Rosie Duffield and threats

She's pulled out of local hustings because it's not safe for her to attend.

But Don't worry.

Keir Starmer will be along to offer his support to Rosie and condemn these attacks on democracy soon...

It's a rum do if the Tradwife Party (reform) end up supporting a working woman being threatened at he work, more than her own colleagues and management.

No doubt if he does Rosie will be called 'Far Right' for getting support from the wrong side.

The whole fucking Gender Identity Ideology shitshow destroys everything it touches.

Sorry if posted already but apparently Labour have “quietly” removed Cashman’s name from the list of Labour Peers.

I was about to post this. It hasn't been mentioned before here.

He was definitely in the list of peers on the website before. Sounds like he has lost the whip. Keep watching this space. This could have a big impact and will keep the issue alive. Indeed it could undermine the more crazy plans of Labour on gender stuff. Keep holding Labour to account folks.

Whatever happens thanks to EVERYONE who made a complaint. Small actions equal big impact. All thanks to Rosie and a bunch of women who are not frit at all.

That is why why the pro-women side will win this.

As is often the way , Starmer's silence speaks volumes ...sadly I think this will play into Farage's campaign, if he use it to bait Starmer then Rosie would be damaged too.. Starmer needs to voice unequivocal support, but I don't think he will .v

SinnerBoy · 17/06/2024 04:36

Ah... Gwen Troake was the lady FC was disparaging about.

SinnerBoy · 17/06/2024 04:34

I know about the nasty snobby Fanny Cradfock, but Gwen Troke isn't someone I have heard of.

lonelywater · 17/06/2024 02:40

Think this must Cashman's Fanny Cradock/Gwen Troke moment. (one for the teenagers there)

SinnerBoy · 17/06/2024 02:17

They're not just failing to protect Rosie, they're actively ignoring the threats to her. Starmer hasn't even spoken to her, despite his claim that he did. His choice is to abandon her and hope that she goes away.

He's a reprehensible shit.

Victoria Smith has written about this in Unherd

https://unherd.com/newsroom/labour-is-still-failing-to-protect-rosie-duffield/

I'd seen posts about that interview (there's a link to it in the article). I've not watched it myself, I find Starmer too aggravating and he always looks on the verge of tears, to me anyway. I didn't know he'd made that comment about Brianna Ghey's murder 😳 wtf!

This is what passes me off about so-called trans allies (the absolute freaks). Virtue signalling to frightened children by throwing people, usually women, under the bus. Anyway, it's said much better in the article.

Labour is still failing to protect Rosie Duffield

Earlier this year Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid asked Keir Starmer whether he owed Rosie Duffield an apology for claiming she should not have said “only women have a cervix”. The Labour leader felt he did not, although he did express his distaste...

They're a fucking disgrace.

Labour claim they want to reduce VAWG by 50%; well, they could make a very easy start on that aim by standing up for Rosie Duffield and any other female MPs receiving violent threats.

They should realise, they're not just talking to the Brighton electorate, they're talking to the whole country.

Yes, and Canterbury very much is not Brighton, no matter what the local Labour Party loons think.
Canterbury students and Whitstable DFLs are not representative of the local older, settled, voting population.

This!!

A million times over! Surely advisors must read mumsnet?

Show quote history

They know they need to convince women to vote for them so you’d think they’d be checking in from time to time!

Kai125 · 16/06/2024 22:43

CorruptedCauldron · 16/06/2024 08:04

Are you reading this, Starmer? Are any of your advisers reading these pages?

You might think that by not commenting on these issues, they’ll go away and no one will notice. You might think these are ‘culture wars’ that are not worth your time. But by failing to stand up for Rosie Duffield, failing to condemn the threats of violence, failing to protect the women in your party, failing to publicly acknowledge the Cass report, do you know what’s happening?

You are losing votes. You lost mine.

It makes you wonder if the Labour Party in fact wants her to lose so that they can turn round and say, look all other Labour candidates did really well. She must of lost because she is a transphobe.

Worrying.

Runor · 16/06/2024 21:35

Starmer’s not sticking up for Rosie because the people laying into her are absolutely following his lead. He doesn’t want it to stop - I imagine it would all be far more convenient for him if she didn’t get elected, and with the predicted landslide, he can afford to lose that seat.

For Starmer, this isn’t an uncomfortable sideshow, it’s the obvious and welcome result of his TWAW stance

edited to add: Starmer is clearly trying to tread a line so that a group of voters believe that he supports them, even though he doesn’t. I think that group is anyone who cares about women’s rights

Yes - words are cheap from Starmer it seems.

duc748 · 16/06/2024 19:51

When you think, as well, that a big part of Starmer's pitch since he's been Leader is "the Party is under new management now, we're not like those other guys".

ActivePeony · 16/06/2024 19:47

Bloody hell, this is diabolical. What a pack of cowardly bastards these people are.
Labour can get to fuck. 😡

Seems to be open season on Rosie now.

Well done Keir slow handicap

In any other area of employment this would be seen as attempting constructive dismissal.
