This is the whole point - most people except a few dick heads are happy to support and accept them and their choices
BUT there are several billion reasons why global sport cannot roll over and put gender choice over biological reality
I salute JK Rowling and Sharon Davies who have stuck to their guns throughout this in the face of some ferocious criticism
Quality, that.
Career enhancing or destroying….
Judging by this lot, the latter
Johnson has spoken regarding those who don’t have johnsons or don’t want johnsons
"I don’t think biological males should be competing in female sporting events. Maybe that’s a controversial thing to say, but it just seems to me to be sensible.
"I also happen to think that women should have spaces - whether it’s in hospitals, prison or changing rooms - which are dedicated to women. That’s as far as my thinking has developed on this issue.
"If that puts me in conflict with some others, then we have got to work it all out. It doesn’t mean I’m not immensely sympathetic to people who want to change gender, to transition and it’s vital we give people the maximum love and support in making those decisions.
“These are complex issues and they can’t be solved with one swift, easy piece of legislation. It takes a lot of thought to get this right.”
I agree with all of that, and it’s very eloquent. Who wrote it for him?

Its a smart move on his part given that the labour front bench seem to be tying themselves in knots over the issue
The next election will be another culture war.

The sad thing is the Tories will probably be able to win on shit like this.
Johnson’s views on this are even more majority-held than leaving the EU.
It’s the first thing that has come out of his mouth which I haven’t thought Bullshit for several years
FFS.
In a time when homosexuality was a federal crime in the USA, I am not surprised that homosexuals were being persecuted. I wish these campaigners would focus their energies on changing the present and the future, if you erase the past we are doomed to repeat it.
I fully agree. The depressing thing is that the story isn’t in the least bit surprising.
Colston statue?
Yes you’re right, let’s drag that filthy telescope back from space and dump it in Bristol harbour. Doesn’t change the past, we have to own our history not expunge it.
My point is what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, homophobia and racism are forms of discrimination and they shouldn’t be tiered (they are by the left wing by and large for various cultural, religious and social reasons).
