It's great news that Shabana Mahmood MP, as Labour's shadow Justice Secretary, has come out in favour of "gender critical" freedom of speech, and as a believer in the immutability of biological sex: and even referring by name to JKR -- as the GC heroine and curse of transactivists.
Especially added to the recent apologies of Wes Streeting MP as shadow Health Secretar, for his previous adherence to the transactivist line (and the fact he's not been fired from his post by Starmer), Mahmood's declaration leaves me much more hopeful that a Labour government would resist and reduce the relentless hold of transactivism over all our major institutions, rather than propping it up.
Though I still can't quite bring myself to vote for re-election of a vociferously transactivist and misogynist local Labour MP.

Did you get any press on this? I hope so. This will be the nail in the coffin for gender ideology, if one is needed after Cass.
