My labour counsellor looked confused when I talked about women's rights

I had a labour counsellor knock on my door today and I explained how I had always voted Labour and had been a labour party member, but that I was concerned about their stance on women's sex-based rights. He did look at me a bit like I had lost my mind, and said that he wasn't sure that there was any labour position in that area, but then preceded to tell me about all the lovely other policies he was planning. I feel stuck. I would have previously been a mix of labour, with additional votes (if you get more than one choice) going to Greens and lib Dems, but now I feel like a vote for my local councillors is tacitly supporting the central party stance. What are people doing? I feel lost Sad

If I could just vote for lord Hunt then that would be great Grin, but the house of lords doesn't seem to work like that!
