TUC supports Self ID

[TriptychTwins]

So that's it really. I'm absolutely livid right now. After recent events, how could they even think this is a good idea?

Utter fools!

Of course it does.

Sorry - not meaning to be flippant. Just head-desk ing over here.

Part of me isn't surprised, but after recent events, how can they even think just for a second that this is a good idea?

I feel so utterly angry about this.

Twitter is going nuts over it. Or at least my twitter feed is!

People, or I should say women are realising that their unions have supported the GRA reform motion without consulting them. Nearly all unions have reached the decision to support it by leaving it to lgbtq committees to figure out. I'm not aware of any that have centred women.

Women of twitter are asking if their unions will support them if they object to sharing protected spaces with biologically male bodies.

This is an important decision that could potentially effect so many women in the workplace and there will be nowhere to go with it.

My thoughts are that if you are in a union, please complain or consider leaving. I don't know.

The only union not to support was the fantastic fire brigade union. They abstained and in this toxic climate of debate this means a lot.
