It’s my former political party, the UK Liberal Democrats, conference starting in Bournemouth today.

This likely means the usual TERF suspects are planning to engage in stupid bullshit. Usually this takes the form of trying to submit wrecking amendments to any motion aimed at improving women’s position in society.

For some reason, the uk media insists on referring to these people as “feminists”.

much empathy from the Greens where we have the same damn problem every year. It’s so tiring and I wish we could get rid of them like the Scottish Greens did.

@samsterby i was in the GPEW and left for that reason. unwillingness in the leadership to actually confront this problem. (the election of a leadership whose candidacy was pretty much marked by silence on the issue.)
