Obligatory “Fuck the Tories” but honestly what do they think this will achieve? It’s just some rainbow lanyards and posters that say the services are inclusive. Those posters are already printed. They aren’t going in and taking them down. Similarly the staff aren’t just going to hand over their rainbow lanyards and say “oh well, time to chuck them on the bonfire”
This is not the first time the government has intervened in the NHS Rainbow Badge scheme, one whistleblower added. “Last year, the national team tried to change the pin badge to the ‘Progress Pride flag,’ which is more inclusive for trans people and people of colour. It was blocked by the Department of Health and Social Care. They said it was too woke.”
I get the sense that this is all just a PR move. Tories de-funding the NHS is a tale as old as Thatcher and this type of story probably plays well with their base demographic of “American Idiot” style Brits. They know it’s an election year and they know they need to get that TERF vote. Something like this will play well on
TwitterX.It’s a pointless move, but it helps them in their aim of adopting America’s anti-woke culture war rhetoric.
FART island at it again.
What’s that acronym? :o I’ve only seen TERF island
Feminist Appropriating Radical Transphobe
Ohhh I see, so it’s like saying that TERFs aren’t really feminists? Thanks!
