I am a firm believer that "No self-respecting woman should wish or work for the success of a party who ignores her sex."
So for many years I have spoilt my vote. I take it that apart from Laurence Fox no candidates/parties have managed to state clearly that they know what a woman is and can understand that women's sex based rights cannot be protected without the definition of "woman" being based in biology?

Seriously interested in this question too.... skimming through the candidates I don't think there is but there were one (or two?) independents (women) I wanted to know more about

Your current options, as a single issue voter are:

Laurence Fox - Nuff said.
David Kurten (Heritage Party), who asked Sadiq Khan to clarify what trans women are women meant.

See thread, which features video of him quizzing Khan on this, and discussion of what else Kurten supports.

Or Count Binface, who has not said anything about women's rights, but has a manifesto proposing the reintroduction of Ceefax.

Only Fox and Kurten

But Kurten is anti abortion, so Fox it is.
