I live in a semi-rural area where Labour campaigning like mad for the local elections. The results were Conservative at the last council election. I wrote to the Labour Party about the MOMA bill readings and the Labour party thinking that sex wasn't a protected characteristic and the party of view on women's protections under the law. Recent threads about surrogacy and the MOMA bill reading here have really got me angry with how we are being treated.
I've had a reply and it refers me to the Equality Act page on the Labour party website. It doesn't mention sex at all on the protected characteristics section. Gender assignment has got it's own bit.
Is it pedantic to write back and say, that was my point? Sex is one of the protected characteristics, you've even taken it out of your explanation about the 2010 Equality Act, this isn't correct.
