"We are not running away from this issue any longer." Thank goodness. Kemi has guts and passion. I am a gay man and she is hitting the nail on the head.
@@una-janewinfield1667one way to consider is via community organizing. The left does this well and has garnered a lot of support from this method. Perhaps start small and meet with like minded people. Understand and know who your community leaders are and what they stand for. Get familiar with other town reps etc.
I have never ever ever in my entire life been anywhere close to wanting to vote Tory until I saw this. Holy shit. I’m just so relieved to see someone making it clear self ID is not the policy.
It's tempting just to agree, but have you seen the extremely poor display put on by Gillian Keegan in the gender guidance for schools discussions? There are some Tories who just don't understand the seriousness of this, even when it comes to protecting children. 😞
@@carltaylor6452 I confess I haven’t 😬 that sucks to hear… in all honesty I think the tories are useless all round I just think this issue is so important and it’s driving me crazy not having any party to rely on. I’m not sure I could ever vote Tory because of everything they’ve done but it does look like I’ll have to stay home rather than vote for a party that would put self ID through. I don’t know how we got here. It’s asking for so little.
@BooksWeCanRead Same here. I just couldn't vote Tory. Struggling to find anybody else to vote for though. Guess I'll vote Labour and hold my nose. God help us all.
Put IRELAND at the top of the list of countries to remove from the list - in 2015, the Irish legislature scrapped all integrity and good sense to their approach to trans identity, brought in self-ID and enshrined gender identity ideology into Irish law, all without the permission of the Irish people. Oh, and at 9:53, well done to Kemi, for standing up for Rosie Duffield, and calling Labour out on their disgusting treatment of her.
Ireland just lost it's mind a few years back. They are not a weak people so I can only assume massive corruption and external influence (purchasing and or blackmailing of government officials) was behind it.
When Anneliese Dodds refers to LGBT+, she's really talking about TQ+ here (the ones who are all about 'gender identity'). The L, G an B don't need gender self-ID.
It’s so insulting to refer to same sex attracted people forced-teamed with other groups which have nothing to do with homosexuality and the freedom of association that should come with it. It’s as bad as BAME.
I’m gay it angers me so much firstly Q is a slap in the face it’s a slur, secondly, T plus erodes LGB we’re about sexual attraction, it’s more just clothing/ hormones it is sexual anatomy, that’s all sexuality refers to it’s not an identity it’s not a personality it’s who gives sexual stimulation. I don’t get that from women even if she was masculine. The same as how heterosexual going to get it from same-sex. We’re being pushed out of our own community and also overall being branded as gender fluid non-binary all this bull crap. If anything they’ve made it harder for us. I grew up in 2010’s I felt more accepted than I do now I don’t like telling people I’m gay because now I have to explain gender. We should never have been group together. Never mind, they constantly contradict themselves. Look at the trans-pride flag. It’s pink and blue and then say it doesn’t like stereotypes. I am so against child transitioning in puberty blockers. Children don’t have capacity to understand how detrimental it is. Most adults Dont
Fantastic start "It is this Government's policy that the UK does not recognise self identification for the purpose of obtaining a gender recognition certificate".
Kemi is showing clear evidence of courage and conviction….. leadership qualities sorely lacking in most of the current crop of politicians! Kemi for PM!!!
I'm not a Tory at all really but I have to say that I love Kemi Badenoch... she's one of very few MPs that actively points out how sexual orientation is different to gender identity and for the safety and also comfort of children who are gay or bi, the two should not be connected.
Kemi B should have been the choice for PM but the boys and their female collaborators got Sunak in. She is a brilliant orator and her fearlessness against the mob on this particular issue has been brilliant. The only Tory worth electing in my opinion.
I've never voted Tory but this Kemi is a star! Let's hope the government can achieve something here and that a future Labour government will be 'too busy' to go all woky-doky on our asses. (If I may put it in those terms.)
@@danieltalbot8070 But if things are only "worse" in the eyes of a few hateful morons, why should the rest of us give a toss? Trans people having the same rights as everyone else isn't a bad thing, the only people who think it is don't matter.
This is how I feel about all the other self ID countries. I don't care what they are doing, just because others are doing it doesn't mean the UK should. As Kemi says, they are watching us, if we can be bold it might lead to policy reversals elsewhere hopefully.
In most other countries this has been sneaked in under the radar as 'being kind' - we are amongst the first to wake up and realise how stupid and dangerous it is.
Absolutely. In NZ it was snuck in under an update to births/deaths/marriages. The media was completely silent. I doubt many people were aware until it had already gone through. At least UK is fully aware and talking about it openly!
@@zenex1741 Your question is built upon a series of presuppositions: That there is a group of people called 'trans people' that have similar needs and wants. That there is a fundamental lack of rights for some of these people. That people outside of this group enjoy greater rights. The dangers are many and varied. In lumping everyone who feels that they don't quite fit together in one basket, there is a separation of the 'original' trans people (almost exclusively effeminate gay man suffering disabling gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia), from the wider group which includes the non binary, the sexual fetishist (agp), the 'I want to be different' and the simply confused - not to mention tom boys and effeminate males who would likely in the past to have grown up as lesbian and gays (without surgery or medicine to 'fix them'). There is a high danger of vulnerable children, proselytised into the 'religion' of gender ideology, making terrible and irreversible decisions [please don't insult my intelligence by claiming that puberty blockers are reversible]. There is also danger to women from predatory males gaming the system in order to gain access to women and girls: this is already happening. There is also the danger to sport for women and girls. Do you want me to go on? Alternatively, I would recommend the excellent book, 'Trans', by Helen Joyce, which explores all of these themes at length. By the way, I'm so happy I'm in the UK (Terf island as the activists call it) where we are starting to wake up to this evil ideology and starting to realise we need to protect our women and children.
