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.

Oh really? I thought she was horrified-laughing! 😂

Watched again and she looks v worried - can't tell if clapping is because she feels she has to or because she's genuinely concerned

I do feel uncomfortable watching it.

two white males reprimanding predominantly black, Asian and ethnic minorities for their misdemeanours based on some sort of imaginary hierarchy that elevates them above everyone else.

The twitter thread linked upthread about working class women's services, single sex spaces for homeless women, being lectured by rainbow non binary middle and upper class people who've never experienced any type of hardship is the same.

To repeat a PP'a link on homeless women

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.

This wont happen, he will be so castigated and criticised he will likely turn zealot to compensate.

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.

Surely to God, there is somebody, probably in the Green party, who claims a different gender again, and they will all have to get used to zees and the zies. Or someone who is perfectly happy to say they are, in order to make them get used to the zees and zies, just for the crack.

Then you'll get another set of pronouns. And a third set.

Come on, where's their creativity.

Fucking ridiculous.

Not Emma, obviously, but the abuse of the system she's describing in her tweet.
