Sadiq needs to be reminded who the electorate actually are

most of them are not TW or their enablers

If I recall correctly he's another man over excited at the prospect of mixed sex toilets .

AutumnRose1 · 16/02/2020 20:41

I was about to write to his office for advice/help on the loo thing!

Languishingfemale · 16/02/2020 22:02

AutumnRose1
I've read articles where he's been boasting about installing "inclusive" mixed sex loos. Tbh, (and possibly unfairly) I now question the personal motives of any man in power who removes women's toilets in favour of mixed sex. Hmm

AutumnRose1 · 16/02/2020 22:11

languishing me too! How disappointing. I expected better from him. Thought he had a brain.

BlackLambAndGreyFalcon · 16/02/2020 22:24

Does anyone know Rory's stance on this?

Well considering he's a politician you can assume the default is TWAW.

From twitter

No. They. Are. Not.

Being a woman is not a state of mind or a feeling on a rainy Wednesday morning.

I am a woman. You are a man. You are not a woman just because you say or think you are.

The end.

That was Julia jeez I forgo5 her other names but anyway.

He has a new project, #comekipwithme asking people in London to host him overnight so he can listen to their views about what's important.
He brings chocolates & a sleeping bag.

It would be a great if he heard concerns about Women's (sex-based) Rights & Safeguarding.

Fascinating how on so-called LGBT History Month you manage to avoid saying Lesbian, Gay or Bisexual. You just disappeared up your own purity spiral.

That to the mayor on twitter

ScrimshawTheSecond · 16/02/2020 23:03

The two replies at the top of the thread (does that mean they've been the most responded to?) are Fionne Orlander and Debbie Hayton.

You can keep saying the mantra over and over - maybe slightly desperately. It isn't working anymore.

Yeah rowan that would be great if women in London could ask him for a sleepover then grill him / ask him

Voice0fReason · 16/02/2020 23:05

I don't think he got the response he was expecting on that post.
What an idiot. He's saying words without giving them a moment's thought. Non-binary people are non-binary - what does that even mean?

NotAssigned · 16/02/2020 23:20

He is strongly in the lead but Rory is second according to betting odds.

That’s interesting. Especially as Ken Livingstone initially won as an independent. It’s something that can actually happen under the mayoral voting system (unlike GEs).

Al1Langdownthecleghole · 16/02/2020 23:39

I can't say I'm surprised, sadly.

Some cracking twitter responses though.

NowtSalamander · 16/02/2020 23:50

I signed up to Come Kip With Me for exactly this reason. I’m sure Rory with mouth the normal groupthink stuff but if I think he’s at all thoughtful about this then he has my vote.

JustHereWithMyPopcorn · 17/02/2020 11:13

@AutumnRose1 that was my favourite response too. The only thing that made me laugh on twitter yesterday.

Sadiq Khan is a total wanker, I can't tell you how many times I have 'defended' him to other people but now he can get to fuck. I will be sharing with my fellow Londoners to let them know who they might be voting for.

I guarantee not one of these politicians actually believe that for one minute, it's all about sucking up to whoever they think might get them a vote.

RuffleCrow · 17/02/2020 11:16

Is there some brainwashing programme these idiots have all been on? It's just such obvious bullshit. Biscuit

AutumnRose1 · 17/02/2020 11:18

Just yes, I’ve defended him too. No more.

The thing is...we’re Londoners. That doesn’t make us horrifically thick. What do these people think they’ve put in the water supply? Is it just not working for some of us?!

Lordfrontpaw · 17/02/2020 11:19

I am also sharing this gem with fellow Londoners. They aren’t happy... people were so keen to try to like him (reverse racism) but he has been quite useless as mayor.

CaptainKirksSpikeyGhost · 17/02/2020 11:24

You all know that he's very likely to get in again don't you, and it will reinforce to Labour that woke culture works.

AutumnRose1 · 17/02/2020 11:37

Meanwhile a woman has had to step down due to women’s health problems
