Good to see the Tories once again taking on the real issues that the public really cares about like making lives harder for the tiny minority of people who are transgender and not getting caught up in petty culture war issues like dealing with the housing crisis or struggling public services.
You might be in danger of losing your home and unable to get a GP appointment but at least they’re fighting the good fight and making life harder for LGBT+ people you’ll never meet.
It’s says she is also the business and trade secretary. Should these sort of jobs be allowed to have one person for multiple roles?
How can she be handling massive Brexit driven trade issues if she’s busy attacking LGBT+ people _for no apparent reason_.
How is this important at all, let alone in comparison to issues with business and trade this country is facing. The incompetency is unreal.
They are so despicable and deluded to think this is what people care about. All they can do is pick on people with the least power and scapegoat them.
This is just pathetic. Most people have no strong opinions on transgender people, and frankly the trans population is so small, it has zero effect on the lives of most people. Yet we have a government and press which has decided to devote an incredible amount of time (and no doubt money) into endlessly vilifying them.
Can this government please just leave trans people alone for 5 minutes
These countries have implemented self-ID policies and have faced absolutely no issues with them. All the hypotheticals that transphobes in this country insisted would happen if we passed self-ID laws in this country did not happen when those countries passed self-ID laws.
And in the face of this overwhelming evidence, our government have decided to not just ignore it, but actively discriminate against those who have transitioned in these countries. Apparently 50 countries, 1/4 of the world, are not transphobic enough for our government. Absolutely shameful.
And I’m sure the ‘actually it’s just about fairness in sport’ crowd will be along any moment now to quickly shift the goalposts a few more yards and insist they always supported stripping trans migrants of their rights and identities.
And this is why Sir Kid Starver is going to walk into Parliament this time next year with a Labour supermajority.
Because somehow, refusing to retract the two child limit on child benefit is less evil than waging a war on trans rights that’s going to isolate us even further from the rest of the world and make us look like xenophobic troglodytes.
If we are stupid enough to blacklist countries for recognizing more than two genders, then we can kiss goodbye to any kind of diplomatic relations with…
* Denmark
* Spain
* Germany
* Ireland
* Malta
* Luxembourg
* Belgium
* Portugal
* Pakistan
* Bangladesh
* United States
* New Zealand
Someone needs to tell Kemi that you don’t need to be evil, to play a villain in panto. Which is where she will be next Christmas.
