Some councils have banned DQSH in France according to this article in the Times:

Does anyone know Furie Française

Not gonna lie, I read that as Furrie Française! So fury in french is feminine. I think this is a 'plague on both their houses' situation. But, yeah, drag is for adults, whatever the language.

Yes, better not to confused furies and furries Smile
I'm just wondering if they are as rightwing as the article is making them out to be.

That's a fair point, there's nothing wrong with being right wing. They don't like DQSH, neither do I and I liked Corbyn (I know). What else might they be up to? Is it the false teaming we see so often on here? I've learned to take everything MSM and the establishment says, particularly around GI with a massive pinch of salt.

For anybody interested here's a link to coverage in the main regional paper (as mentioned in the Times piece)..

I think they probably are. The article says that Furie Française is "a local group reportedly linked to Génération Identitaire, a racist and xenophobic movement outlawed by the interior ministry in 2021."

This is an article about Génération Identitaire.

All this 'XYZ gender critical person/organisation is right wing' is on a par with 'Hitler was a vegetarian'. Treat it with the contempt it deserves.
