this is how every single winning case from a so-called "gender critical" bigot has gone. as far as I'm aware it's never been found that bigotry was unjust grounds for their removal, just that the organisations involved repeatedly fail to follow proper procedure to do so
and I understand why, well-meaning cis people rush things in the noble pursuit of binning a bigot but they're too tragically ill-informed to realise just how much funding there is behind these lawfare cases
The party has an implied duty of fairness to all members but... Shock horror that also includes trans people. The party has had to make payouts where trans people were discriminated against. Protected status includes reassignment and perceived gender. GCs don't have privileged status to bully
Completely agree that we have a duty of fairness to all members, including procedural fairness throughout the complaints and disciplinary process. Getting that right is key to minimising any legal costs. Nobody has, or should have, a privileged status to bully.
I think the talk about protected beliefs is a red herring, and seems to be used by some (not yourself) to intentionally create a chilling effect around the party's willingness to take action against transphobic harassment. Which is why it makes me uncomfortable to hear it from GPEX candidates.
Explain why you supported a recall motion for two north west gprc reps for the putting in a complaint against another member? Why you discussed the content of that complaint in a public meeting, breaching confidentiality?
I am not making any comment on that in a public forum
You already did. That horse has bolted. I'm taking that as an admission of guilt.
