It shows you care about autonomy, real freedom, equality, evidence based policy

Taking strong positions on human rights is popular actually 👏
It demonstrates that your principles are real and apply to everyone 👏
Bigots are a tiny but well funded minority 👏
Show them the door to build genuinely broad popular support 👏

If Labour wants to "follow" the politics that endangers our trans whanau for donor funds,
The Greens will lead the politics of protecting our trans whanau against imported fascism.

This is my position. I can’t believe they’re continuing to use this excuse when the “culture war” has already led to legislation being used to directly contravene the human rights of trans people. Lab wanting to follow and not lead *is* putting kids at risk.
Hipkins response to me was basically, "we absolutely support trans people & will reverse it, but we don't want to start a culture war that would put trans kids at risk."
It doesn't make sense. WP has already started the war, TPM & the Greens response didn't start a flare up of hate afaik.

There is no moderate position against rampant bigoted attacks on minorities, about banning their mention in education, barring them from medical treatment and attempting to legislate them out of sports, clubs, even using the fucking toilet. There's no middle ground when they're sowing it with salt.

Oh. Right. Keir Starmerism. You might need Winston, because you lack the backbone and conviction to try and end his way too long career. A poll might mean you lose the psychotic transphobe vote, not that you ever fucking had it. Don't scare the horses, just harm the kids. Yeah great wonderful.

The Labour Party that got gay marriage into legislation, passed the BDMRR and banned conversion therapy should be able to clearly defend their own record and stand up for the ideological vandalism conducted against trans dignity and the LGBTQI community. If it can't, what the fuck are you doing.

If any NZ Labour MPs, or candidates, are seeing this - nah, it's not good enough for your leader to adopt a fence position while our community is under threat even if you've all been given the go to say "what we actually mean is". He's a leader, if he isn't leading, he's losing.

This. If it's not true, there's a really easy way to prove it.
Individuals speaking up is wonderful to see, but it’s not as powerful as showing leadership by using a broader platform in support.
Regardless of their reasons for not doing this, imo it *looks* self-serving, and like there’s a base (or a potential coalition partner) they don’t want to antagonise.

I have had Labour MPs give me their word they’d reverse it, and I appreciate that. I also know our communities won’t trust that until they hear it themselves, in public - especially having watched how UK Labour handled this.

As a member of the rainbow community I don’t think it’s okay that Labour still hasn’t put out an official press release supporting the trans community - regardless of whether they end up in a coalition with NZ First, I’ll remember that they didn’t use their platform - despite their stated values.
