Labour trans promise on radio 2 Jeremy Vine

[2stepsonthewater]

Coming up today - just announced. Phone in!

JV posing a good point re deciding to be a woman tomorrow.

Male body...

Good on JV.

Yes, tombakers. It's a disgusting way he framed it.

I wish a presenter would ask a "TWAW" advocate - "so do you believe humans can change sex? Really?"

KH should have corrected that.
It's coming back to feelz isn't it, a genuine transwoman wouldn't attack a woman - so where is this test that proves who is genuine?

The Kate Harris is right regarding what children may be taught.

A teacher has written a children's book saying that a girl who eschews pink and likes trousers and getting muddy is actually a boy.

Good she kept going at the end there, despite attempt at interruption

Finished my run now walking around my block fist pumping for Kate.

Oh well, as long as you are "genuinely" pretending to be a woman, come on in to female spaces.

FUCK OFF HELENA YOU TRAITOROUS LOON.

Would put record on channel 5 on Monday as he usually follows up on his discussions then. Hope he invites Kate on.

Tra woman typical of their 'arguments' no logic or coherence so interupt people and shout over them. Wonder when she will start insulting Kate

Jeremy V has put some tough questions to the journo. Good on him! The difficulty is there are so many huge issues bound up in this - hard to get across in short interview answers.

JV has just defined transphobia as "people who disagree with"
So it's just disagreement now that makes you transphobic?

Yes but how are we supposed to know who is genuine and who isnt? FFS
Girls are being told to 'ignore their discomfort'..

I wish Kate had commented on "living as a woman" as being essentially sexist as what does that mean other than "feminine" presentation?

Transwoman on now saying tw in prisons who assault women are not genuine tw.

Surely JV is highlighting the absurdity of labelling everything as transphobic

Yay Fionn pointing out woman is born female!

This is where the trans people are "more likely to be a victim of hate crime" is an issue as she used it against women, for whom hate crimes are not recognised but for whom violence against them and murder is vastly higher than trans people.

Fionn - excellent, thank you for speaking out!

Just catching up... got to "it depends" on transwomen and lesbians... FML!! She's trying very, very hard isn't she?

Ffion talking absolute sense!

Helena who?

Sunlight .... Jeremy sounded astounded that a trans woman would know she is not a woman.

Yes Fionne pointing out sexism!!!

What was it the trans pledge that most of the labour leadership candidates signed, something about there was no clash between trans rights and women's rights. I rather think there is. Keep going. More sunlight. The wheels are falling off
