Guess how I got suspended from the Labour Party?

[IAmDavidLewis]

Well, one of the weirdest days in my life concluded with me receiving a letter informing me of my immediate suspension from the Labour Party. They believe I may have breached the rules by subverting the intention of All Women Shortlists, Women’s Officers or minimum quotas for women. Unfortunately, this does mean that my political ambitions are on hold for a while. I shall of course be continuing to self-identify as a woman every Wednesday, as that is my gender identity...

I have to say a huge thanks to @namechangeah for all her help, guidance and, more importantly, proof-reading! I wouldn’t have gotten to this point without it. I’d also like to thank everyone for their support today. I hope this has helped a bit.

And the Telegraph called me an “activist”! Achievement unlocked

Katie's twitter feed is kind of like the old saying "Don't play chess with pigeons - the pigeon will just knock all the pieces over, and then fly back to their mates and say they won...^ (I paraphrase)

LOL that is the most hilarious bit of projection- that David Lewis is made up.
I really don’t think it’s the gender critical side in this debate that has the loose relationship with the truth from the various tactics I have seen.

But OTOH... imagine if we DID have the power to just imagine a whole new gender critical campaign and then get it covered in the mainstream media.
I’d totally pick that as my superpower

Oh have we finally got an example of the ‘youre Denying My Right To Exist!’ trope?

From the nasty feminis... oh no. No it’s not

There were (at least) accusations of David fakery ( )

1. That Debbie H & Sweary G cooked him up in the pub, with Elvis serving at the bar.

1. James Kirkup and Rupert Murdoch made him up (with Russian involvement too I think I got a bit lost at that point!)

Should say at least 2 accusations. Both by Katie

Yeah it'll be the Russians. It's always the Russians.

‘Mr. Lewis was last seen riding into the sunset on Shergar, with an accomplice dressed in a white spangled jumpsuit. Upon asking if Mr. Lewis was real, the accomplice merely said ‘ah-uhuh.’

Police are baffled.

@TimeLady Thanks! I’ve been getting a fair bit of positive feedback on the article, so it was well worth the effort.

Being Sandied is huge honour. I’ve enjoyed her work for a while, so I’m really quite touched.

I’ve been receiving a few requests for interviews, but I’m suggesting Fair Play for Women’s Dr Nicola Williams as someone who can talk better than I on the points my hairy chin is raising. Seems I might now need to agree to an interview to validate my existence, let alone my gender identity.

That’s... an odd feeling .

Male sure it's a Wednesday - I look forward to hearing your baby raspy breathless voice that you have to do (as that's how the girls speak).

This doesn’t work for Katie because they’ve decided I’m imaginary too.

Katie is now working under the assumption that David is a member of WPUK who has been intensively coached to do this. Because he doesn’t have an actual brain of his own or anything

SwearyG - but...but...your photos...?

Perhaps we're all imaginary... Am I even a real person...? Time for

I know. It’s too much to consider isn’t it. Katie said they’d found out that me and Cátia Freitas (who also spoke at Basingstoke) were the same person...

Our FB accounts exist only to troll Katie (which as mine has been going for over a decade is really a long game). And neither of us are real, we’re socks for someone else.

I think Katie needs a little lie down.

YES! it's on Have I Got News For You!

Good to have Jo Brand compering(sp?) it too.

Yessss go Jo Brand!! She totally gets it. Great exposure David well done

And Ian Hislop really seems to get all this. BRILLIANT!

And Ian Hislop really seems to get all this

Yes. Theres been quite a few bits in Private Eye.

Oh, thank goodness! They wanted permission to use the picture, so we had a brief chat this morning about it. I didn’t want to say anything in case they cut it.

Not much but people now know you can self id for Labour AWS. Shame they didn't make clear that he only got suspended after he'd revealed what was going on.

You tease David! Thank you for doing this, sad that it takes a man to be noticed but glad there are men willing to put their heads above the parapet.

I'm getting more feminist by the day as I see how we're ignored.

Ooh I’ll catch up with HIGNFY later, fab exposure getting on there.

So glad it was on. And actually Ian's dig at Corbyn put it into mainstream context and saved it from being pigeon holed into the "of interest only to fringe elements" category. Yay!

Oh dear, now that nasty hive of conspiracy also known as the BBC believe that this 'David Lewis' is real. Bunch of corporate shill bastards. I shall Twibbon my Twitter straight away, that'll show them. I am not a number! < froth to fade out >

I hope there's an extended HIGNFY on Monday night, I missed it tonight.

BBC are paid by the Russians too. It's all the Russians...
