By using your image they may have broken GDRP rules and by using it on a video called tackling transphobia they've called you transphobic. I'd suggest you seek legal representation, I'd happily put some money towards a crowdfunder.
I love her writing - its not a journalists or writers take- its completely her real and very funny - she says everything that needs to be said and she says it in the way we all understand - 'emperors nob is on show' totally nails it - Labour and Starmer deserve nothing but our contempt.
Great article, Rebekah. Demonstrates the very real and pervasive misogyny in the Labour party and made me laugh about it for once - and it is risible when you think about it, the contortions and denial they have to go through to enthusiastically support transmania while avoiding talking about the very obvious anti-women's rights implications of the whole crazy ideology. I left the Labour Party because of this. How many women have to leave before Labour address this? When the tide finally turns, how are they going to explain themselves?
I had the privilege of meeting Rebekah in Glasgow we conversed for age's. She really is fantastic. Brilliant article and they really did pick on the wrong Woman.
"fauxhemian ... emperor's nob ... Wokeback mountain" 🤣 No, Labour Party transvestites (dunno his deadname but it was probably Kevin, Tom, DICK or Hairy), you do not take on a REAL woman with a turn of phrase like this unless you're an utter eejit 🙄🤣
At a Constituency Labour Party not a million miles from you, Graham, some concerned women asked for the Labour Women’s Declaration to be circulated for discussion. This was not done. Apparently it was vetoed by *someone* - at least, that’s the story - but nobody seems to know who.
Meanwhile, 18 of the CLPs that HAVE been allowed to discuss it have voted for it to be presented to conference. Goodness knows how many might have done, if they’d been permitted.
Brilliant speech from Rebekah and I ,as well as countless numbers of other WOMEN all over the world ,agree with every word she said. As an ex Labour voter, having voted Labour all my life ,I wish I had joined the Labour party years ago ,just for the sheer pleasure of terminating my membership now. Labour are a disgrace and no longer represent me ( or indeed any WOMAN in this country.) Sadly ,the same can be said for the Lib Dems ,the Greens and the SNP !! MISOGYNY writ LARGE
Bravo. A magnificent stirring piece. What a woman! If just half the Labour Women who agree would likewise speak up we'd be three quarters of the way to getting this pestilence put back in the box
I've been a Labour Party member for 30 years and have campaigned for Labour in numerous elections but I just don't know what to do now. Do we stay and fight to preserve the party I know and love or is it too late?
Excellent piece of writing: funny passionate and to the point. As a poster said below, if you crowdfund I will donate. I too was a labour party member who left in disgust because of thr rampant misogyny.

I was a member of the Labour Party for 25 years. Since I was a teenager in young Labour under John Smith.
I ended my membership after all this time, due to this issue.
The sense of betrayal is so accute it feels physical.
This party was part of my history, background and culture more than anything I can think of.
From the Huyton PM Harold Wilson, who met both my scouse grandmothers, and was their personal hero.
To my ardent socialist mum, who loathes Tories with all her heart.
This was the party i campaigned for, even as a teenager, went to conferences, was mentored to be a councillor.
All that has gone. I cannot support them. They don’t support women. They actively do women harm.
I believe Labour will never recover from the post modernist invasion. It’s rotted the party to its core.

Good for you Rebekah. It is a shame that no Labour or left wing media cover this.

Great article. Go you for remaining string - and even being able to be funny - in the light of this ridiculous smearing.
[snark]I am still amazed to this day that Corbyn and Labour lost the last election after having told us their pronouns.[/snark]

Fabulous!
This is great! Nails it. Just checking it’s ok to share on Twitter?
