Labour phone canvasser whingeing about transphobia

[teawamutu]

Self-identified, obvs - might be bollocks. But it's interesting:

As transphobe = recognises material reality, then yes I expect there are.

Eeek, that's weird. I posted on the other thread about raising AWS when asked about why I left, but that guy sounded genuinely concerned to hear my opinion.
They have painted themselves into an impossible corner.

And Ben is a shining example of why this party doesn't get my vote.

That’s quite encouraging. Maybe a wake up call to the party that the vast majority of voters do not accept their bonkers denial of biology and don’t want self ID to allow any potentially violent or voyeuristic men into women’s spaces under the guise of being trans.
If they campaigned for appropriate support for trans people, such as third spaces, far more voters would feel able to sign up.

By "banking" does he mean phoning people up and asking them for money?

Why the fuck would anyone give money to a party that wants to expel them?

By "banking" does he mean phoning people up and asking them for money?

Is that what it is? And the people are saying no and telling him why?

And instead of thinking oh dear, hang on a minute, this is a problem, he's actually complaining about them in public?!

The comments are a joy.

Really. This is the burning issue that Benselfnis focussing one. Do they think that this is all the country is thinking about?

Labour is dead. We are now Post Labour.

It's odd, how they disregard the real life objection to this whole debacle, but have based their entire party ethics on thenTwitter opinions of a tiny minority.
How on Earth are they surprised by their mass loss of votes is beyond me.

Ben has pronouns in bio obviously 😏

Apparently Ben is He/Him/They/Them

Poor Ben.

Labour are currently in Wil E. Coyote's position: off the edge of the cliff with realisation dawning. Little legs still spinning but terror in the eyes. 👀

By "banking" does he mean phoning people up

You can have a bank of people/volunteers who phone registered members.

AWS??

"Phone banking" - cold calling on behalf of the party, I've done it for the lib dems.
You log in to a central thingy and it spits out the next phone number and a script.
In this case looks like they're calling party members and asking for voting intentions in the DL vote.
I'd be surprised if there wasn't a plea for money tagged on the end though

There was a link on another thread on fwr the other day where Labour were canvassing opinion on why it lost the election. I told them in no uncertain terms that it was because of their stance on the GRA and Self-ID and that I was not prepared to vote for them again until they understood the meaning of woman as an adult human female (biological) and were prepared to recognise and protect my sex based rights.

Tell Labour Why They Lost

AWS??

All Women Shortlists.

No such thing though. Words have no meanings for these people.

Good. They need to stop lecturing people from their ivory towers and start listening.
They have got themselves into a ridiculous position on this - and other issues.

They can’t hear with their fingers in their ears.

An example of Labour's All Women Shortlist.

Good news that people are speaking up. Bad that Labour isn’t listening.

Does anyone have a link to the Tweet?

Absolutepowercorrupts - I have a question...

How heartening though that so many people are speaking out about it now.

Surely this will come to a head soon?

Ben has been getting ratiod for 10 hours. This thread appeared 1 hour ago, but according to mimmy it's all our fault.

Hi Helen, by your thinking does that mean Ben is also only phoning FWR contributors. Or could it be that people all over the country see through this nonsense.
