It may surprise you to learn this, but one of the reasons why, insofar as it concerned me, I supported the Labour Deputy Leadership campaign of Richard Burgon was because it was chaired by Laura Pidcock, whom we did not then know to be Thieving Laura.
Pidcock, you see, knows what a woman is, and believes that it matters. That is one of the marks of being on the Provisional, rather than the Official, Left. Others are to be a Left Brexiteer (as Richard is, I'd bet you anything you liked), and to reject the IHRA Definition.
There are more, such as being a Red rather than a Green, and of course all these things are connected. But any one of those three, and you are pretty much one of us. Two, and you need to stop fighting it. All three, and you almost certainly already have.
Yet the Official Left has endorsed Pidcock as a candidate for the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party. Even though she is, as they themselves would put it, a TERF. Good for her, say I. But do they just not know? If not, then they very soon will.
