Laurence Fox burning inclusivity flags is the nadir of an already sinister Pride month 🖊️ PatrickStrud via ipaperviews
At a party attended by Tory MPs earlier this month, Sunak said of the Liberal Democrat leader: “You might have noticed that Ed Davey has been very busy. Like me you can probably see that he was trying to convince everybody that women clearly had penises.” Laughter erupted among the attendees. He continued: “You all know that I’m a big fan of everybody studying maths to 18, but it turns out that we need to focus on biology.
Here’s a lesson in biology and law for the Prime Minister. Under the Gender Recognition Act 2004, this country recognises the gender identity of trans people, and surgery is not essential for that. But again, facts are now aflame. The Prime Minister’s spokesperson said: “You’ve heard the Prime Minister talk about his enormous compassionate understanding for people questioning their identity and that they should be treated with dignity and respect… On this specific issue, these are points he’s made in interviews, publicly… My understanding is that this was a joke aimed at a political opponent rather than a specific group.
The problem with history repeating, or rhyming, is that now we have social media, with its wildfire conspiracy theories about minorities. This weekend we saw this crossover in the unlikely form of Take That singer. He “liked” tweets claiming “Covid was a scam”, along with tweets denying the existence of trans people and calls to “defund Disney” for hosting a Pride concert. He’s since been dropped from performing at a Pride event, and has apologised. How convenient.
