Newham Green Party leader storms out of council meeting

For being repeatedly misgendered.

However, listening to the recording, it's clear that the councillor tries very hard to get it right, but struggles with the ensuing grammatical errors it forces him to make.

- - Glinner Done a bit on this....person. He's been all over the gender spectrum but has consistently been an idiotic narcissist. - -

One of the candidates for the women’s role in London was Danny Keeling. He describes himself as “genderqueer” and doesn’t identify as either male or female…

So, did them get both roles?

Hopefully them did.

I wonder what it would be like to actually be governed by thems? With all their little battles over who call whichthem what, would there be any time for them to deal with budget allocation for any issues other than drag queen story time? Whither potholes, I wonder...

Look at all the misgendering in his green party biography.

Literal violets everywhere, maybe Danny should report Danny for discrimination

Ooh that looks dreadfully unsafe.

I would like to know exactly what danger ensues from referring to a chap who looks like a chap and could cope with referring to himself as he until recently , as "he".

Violets cascading from the skies and bumping the poor lad on the head presumably

One day Danny will grow up, look back at his younger self, and this ‘fuck me, what a self righteous prick I was’.

You're an optimist! It will all be airbrushed out when Danny moves on to whatever Dannyself decides to do next.

I wish I could say I was shocked!

The amount of times I was misgendered at work over the years!

Did I make anyone feel bad about it? No!

Genuinely hilarious. The Green Party could be really popular but they are absolutely committed to the gender madness.

ReunitedThorns · 28/02/2023 19:00

Can't help but feel the undertones of racism from the Green Party there. They seem to really enjoy criticising ethnic minorities for bigotry.

That's hilarious Grin

Ffs it's Dannny, it says so in his twitter handle. Just stop it with the all of the gratuitous mis-n-dering.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 28/02/2023 19:14

Were two ns not quite special enough?

My favourite bit is right at the end where the guy apologises for it then says 'I'll apologise to him when he gets back' 😂

The woman's face behind him was a picture!

People should go into politics because it's all about the people they represent. Not because it's all about them.

A very good principle, but who is going to tell the current cabinet?

Show quote history

To be fair, the current cabinet have gone into politics for precisely that reason. How else will the poor financial elite get representation otherwise?

Reminiscent of this classic from a few years back. A Lewisham councillor coming out as circumgender. Zoom in on the men on the back row.

^Lewisham councillor comes out to council colleagues as circumgender/trans:
a circumwoman is someone born female & identifies as female, but thinks she should have been born male & transitioned to female, because they feel like they are trans.^

My head hurts.

This is hilarious but I do hope the councillor doesn’t waste too much time chastising himself for this and instead reflects on the episode and begins to see it for the narcissistic behaviour it is.
