Mayor of London

[NotAssigned]

They're all at it

I hope to god Rory manages to oust Sadiq.

I'm amazed there isn't a howl of 'privilege' going up right now - don't mention 'women's issues' - because it makes some people feel excluded...

If only he could be forced to resign after tweeting such blatant lies.

Men really can't stand women making their own boundaries, can they?

AutmunRose1 the entire horrific issue of the mesh is just one tiny fragment of what women have had to endure, and still he stands there, when his rival candidate goes through this and states that women are biologically the same as men - I mean, I assume that's what TWAW means, right?

For anyone in London interested in democracy in action ..

Popcorn, agree. In fact I’m going to write in and say as much. khans just throwing out the female vote. Unless he can’t face doing the job again!!

What exactly did he do - apart from some amusing spats with that other bastion of feminism, Donald Trump.

Well he helped stop the release of John Warboys.

But recently I’m beginning to see why London didn’t have a mayor before. I don’t want a cultural ambassador, I want practical things like cleaner streets.

Oh, I do think he’s managed to save some council housing as well, so fair play for that.

Weirdly I think I'm even more pissed off with Sadiq's tweet than the nonsense spouted by Nandy, RLB and Dawn Butler.

He did it after the leadership contenders signed that stupid trans pledge to boot our WPUK and LGBAlliance supporters. So instead of staying quiet or saying something measly mouthed trying to triangulate between the two sides (impossible as we know), he chose to virtue signal the belief that if not agreed to would see hordes of women booted out of the party.

He's just lost my vote.

EVERY time someone writes the socially acceptable lie that: "trans women are women"
I feel a sick jolt that the rejoinder, which is the absolute truth: "transwomen are men" is not equally sayable.
Instead, it is open to censorship, sanctions, bannings, deletions, and possible civil and criminal action.

It should be easier, more permissable, to say and write the truth than it is to say or write a lie. But it isn't any more.

But we're already at the point in time where
"some males are women" is entirely allowable, and
"all males are men" is shocking, socially unacceptable, 'unkind', disallowed, censorable and potentially criminal.

In the UK, in 2020.

This terrifies me.

If the mayor of London can write "trans women are women" then a British woman must, must, must be equally free to say "no, transwomen are men".

It should scare us all that we never hear that sentence spoken any more, and we are scared of the consequences of writing it as honestly and plainly as that. Transwomen are men.

I want desperately for MNHQ to understand that to censor the truth but to allow or uphold the lie is deeply horrifying and Orwellian. I'm hoping that this post will be allowed to stand. I don't believe it breaks guidelines.
But the test of it will be this:

Khan: "trans women are women"
Me: "transwomen are men"

me 'who told you that?'

No one has explained exactly how a transwoman is a woman....at what point does this magical transformation happen?

It doesn’t. We know it, they know it. It’s not acceptable that we must lie to be ‘kind’ & I refuse to accept that BS and not argue against it.

Sex change in humans is impossible.

TWAW is in itself transphobic; that is, it removes the protected characteristic from the minority group. Why do TRAs keep saying it?

If transwomen are women then that also means that women are transwomen. Which would make everyone trans and we all come under the umbrella and can't possibly be trans exclusionary because we are trans.

Let's just cut the bullshit now and go back to sensible language with words that have definitions. Can't wait for all this nonsense to be over now that it's finally firmly out in the spotlight.

Need to put this incredibly clever thread down here, seeing as it references the mayor directly.

Why we are all in the grip of collective madness:

Every single politician who repeats the mantra, can never be trusted to hold public office, to represent the will of the majority.

We need a way of weeding out the lift spinners before they get to public office!

Shame, I really like Sadiq Khan and think he's been a great mayor, but what a plonker.

My opinion of him has gone right down.

I thought he could see beyond toeing the party line.

Apparently not.

Agree, Barracker.

It's the Emperor's New Clothes thing.

Where it's social death to point out the bleeding obvious, that is obvious to any child.

Which is of course why children are the current line of attack.

I so very much look forward to the price of tulips dropping.
