Straight Man elected as Labour LGBT Officer 😂

[CaveMum]

Oh the irony! Watch the woke folk implode with self-righteous indignation!

Karma?

I've just created a thread, Cave.

Will report mine to get it deleted.

Here's the unfortunate gentleman's Twitter.

Sympathy, shock, and an offer to get it fixed from Stella Creasy.

Great to see Stella Creasy immediately going to bat for this fella just like she did when women lost out to men in the Women's Officer ... oh.

I have no doubt that the successful candidate self identified according under the Stonewall umbrella and that enabled him to get elected. Frankly anyone who challenges this is a bigot!

All we need is a white person to be elected BAME officer and the trifecta will be complete.

That's made me laugh

All the Labour stalwarts are wading in now. Wes Streeting, Angela Eagle etc. Saying how awful it is.

Owen Jones will be along in a minute. With his selective outrage.

Oh the irony.

The unsuccessful candidate does however it seems support transwomen so karma is a bitch.

As I said on the other thread, this guy Rohit spins out against the ‘transphobia’ in the Labour Party when women objected to males taking our roles. So yes, so ironic and yes, total karma. Let’s see how gay men like it when straight men take over what they’ve created and what is rightfully theirs.

I wonder if the cognitive dissonance will hurt Stella and Wes much

i really just can't be fucked with the labour party any more

males as women's officers, straight people as LGBT reps. the whole organisation just needs to get in the fucking sea

Rohit, you are such a sore loser! Get over yourself you precious windbag.

Hell mend you, Rohit. You had it coming.

I'm ashamed to admit that the irony of this made me snort into my tea...

self identified according under the Stonewall umbrella and that enabled him to get elected

Exactly!!

Just about everyone is under that umbrella

Even ignoring the whole Lily thing...this was going to hapoen when you open the doors to absolutely anyone

No good getting precious about it...those are your rules!

I really think that Rohit should just be nicer about it. Where is his empathy for straight people? Straight people are humans too.

This anti-straight rhetoric from Rohit is unhelpful and damaging. It leads directly to a hostile environment for straight people who want to take up LGBT roles. Some straight people commit suicide so Rohit really shouldn't be complaining. No wonder straight people are woefully under-represented in LGBT roles.

Rohit needs to look at his gay privilege and understand that the other fella is actually disadvantaged in his LGBT role precisely because he is straight. A bit of empathy wouldn't go amiss.

Bit like a labour women’s officer never says a word about women
🤣

Popchyck 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Thats a fair point popchyk

People on Mumsnet are always being told to be nice

Maybe someone should nip on that twitter thread and tell them to be nice

I'll just leave this here...

This man could come under Q

I mean thats queer or questioning isnt it

Omg hahaha

The the the what is it. The word am searching for

Is it irony

LM is just a troll.

I don't know anything about the successful candidate - does he self-identify as queer? What was his pitch?

Anyway, thank Christ for Labour.

Say what you like about them. Anti-semites? Yes. Misogynists? Yes. Incoherent omnishambles? Hell yes. Always.

But they always somehow manage to provide us with a great laugh in these dark times.

You couldn't make this shit up...
