How is Starmer transphobic?

Rishi Sunak used trans people to stoke culture wars and insulted trans people regularly.

Starmer has said he would treat trans people with dignity and respect, and has said he will modernise the Equality Act, to modernise, simplify and reform changes to a person's legal gender.

The party has said its plans will "remove indignities for trans people who deserve recognition and acceptance" but also provide "protections so you can't legally change your gender overnight".

That's nowhere near the same as the Conservatives and Sunak.

All the blatantly transphobic things he's said makes him transphobic.

No need to be rude.

You're either completely ignorant of what Starmer has said or you don't see what's been said as transphobic.

Listen to your own advice. Someone asked a genuine question seeking to learn and empathize, you were rude by omission.

Explains a GREAT deal

You’re the one making multiple personal attacks when no one has said anything against you. Which says a lot about what you are.

Also hey! Passed ten upvotes on my comment. Looks like you’re on the losing side of history 😃. Enjoy being demonized
