Specifically, which Tory conference members or political representatives did you speak to about all this?

See, I disagree very strongly. They have made their thoughts on trans folk very clear and the protections you speak of they have loudly said they will take away. Driving trans folk away from the NHS, claiming they're sex offenders and such. Did you bring any of this up? Did you challenge anyone about this? 
 Got fired by his agency. When he called David Tennant a "groomer" he didn't realise they were both handled by the same agent (Independent Talent).

 The EHRC has appointed Mandy Rhodes to the Scotland Committee, Rhodes runs anti-trans Holyrood magazine. 

Fellow #ScotPol weirdos will also notice arch-melt Tomkins, ex-Tory MSP and staunch Rangers addict.

For an org that is supposed to be about Equalities, this is like putting a fox in yer proverbial chicken coop. More transgressions in the replies.

 Nearly all the UK papers today have articles about the rise of shoplifting but they don't mention:

Loads of folk are skint via govt policies
Loads of folk who are skint have kids to feed
Food banks are struggling to provide because *they're* skint
There's another group who just have less money but still feel entitled to fancy things because of this 4-decades-long Thatcherite obsession with individualism and all its accompanying societal effects

Riots soon, eh. :blobcatcoffee:

 Yeah, I'm sorry, but politics is really a "what have you done for me lately" game. Great, Feinste... 
 In her speech, Braverman said "multi-culturalism has failed". She's 2nd gen working as Home Secretary under an Indian PM. FoH.

 Suella said migrants don't integrate and take on "our" culture. It's not supposed to wipe out your own! It's a MIX.

 Adding to this 6 weeks later. 

Quakers aren't allowing anti-trans orgs to hire their venues, refused permission to anti-trans entryists who tried to start a "GC Quakers" group, no longer stocking a book by a Quaker author because they are anti-trans on social media and they're actively blocking anti-trans people from their social media sites.
