Eddie Izzard - Potential Sheffield Lab Mp?


Recommended Posts

Just to clarify - during gender reassignment surgery the ‘vagina’ is nothing more than a cavity created by inverted scrotum.  Prior to surgery careful hair removal needs to be done because it is very painful if it regrows after inversion. Obviously it can’t be removed then.  The body treats it as a hole or wound and tries to heal it so it has to be dilated every day to keep it patent. The penis is resected and also inverted. The patient therefore retains some (most) of his natal genitalia.  Externally it may look similar but it is actually a faux vagina. The patient retains the prostate gland.  The surgery does not turn a male into a female and the surgeon will probably make this clear when the patient signs the consent form. 
 

 A gender recognition certificate does allow the holder to have documents changed to display the sex associated with their acquired gender but this is for legal purposes only. It does not mean that they have literally changed sex and the EHCR guidance reflects this. Sex is a protected characteristic.


Is Eddie Izzard on the Labour Party all women short list? If so, as a man he has no right to be there.

It just shows hat a minefield all women shortlists are, or indeed positive discrimination altogether.

BTW, I though all women shortlists were now deemed illegal ? And rightly so, they're discriminatory as well as patronising, not that they helped Labour get a female leader (much less a female PM) anyway.

And still his/her/its sexuality is the topic and we have yet to discuss his/her/its policies if he/ she/it has any.

Surely her "policies" are that of the Labour Party. She cant really have much say in the matter.

All potential mps I have encountered have been keen to state their views on local issues and state what they would like to do about them. It's not all about the party.

Well maybe once she has been selected they will be known, until then its moot. We have no say if she goes on the ballot or not unless we are local party members.
