The UK's transphobes are in vicious revenge mode, with secondary victimisation against anyone who has ever supported trans rights. The Mail on Sunday took the victimisation to a tertiary level, attacking Keir Starmer for having dated a supporter of #trans rights, over 10yrs ago.

It's like McCarthyism in the USA. Are you now or have you ever been a supporter of human rights for trans people? Confess your sinful inclusiveness, and repent!

But they didn't get the scalp of Maggie Chapman. >>

Today, Scottish Labour joined the Blue Tories to try to expel Green MSP Maggie Chapman from the #ScottishParliament's Equalities Committee. They failed, and Chapman stood her ground.

It's grim to watch Labour join in the Tory witch-hunt against anyone who fails to crap on trans people. Bad enough that both Red&Blue #Tories have surrendered to TERFs, but the vindictiveness is shocking.

@2legged they’re not Labour they’re Tory
