I'm neither a Labour member nor on Twitter but I'd love to see a #LabourLosingWomen series of photos of membership cards being destroyed or disposed of in inventive ways.

I'm just the monkey who saw the message on twitter and reposted it, so people could see it that did make me chuckle. You’re a very good monkey. Have a 🍌. Actually after that brilliant suggestion. Have a whole bowl of 🍇 🍈 🍉😁

Just to stress as I've had a couple of PMs, contact mayday4women direct not me. I'm not part of them.

I've cancelled my membership. Very sad as I do not know who to vote for now. But I will not vote for a party that can treat women like this. The hypocrisy over the Suffragette anniversary and suchlike also sickens me. Words are cheap, but it is the actions that matter.

I had such great hopes for a Labour government at the next election. So sad, so angry.

@IndominusRex

I will vote for whoever stands up against this madness. I am now a single issue voter.

This. I intend to write to every candidate asking them what their policy is.

Thanks RedToothBrush will do!

JenniferJames thanks for the update. I donated to your crowdfunder and would do it again but sadly I've lost all trust in Labour - if they are winging it now, God knows what they would do in office.

Cut in half on the tray of a sanitary bin? Bloody towel/tampon optional.

It is such a shame The Womens Equality Party sold real women down the river.

Such a missed opportunity!

There is no one left to vote for. I can't vote labour. I can't vote conservative. Seriously, who are you supposed to vote for?

I’m resigning from Labour Party over this issue.

Cut in half on the tray of a sanitary bin? Bloody towel/tampon optional.

Or drowning in a vat of expressed breast milk. Or even cow milk. I presume we're not at the stage where bulls are getting udder transplants yet.

Anyone else sitting and summering while they wait for the ‘groundbreaking’ announcement?

SeniorRita HH is my MP. I emailed her before Christmas with my concerns about self ID etc etc. I got the automated 'thanks for your email' response (so I know it was received). Still waiting for any actual response 10 weeks on.

So whatever her views actually are, she's keeping them to herself as far as her constituents are concerned.

DH also leaving Labour today.

.

Am I the only one who thinks this is a good thing?

The quicker this incarnation of Labour crashes and burns the better. This latest idiocy only helps that aim.

And then decent Labour people can rebuild after that, if they still want to. There might be nothing left to salvage at that point.

Added my name to the Mayday4women mass resignation list.

Yup they have totally failed women. They haven't got a) the brains or b) the guts or c) the slightest desire to show solidarity with women to adhere to the basic truth that woman = adult human female.

Vote with your feet.

TruScum totally agree, JJ has been saying the same thing for over a month.
Corbyn and the LP hate women unless they have a penis

I'm not a Tory, but I think the Tories could clean-up here by coming out against this policy and his mopping up some of the politically homeless. Let's face it, most Tories will be against self-id, so I doubt they'll lose any members.

@PenguindreamsofDraco

Thank you for letting me know, disappointing. I do get the feeling she is just worn out with Labour now, understandably.

I happen to know a few senior Labour people (a couple of Lords, a couple on the shadow cabinet), I don't know HH but I know someone who knows her well. I might Tweet her and ask her opinion.

If they had a plan in place to help transmen advance in the Labour Party with the same speed as transwomen then that would be something at least, but of course they don't. Transmen don't exist for the Labour Party.

They have demonstrated that they only care about the right sort of transgender people. Men.

If you don't think that Jezziah is full of crap. Read this. Members will be consulted on policy. Abuse of women won't be tolerated. Yea, right

Or even cow milk. I presume we're not at the stage where bulls are getting udder transplants yet. Do you think there are many votes in self ID for cows and bulls?
I'm not a labour voter but I support you all in this. The Tories started all this with their ID nonsense. What can I do to make the point clear that women won't put up with this any more?

HH supported PIE in the 70's, why do you think she will support women
