Completely unsurprised by this, considering they hired a racist women hating TS feminist as an advisor. Sorry, "social disruptor".
Labour as it stands is a total mess, and it's going to be fun (or maybe not if you have kids) watching it all blow up should JC get into power.
I saw this discussed a little on news night, Paris Lees spoke well, the audience seemed very receptive and supportive of trans people.
Labour do seem a little lost at the moment. In a way it's a victim of it's own diversity with the rise of pressure groups within it's ranks all lining up to justify their core values, often at the expense of other minorities and certainly at the expense of Labours core values. Pressure groups are not democratic, threatening to walk out on mass isn't democratic.
Peace and love and all that good stuff,

Well said.
So much influence from Momentum and its members, the actual party is a swirling mess of we want this and they want that- forgetting sometimes, you do actually need a middle ground. LGBTQetc issues are hot topics for their main demographic, so I don't see anything massively radical coming through.
Currently, they have nothing to offer me. My council switched to Labour dominated at the botched GE. It's only then we have seen our services systematically cut and their debt pile up. /End soapbox
