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

Karma?

A thought, though - are only "out" alphabet soup people allowed in these posts? What if the successful person qualifies but doesn't want to reveal how?

Maybe they get a silent letter or a space in the acronym?

Thank you Lulu!

Now then...

RedTrek · 28/06/2019 12:29

Oh practically anyone can be Q. Just pick Q.

RedTrek · 28/06/2019 12:31

Or +. That's hardly brilliantly defined either.

I'd go for Maverique. There's no way you could even begin to argue that someone isn't maverique because to do that you'd first have to work out what it is.

To the PP who joked about white BAME officers, I heard the BAME officer in LM's CLP is white. Wonder if that's true?

DuMondeB · 28/06/2019 12:39

I’m sort of hoping that the person elected is a ‘stealth’ transman.

Paging Owen! Paging Owen! Outrage contribution required!

AlunWynsKnee · 28/06/2019 12:45

Thanks Ova that's all clear now then. Straight is a state of mind, nothing to do with sex and other people identify you into it. Got it. Grin
And everyone over 30 is heterosexual. Even if they are LOJ. Or a doctor. Because they aren't interesting.

ACCEPTANCE WITHOUT EXCEPTION*

apart from when a man may be negatively affected

Then it's:

STRINGENT GATEKEEPING REQUIRED

But seriously, nobody in Labour saw this coming?

Nobody?

I imagine that plenty of people in Labour are self-identifying as Jewish in order to claim that they have experienced no anti-semitism in the party. And that the cis Jews are trying to make the party look bad.

And how is anyone to know the truth of the matter, when you are who you say you are?

labour-uncut.co.uk/2018/05/29/the-madness-of-self-identification-in-a-political-party/

This was a blog from last year when David Lewis stood as Woman on Wednesdays for a Women's Officer role at his CLP. And got suspended in super quick time. The author of the blog was able to do what most Labour members have been unable to - think things through.

"In short: Labour has, its eyes blinded by its laudable wish to support minorities of all kinds, just wandered into an area of utterly dubious logic and which could cause terrible and visible problems of a legal and constitutional nature, not to mention headlines that would just write themselves for tabloid newspaper editors".

And so it comes to pass.

Maybe he was just the best candidate for the job.

TurboTeddy · 28/06/2019 12:56

Anyone know if Stonewall or Penis News have commented yet?

Kilbranan · 28/06/2019 12:58

What a hypocrite Stella Creasy is - pandering to men as usual and ignoring women Hmm

Gone2far · 28/06/2019 13:02

She's astonishing, isn't she? So little awareness

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 28/06/2019 13:03

I'm sharing the schadenfreude. Acceptance without exception has turned round and bitten them in the arse. PML. Grin

Like so often nowadays I saw the Twitter link at the start of this thread and went straight out there to join the GC Twitter chorus. I've only now returned to post on this thread.

Both pathetic and enraging to see the soothing noises being made to this man by people who entirely supported a male teenager being appointed a Women's Officer.

Sexism and misogyny. Again and a fucking gain.

TheBigBallOfOil · 28/06/2019 13:08

To those who say the tories are just as bad - this stuff is not happening at local level in the party. It just isn’t. For all penny moron’s virtue signalling - and I agree it’s nauseating - rank and file tories are not mad enough for this.
Mad enough to elect Johnson, possibly. But for this, no.

BuzzShitbagBobbly · 28/06/2019 13:08

The plot thickens!

According to FB, both Rohit and another man were elected to the LGBT officer post a few weeks ago. All smiles here!
But the WH Labour website only lists Rohit.

Was there a snap re-election or does our fella just object on a two-faced, time-delayed basis? None of it makes sense.

I haven't seen that photo of madigen before. Makes me feel sick. Is he too young to understand?

No. Lilly is a troll who like many others is getting a kick out of riding this current state of permissive madness.

AlwaysComingHome · 28/06/2019 13:18

Or +. That's hardly brilliantly defined either.

Rather than listing an ever-expanding alphabet wouldn’t it be simply to list those who aren’t included, eg ‘- H’ for ‘everyone but heterosexual’? That would have prevented this guy from being elected.

sheshootssheimplores · 28/06/2019 13:20

Omg this has given me so much joy this morning Grin

LizzieSiddal · 28/06/2019 14:19

Thanks for linking that photo Buzz. Why are there so many fucking men in it?

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 28/06/2019 14:23

I'm so frustrated, Popchyk. I spent ages crafting a careful comment under that Labour Uncut article only to discover that once I'd typed the comment in the box the "Submit" button disappeared. Curses!

FreeFreesia · 28/06/2019 14:28

Someone explain to him that he didn't lose because a 'str8 man stood against me' but because he presumably got fewer votes.

ZebrasAreBras · 28/06/2019 14:32

Madigan knew exactly what they were doing when they posted that photo. Relishes in winding up women who care about the safety of children.