Kemi Badenoch is very impressive in the way she handles questions. I had never heard of her until last year but now I am a big fan. She should go far in politics .. and I hope she does. .. right to that top job
Dodds apparently has no understanding about the Memorandum of Understanding, and the implications of a ban on 'Conversion Therapy' which is worrying. Never voted Tory in my life, but can't deny Badenoch is impressive.
The opposition is also concerned about 'conversion' therapy, without really being honest about what that means. It means banning therapists from exploring the root causes of gender dysphoria and seeking ways of alleviating that without resorting to hormones or surgery.
At last someone has addressed the elephant in the room. Now perhaps we can have a sensible adult discussion about this without all the childish idiotic name calling
Finally, finally. Some sense returning to politics. Thank you so much, Kemi, for this bold and courageous leadership skills displayed here today. About time.
"As a gay man I feel unsafe now more than ever". This is emotional blackmail. Compassion, care, my truth, my feelings, I feel offended all liberal leftists catch phrases.
Kemi may be going against the will of the Scottish parliament, she is not however going against the will of the Scottish people. The Scottish parliament do not speak for Scottish people, the Scottish people do.
This is such an important conversation! Our children need protection. Our men and boys need protection. Our women and girls need protection. I hope hat the United States will take this action seriously and be right behind the UK in this movement.
Sorry a man larping as a woman should most definitely be in question. Decent men don’t use women’s spaces. I will question any man if he comes into my space and very loudly.
Hate Crime legislation is worthless as long as it omits and turns a blind eye to the biggest victims of hate crime in our society, women. I'd vote for a party that abolishes that act.
This is probably the stupidest take I've heard in this comment section. Other people being granted the same rights as you, doesn't mean you have less rights... To think so, makes you sound like an absolute simpleton.
@@zenex1741 explain your reasoning rather then throw insults about, I suspect you have zero understanding of the matters involved which is why you throw ad hominems and go off on a tangent.
@@GreatSageSunWukong If you've lived your life being given an apple every day, and someone else is born and they are given an apple every day, do you have 1 or 0 apples every day? I'm sorry I can't make it any simpler for you, if you still don't get it it's because you're beyond help.
For anyone saying they're going to vote tory based on Kemi's approach here, please reconsider as one good policy does not make up for all the other bad ones
Being near the top in a league defined by NGOs like the Stonewall of today is not an honour! Falling to 17th might be. The gay men who spoke were they currently teenagers would probably have their promising career as gay men literally cut short, the gay transed away. The reason that gay people feel unsafer now is because a constituency (TQ+) which has nothing to do with actually being gay has piggybacked on what was a legitimate civil rights movement; and since people's level of sophistication in these matters is not particularly high, and because the "alphabet soup" insists on lumping us all together in an inappropriate way, ill feeling against the excesses of certain transactivist extremists is rebounding upon ordinary gays.
I see quite a few people in the comments who apparently have never voted Conservative are now reconsidering on the basis of 1 statutory instrument. Ignoring the fact that it's Tories who have presided over the exponential growth of gender ideology and the harms caused. In fact it was Theresa May who was pushing for a change to self-id. So I won't b😮e forgiving or forgetting their part in this horror show and I certainly can't and won't sidestep their treatment and gross abuses against the most vulnerable in society, namely sick and disabled people, many of whom have actually lost their lives as a direct result of tory party 'welfare reform'.
Who do you intend to vote for next year? Not trolling, genuine question. I've felt politically homeless for some time now but this will be a key issue for me when it comes to next year's election. I don't have faith in any of the parties and the chances of Kemi becoming the leader of the party of women is non existent.
@wolfhugs2221 Unfortunately, it will be another spoiled ballot, although if there is an independent standing in my area, I'll consider voting for them dependent on their manifesto.
@@toni6053 I spoilt the ballot last time. If there was a party with a clear pro women message, even if they stood no chance, I'd vote for them as a tactical move but there's just nothing. I work in the public sector and see daily the damage of the cuts of the last 13 years, with no improvement in the national debt, which is what the cuts were apparently going to improve. A bunch of rich people have 100% taken the proverbial out of everyone else. The continuing "uh, uh, what?" idiocy around women's rights from all the political parties feels like a continued mockery.
We are all tired of the disingenuous virtue signalling of politicians using the labelled ‘people at risk’ merely for political point gain and scoring. And a straight presenting gay man is afraid of words, get a backbone brother.
Well done Kemi - and as usual Labour playing politics and trying to moralise feelings in the absence of facts especially the member for Rhonda which appears to be his standard bully boy tactic when confronted with facts to dive to his feelings - again this also appears to be his main tactic - quite pathetic but that's obviously all he's got.
