I enjoy & honour my sex-based rights/privileges as a Muslim off-white woman in secular or Christian-light democracy. Fought for by our foremothers. l campaign for other women/minorities to share the same freedoms & protections. Why
@UKLabour
denying sex-based rights? #noselfID
Specifically men saying they feel like a woman, with Labour politicians giving away hard fought sex-based rights? Why are @UKLabour Old Girls Network supporting the Old Boys Network to erase women’s rights? Who gave them permission to do so?(2
I know many Labour people & they weren’t asked. So when did @Keir_Starmer office and leadership team decide women rights weren’t important, who did they consult, what do they actually want us to do, and who benefits from erasing sex-based rights? (3
If Labour believe in self-identification policy so much, why don’t they set it out clearly & plainly for us all to see and read? Why are MPs like Rosie Duffield fighting for their political lives instead of being championed, heard, supported? (4
Why don’t they tell us that Labour believes the Equality Act 2010 needs reviewing as @EqualityActRev campaigns for & say they believe in a hierarchy of rights? Say it with chest as #sitcomchildren say. How religious women will fare with these policies? (5
Why don’t they actually answer the logically questions that arise from self-identification policies? Can l identify as a white man? Can you identify as a black person? If not why not? Why are the parameters set only so privileged mostly white men can do what they feel? (6
Using obtuse or obscuring language will not work. We read, we learn, we network, we campaign, we speak, we act. Saying men can be women because they feel like women, does a disservice to women, men, minorities, gays, lesbians, etc. Sex matters. (7
Science denialism is not a vote-winning look. Sex based rights impact policing, housing, health, religion, economics, education, @UKLabour needs to set out its self identification or otherwise stall. Voters will decide if we trust them with our rights. Stop patronising us pls. (8
