As Keir Starmer tries to cool the trans issue, his ‘flip flop’ reputation risks hotting up 🔎 Analysis by paulwaugh via ipaperviews
Starmer’s alternative mantra was “trans rights are human rights”. Yet just two years later, the Labour leader started to say “trans women are women, that is not just my view — that is actually the law”.
Meanwhile, Dodds – seen as “gender critical” by some colleagues – was already quietly working on a policy that would modernise the GRA while working out how far to go. Although Dodds is impeccably loyal, some colleagues mutter that it is not a coincidence that it took a woman to actually seize this policy while the male leader seemed to flounder and flip-flop.
Some female Labour MPs worry that the trans debate means girls who want to cut their hair short, wear trousers or do “boys” subjects are suddenly seen as wanting to change their gender, rather than gender stereotypes. “I didn’t have different lego to my brother as a kid, I didn’t have to wear pink all the time, I thought we had dealt with this years ago,” one said.
but some NHS staff refused to say the case was rape because of the transgender status of the suspect.
