is deputy editor at the Spectator, which has been sound on this issue from the outset.)

I think the battle for Cummings is really important. It is a proxy for the fight for control of policy making between a liberal elite and a populist. Unfortunately, perhaps, Cummings has a battle on two fronts. Not just those to the left, but Tories unhappy with Boris’ kitchen cabinet.

Pity. His arrogance in ignoring lockdown might well be his undoing, and reflective of arrogance elsewhere. But equally he seemed to have the drive and arrogance to stand up to the wokesters and turn the tide on the capture.

I still remain to be convinced that Truss isn't trying to please both sides by saying single sex spaces for women and girls will be protected, while actually meaning 'but anyone of any sex can be a woman or girl'.

Liz Truss appears to have told the trans lobby that the GRA reform won't harm them, but the same time committing to single sex spaces for women. That's not something that can happen.

You can't do both.

Maybe she will be designating certain men who are allowed in. Those with a GRC?

Because some men can be women? Which, again, never focuses women.

Whatever she does now, she has stated in public that sex segregation shall be upheld. It remains to be seen whether or not the public think certain men qualify as women.

In the meantime, Baroness Nicholson has been treated to a few websites of men discussing their fetish about going into Marks & Spencer's lingerie department.

Marks & Spencers, and all the other retailers, are deliberately allowing both their staff and female customers to be a prop in their male customer's sex fantasies.

A comment under The Daily Mail article said: “They tried this in the USA in Target and people voted with their feet...they changed their minds in the end...so, the same will have to happen with M&S...”

Does anybody have details of this? It would be interest to know how exactly it was resolved and what the TRA/woke backlash was like.

M and S dividends went down nearly 26% according to their annual report. Maybe the shareholders need to be made aware why women are turning away?

Also can't be on twitter so express my thanks here to Liz and the Baroness!

A safety and dignity index sounds a fab idea.

A lot are just in it for the OBE.

Many high end charity jobs draw from a very incestuous pool of extreme end liberal types who just periodically all change seats, there's very little new blood in and no introduction of new and different thought, it just concentrates the lunacy more strongly.

Many high end county council and government posts from team managers upwards are run by the same type with the same beliefs who only recruit those who think as they do. They all occasionally swap jobs with the high end charity people.

THIS!

Bovary I've said it before: when the reality of what has been allowed to happen is truly and properly addressed, it will involve having to close entire groups and departments, lose all the jobs and begin a new organisation from scratch. All policies from scratch. New employees and not people allowed to reapply for their jobs. It has been so fundamentally compromised this will be the only way to rip it out and start again in a way fair to the Nolan principles, unbiased and equally serving all the general public that organisation is supposed to serve.

Maybe we need our own ‘index’? Safety, equality and dignity for women Index?

The Stonewall thing? I think it says it all - supporting the T for woke cookies. Fuck the L.

That means nothing when they don’t accept sex in the usual way surely.

Here we see M&S celebrating their move up on the Stonewall Equality Index careers.marksandspencer.com/inside-mands/marks-%26-spencer-proudly-moves-up-on-the-stonewall-workplace-equality-index-2020

The can back away from stonewall. If they have been advised on ‘the law’ by them the can break their contract (but for gods sake don’t they have their own lawyers? It then again a law firm wrote the playbook for these activities).

How did the CPS become so embroiled?

Remember all those police dramas like Frost and Dalzeal and Pascoe, where coppers were trying to work under some extreme end liberal nutjob manager straight out of university with no grip on reality?

It wasn't fiction.

Many high end charity jobs draw from a very incestuous pool of extreme end liberal types who just periodically all change seats, there's very little new blood in and no introduction of new and different thought, it just concentrates the lunacy more strongly.

Many high end county council and government posts from team managers upwards are run by the same type with the same beliefs who only recruit those who think as they do. They all occasionally swap jobs with the high end charity people.

It's how there is now such an utter disconnect between policy and real life reality.

I’m quite amazed that this seems to be news to a lot of those posting comments there!
