They Win

These so called trans rights activists are a noisy minority. They do not represent trans people and should be ignored. The noise they make is disproportionate to their importance. By not attending her party conference, Rosie Duffield concedes defeat to these people.

It comes after Canterbury MP Rosie Duffield revealed she would miss the upcoming Labour Party conference following threats from transgender rights activists.

Ms Duffield, who won her seat in 2017 from the Conservatives, claims she has been branded transphobic for ‘knowing that only women have a cervix’.

The 50-year-old MP has also previously waded into the debate about access to female-only spaces.

Well, only women do have a cervix. This is simply a biological fact. However, regardless of what she may have said, she has a right to say it. By not attending, they win.

The actual likelihood of any of them carrying out their threats is very low, frankly. The twitterti are all noise and no action. The best response – beyond simply ignoring them – is to give a firm middle finger to them and then ignoring them.

The group met to discuss threats aimed at elected politicians. The murder of MP Jo Cox by far-right extremist Thomas Mair in 2016 and the attack on America’s Capitol building earlier this year were among the topics discussed.

The attack on the Capitol building was hardly anything of the sort. This has been made much of, yet was little more than a bunch of people who were let in by the security forces and then went about taking selfies. This minor embarrassment has been paraded as if it was some sort of insurrection, meanwhile choosing to ignore the “mostly peaceful” protests by the Antifa/BLM mob who were burning, looting and murdering their way through blue state metropolises. The loss of life at the Capitol pales into insignificance compared. If it was an armed insurrection, it wasn’t a very good one.

Yes, sure, the murder of Jo Cox was shocking, but the idea that there is some sort of far right conspiracy to murder politicians is a fantasy. This was a one-off nutter. Okay, yes, something similar could happen again, but that is a risk of taking an elected role. There is a possibility that someone will try to injure or kill you. If it’s that big a concern, don’t do it in the first place. If, however, you decide to do it, take reasonable steps to minimise the risk and carry on. Failure to do this hands them a victory without them even having to lift a weapon.

According to the Sunday Times, those attending the conference are set to sign a pledge later today aiming to improve the safety of politicians and crack down on social media trolling.

Of course… These people have no idea what trolling is, but they want to crack down on it anyway. What they want to crack down on is contrary voices who say hurty things. After all, death threats are already rightly illegal. What’s interesting is that they are on the same side as the loud mouthed trans activists who also want to shut down dissent. The irony is lost on these people.

Meanwhile, Ms Duffield, a mother-of-two, told the paper that the online attacks on her were coming ‘mostly from men’ and ‘very woke women’.

She said: ‘There are some women who get involved and want to be seen to be very woke … but mostly it is men, and the same men that have trolled me ever since I got elected.’

‘So it looks like, feels like and smells like misogyny, and this is just the latest cause they have latched on to … The fact that I am blonde — they call me a bimbo.

‘The fact that I don’t like antisemitism. There is always something, but it is always the same people who attack me.’

Welcome to the left. These people are her fellow travellers. It ain’t the right who are doing this. It’s those on her own side.

However she said that the decision to not to attend the conference was primarily down to her not wanting to make her security an issue and that she did not want to be ‘the centre of attention’.

I think you already did that.

  1. According to the Sunday Times, she also said that those posting the death threats were “straight white males”.

    So I have very little sympathy for this racist sexist cow.

  2. “…little more than a bunch of people who were let in by the security forces and then went about taking selfies. “

    And getting themselves shot by trigger-happy goons. Something the Left are usually dead set against, but which has oddly attracted no protest this time.

  3. …the attack on America’s Capitol building…

    Otherwise known as ‘the slightly disorderly sightseeing tour’ or, more succinctly, ‘the meandering’.
