Twitter has taken the baton. Seems people are not happy with being told what to think.

Labour leadership contender Rebecca Long-Bailey has signed up to a pledge to expel party members who have expressed "transphobic" views.
The recently-formed Labour Campaign for Trans Rights says its 12 pledges will help "rid the party of transphobia

It's also going to rid them of about a third of its female voters.

They're so thick.

TimeMarchesOnNeverEnding · 11/02/2020 22:24

Their own bloody mantra is 'for the many, not the few'. Well dickheads, there are far more biological women than trans women....

WPUK are so classy.

This is fantastic.

How absolutely wonderful that so many thousands of people are standing up in defence of women- it’s a real “Spartacus” moment, isn’t it. Must admit, I felt almost tearful to see such solid support, after feeling we were lone voices for so long!
I should have had more faith in the good sense of ordinary people - the average Brit does not take kindly to fascist orders on how to think or behave. Well done to the idiots in the Labour Party for giving this toxic ideology maximum exposure!

Caitlin Moran still silent Im guessing HmmGrin

There is going to come a point where she’ll have to break cover. And that point will be too late.

Should I know who Aaron Bastini is?

Evenquieterlife33 · 11/02/2020 22:48

I can’t remember who, but someone tweeted that Labour have been made “useful idiots” just about sums it up for me.

testing987654321 · 11/02/2020 22:57

This whole fiasco is why we should always consider ideas on their merits, not just go along with ideas unthinkingly because they sound like others we agree with.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 11/02/2020 23:00

That Bastini bloke doesn't get out of his social group much, does he? The majority of people do not believe TRA dogma. Most people want to be nice and not hurt anyone's feelings, and are generally in favor of human rights protections being expanded, but the official TRA position has gone so far off the deep end that of course people are pushing back. Because what's being asked for is absurd and dangerous to other people.

When kids are being harmed, people notice and don't like it. When discussion is forbidden, people notice and don't like it. When you tell people that biological sex is a social construct, they begin to question your sanity, which leads to also wondering how many of your other positions are somewhat less than reality based.

Oh God long groan
If anyone dare look, Joss Prior has joined in to "Expelme" to do "A Thread" "1/1" etc.

Just.... I daren't look but it's there.

RheaRanged · 11/02/2020 23:11

I think joss has been hitting the sherry. Again.

Floisme · 11/02/2020 23:16

How do you expel 18,000 people?
The tribunals will have to sit all night.

thereplycamefromanchorage · 11/02/2020 23:18

This is really cheering.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 11/02/2020 23:22

Perhaps at meetings those they haven't gotten round to expelling yet can wear signs hung over their chest a la Cultural Revolution.

It's long past time that the grownups came in and told our homegrown version of the Red Guard to pipe down and go do their homework.

RubyViolet · 11/02/2020 23:24

Caitlin is not a Feminist, she has monetarised a commercial soft Feminism.

I wonder who the witchfinder generals will be?

nonsenceagain · 11/02/2020 23:35

Great to see. And hopefully it will put members off voting for them. I certainly won't be.

I am a member of the Labour Party. I have given up my time and efforts for many years as CLP Secretary and Chair. I also believe that women’s safety, privacy and dignity should be protected as per the 2010 Equality Act. @WomansPlaceUK #Expelme

I am the Policy Officer for Newcastle Central CLP and a
@UKLabour party member. I respect and support trans people's right to believe in gender identity.
And I want my right to believe it doesn't exist to be respected,
too. #expelme
