I don’t want to get all galaxy brained here but if the spooks had sat the politicians down and said Look: it’s very important that Britain goes fascist by 2030 and that’s that, what are you going to do about it? They would be doing pretty much all of this, wouldn’t they.

Satvir, are you going to speak out about your party going full BNP on immigration? It is shocking that they think they can appease the far right by caving in to its demands. Meanwhile lives will be ruined and many more former supporters will turn away from Labour in disgust.

Third image here is a summary of things he’s personally done and said. He’s been pretty unambiguous in attacking trans people, unfortunately.

Updated: Starmer’s Labour: The most anti-LGBT+ govt since Thatcher. A list of the awful things they've done and said regarding LGBT+ people, especially trans people.
Labour: Ditched its longstanding pledge to demedicalise gender recognition for trans people before the 2024 election • And then abandoned even plans for watered-down reform • Made the Tories’ temporary ban on puberty blockers for trans children indefinite • Endorsed the flawed and discredited Cass Review • Refused to pass legislation to protect trans people’s gender recognition following the recent Supreme Court ruling • Introduced a new Section 28 for trans people • Banned trans women from standing for internal Women’s Officer posts • Oversaw the UK dropping to its lowest ever place in the ILGA-Europe rankings of LGBT+ rights in European countries • Has adopted covertly transphobic language (‘sex-based rights’, ‘transmen’, ‘transwomen’) in internal documentation • Took no action against Rosie Duffield even after years of vile social media posts targeting trans (and bi) people – including sharing a post denying Nazi persecution of trans people • Re-elected Duffield Women’s PLP Chair on International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia 2021 • Suspended the whip from Stonewall founder Michael Cashman for (rightly) criticising Duffield • Reappointed a ‘gender-critical’ bigot, Baroness Falkner, as Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission • Then tried to appoint ANOTHER ‘gender-critical’ figure, Mary-Ann Stephenson, as Falkner’s successor! • Suspended Lloyd Russell-Moyle, a gay MP and one of the most vocal pro-trans parliamentarians, on bogus charges shortly before the last election • Oversaw the introduction of new CPS guidelines that put trans people at risk of prosecution if they do not disclose their gender identity before having sex • Multiple Labour MPs attempted to dilute a motion at the Council of Europe condemning anti-LGBT+ hatred • Labour MPs abstained on backing trans rights in Scotland • Unlike other European countries, has not issued updated travel warnings for trans travellers to the US • Hosts anti-trans groups at its conferences Health Secretary Wes Streeting: Responded to the (flawed, discredited) Cass Review by saying he’d been wrong to say trans women are women • Banned the use of puberty blockers, against international best practice and evidence, and severely restricted gender healthcare for trans children • Supports segregation of trans patients in hospitals • Has expressed sympathy for conversion therapy groups • Implemented a ban on young trans people being able to obtain hormone therapy outside the NHS • Has overseen guidance directing GPs not to monitor trans people’s blood values – putting them at harm if they are forced to self-medicate due to NHS failings • Wrote in The Sun to share the lie that the NHS no longer uses the term ‘women’ • Shared the false claim that the practice history of doctors who transition to a new legal gender would not be disclosed to patients • Shared false claims that terms such as ‘breastfeeding’ are being ‘erased’ • Invited transphobic groups to produce NHS exclusion guidelines • Has overseen a rise in GPs refusing hormone prescriptions to trans people, which can have serious mental and physical health consequences • Responded to the recent Supreme Court ruling by calling on those who’d previously recognised trans people’s lived gender identities to reconsider • Was named What the Trans ‘Villain of the Year’ in 2024 • Issued an apology to Duffield for how she had been treated, ignoring her years of vitriol against trans people on social media STARMER’S LABOUR: THE MOST ANTI-LGBT+ GOVT SINCE THATCHER Prime Minister Keir Starmer: Responded to the recent Supreme Court ruling by declaring that trans women are not women • Attended a deeply homophobic church to deliver his Easter message • Then did it AGAIN two years later! • Supports the exclusion of trans women from sports • Refused to meet with trans Labour members to discuss concerns about institutional transphobia in the party • Left Marsha de Cordova in post as Shadow Equalities Secretary even after she shared overtly transphobic content on social media • Staged a fake meeting with LGBT+ community members (in reality all Labour staffers/councillors) for a publicity stunt • In 2023, expressed ‘concerns’ about the Gender Recognition Reform Bill in Scotland that was supported by his Scottish Labour colleagues • Believes trans children should require parental permission to socially transition Education Secretary and ‘Equalities’ Minister Bridget Phillipson: Responded to the recent Supreme Court ruling by immediately declaring trans people should use toilets according to ‘biological sex’ • Supports the removal of anti-transphobia policies at universities • Supports trans schoolchildren being outed to their parents • Welcomed the fine imposed on the University of Sussex due to students using their free speech to protest campus transphobia • Erased the word ‘trans’ from the new schools guidance • Prohibited schools from promoting ‘gender identity’ and ‘social transition’ – Section 28 all over again • Requires schools to misrepresent the law about ‘biological sex’ and gender recognition STARMER’S LABOUR: THE MOST ANTI-LGBT+ GOVT SINCE THATCHER Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood: During protests against LGBT-inclusive RSE in schools, argued that pupils’ ‘religious background’ and ‘age appropriateness’ should be considered • Agrees with J.

Streeting has undermined himself by bettaying LGBT+ people and making statements/policies that remove trans people’s rights and dignity. He shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near power.
