Just out of interest, did any trans Labour MPs go?

Yeah, perhaps Streeting sees transphobia as a get-out-of-Hell free card to make up for all the filthy sodomy.

Why do the slimy chaser/far-right types always have to write in that stupid "I don't quite understand what you're trying to say here" way?

Badenoch is a bit like a rabid dog, in that she is what she is, and can't really choose to be any other way. Foaming at the mouth hatred is all she's capable of. Starmer and Streeting, on the other hand, know exactly what they're doing, and chose to do it for cynical gain.

It's true that the Tories stuffed NHS institutions with transphobes, but not removing (or sidelining) them was 100% a Labour decision. This latest surge in transphobia (including the Supreme Court decision, which they could have overturned but didn't) is 100% Labour policy and 100% Labour's fault.

She probably supports them.

With a few more genes, and you could make vast amounts of estrogen.

Most of these right-wing attacks on The Greens are so unhinged that they barely make semantic sense.

If Streeting feels anything at all about the deaths he's caused, it's most likely sadistic pleasure, possibly mixed in with sexual arousal.

@goodlawproject.org Question: Does this mean that the proposal of having a trans-inclusive men's bathroom, a trans-inclusive women's bathroom, and a single-cubicle "extra privacy" bathroom is viable?

Just look at the numbers:

In 2019, Labour under Corbyn got 10.27 million votes.
In 2024, Labour under Starmer got 9.71 million votes.

Labour also did badly. They only won the election because the Tory vote utterly collapsed.

Doesn't the Times newsroom also have its own Nick Cohen equivalent?

The "single sex spaces" mess was a test for Starmer, and he's already failed it. While the supreme court ruling wasn't his fault at the time, his subsequent failure to introduce legislation overturning it has made it entirely his fault.

Starmer has killed hope. When the Tories were the nasty party, we could at least hope for something better. Now that Labour are the nasty party, we must dread an opposition that's even worse.

Would the ethical issues with lab-grown human meat be resolved if the cells were cloned from Hitler's DNA? Or would that make things worse?

In a broad sense, she's probably telling the truth. Sexual predators are often good at choosing victims who won't be believed.

Trying to identify a specific gender critical man as the predatory creep who's probably just in it for the alibi doesn't exactly narrow it down.

Is there any snappy phrase or eponymous law based on the principle that if someone feels the need to declare they've won, they in fact haven't won? Because there really needs to be one.

As with the EHRC, I think there has been a deliberate wrecking strategy, where there first stage (now pretty much complete in both cases) is to corrupt the organisation to the extent that the people who would defended it the hardest instead see it as irretrievably broken.
