Labour's war on trans people should be held against the party forever, in the same way that Section 28 is still held against the Tories. This is not something that can or should ever be forgiven. Someday, a future Labour leader will offer a tearful apology for this. They should be told to fuck off. - ThreadSky

Labour wants to be aligned with the international far right, and particularly to impress Trump. All their representatives should be treated with contempt and hostility.

I cringe every time I see the US Dems treating Labour as their natural UK ally. They'd do so much better reaching out to the Greens and Lib Dems.

terrypasta.bsky.social•93 days ago

Tbf the US Dems belong deep in the bowels of hell.

kd-smith.bsky.social•93 days ago

Yes, US Democrats and Labour in the UK seem to be out-doing each other in a slide further towards the right and further from their core voters.

arkenor.bsky.social•93 days ago

Here at least we have other decent parties capable of getting elected.

terrypasta.bsky.social•93 days ago

Where's here?

kd-smith.bsky.social•93 days ago

Enough to form a Government?

I wish.

The Dems are more right wing that Starmers Labour.

terrypasta.bsky.social•93 days ago

They're about equal. You don't get more right-wing than cheering on genocide.

PB should be given to ALL kids, just like the standard inoculations as they grow up. They can then decide their own gender when the time is right. But also we can't lose sight that biology doesn't define gender, so you could also have a male puberty and be a woman. ❤️

Unless the tearful apology is swiftly followed by a pledge of significant financial restitution for those affected.

We’ll take it but no actually its still Fuck Off

This is such a great tweet Jim. You are absolutely right.

Pretty much certain this will be the last iteration of the labour party as we used to know it, it's the Liberal Party or the SDP of the 90's, it's had its chance & blown it.
Completely.

Where is the solidarity among the rest of the LGBT community? Why does the whole LGBT community not tell Labour to Eff off right now?

mxgeorgiegirl.bsky.social•93 days ago

Well said 👏 absolutely 🤷‍♀️

leemartxn.bsky.social•93 days ago

Honestly, I hold no hope that society, or labour, will get to a point where a tearful apology will be made

greasyboiler.bsky.social•93 days ago

and all the media arseholes they're trying to placate will still call them woke anyway

For the time being, there is no compelling political reason for Labour to let off their stance. Voting? No risk. Resistance? Where & who? International consequences? Lol. On the contrary - they can use this wedge in dealings with Scotland and NI to achieve other objectives.

Future regrets? Hah.

Blair used the panic about benefits for single mothers in the same way - to prove his Thatcheresque virility.

Nauseating.

Have you ever succeeded at anything in your entire life? Maybe you should focus on your immediate problems, as I expect you have many.
