Just starting writing to parliamentary candidates (I only know who the Labour and Conservative ones are) This is my message to the Labour candidate:
'I am writing regarding my deep concern that Labour is going to roll back women's rights while bowing to those who promote trans ideology. Over the last fifteen years this ideology has gained a grip in our public institutions including schools, the NHS and the civil service. This has led to some appalling consequences including the deeply harmful medicalisation of gender distress in children which was revealed in the Cass Report. I have been encouraged by Wes Streeting's statements on this matter and hope this signals a change in how Labour address this issue, but am concerned that making it easier to self ID as the opposite sex will create a situation where women are unable to challenge men who access women's spaces. Trans ideology is deeply homophobic and misogynistic. It tells same sex attracted and gender non conforming people that they have been born in the wrong body and need hormones and surgeries to make this 'right' and even men who have not had reassignment surgery demand the right to access women's spaces if they 'feel' like a woman.
I refer you to the Sex Matters website https://sex-matters.org/posts/updates/ge2024-stand-up-for-single-sex-services/ whose election asks I agree with and request that you reply to me as a local voter outlining your position on this issue. The issue of single sex spaces is too important for me to vote for a political party that will not protect women's rights in this matter.'
Ill be doing the Conservatives next. We live in the middle of nowhere and are unlikely to get canvassers round. Anyone else campaigning in this way?
