Worth noting that two of the people involved (Tonia Antoniazzi and Ruth Jones) are **currently serving shadow cabinet members** under Starmer.
There’s no point in retaining a Labour Party membership as a trans person under these circumstances- I tossed mine when I saw this. I’m not so bereft of dignity that I’ll continue to pay money to and campaign for an organisation that’s actively working to strip my loved ones of civil rights, and doesn’t see the slightest thing wrong with that.
I don’t expect I’ll even bother to vote at the next election.
the resolution to get the UK taken off the “worst offenders” list being denied is incredibly funny, and while I hope it serves as a wake up call odds are it won’t.
So they wanted to remove statements to the effect that…
UK is on a level with Russia, Poland, and Hungary when it comes to LGBT rights.
There are totes no conflicts between women’s rights and trans rights.
Read the article twice and still don’t know what they are angry about…
