      RESIGNATION FROM @LGBTLD. In an ill-thought-through response to criticism that politicians were failing to engage, I inadvertently broke a promise I had made to @LGBTLD. This placed them in a difficult position. As a result I decided it was best for me to resign from @LGBTLD.

      For clarity, in saying @Womans_Place_UK had "genuinely-held concerns" I did not intend to convey that I agreed with those concerns or that they were justified - I have yet to form an opinion. I was trying to say that @Womans_Place_UK have concerns that they believe to be genuine.

      In saying I had talked to @LGBTLD, I did not intend to convey that I was acting with their blessing - on the contrary they had very serious misgivings. It is not true that I have been forced to resign or that I have been fired. It was solely my decision.

      .@LGBTLD have been at the forefront of championing transgender rights. I would never do anything deliberately to undermine their work in this important area. I do not intend to make any further comment about my decision to resign.

          Heartening to read. Women’s Place don’t have any genuine concerns about trans women. They believe that if trans women are allowed in women’s bathrooms, cis men will disguise themselves as trans women and go in. That’s a level of paranoia that would make Donald Trump blush.

          Do you know the difference between “genuinely-held concerns” & “genuine concerns”? They are really concerned, whether justified or not, and that must be addressed.

          There are bigots who are “genuinely concerned” about marriage equality, should they be addressed?

          So the attempt to shut down any debate that says MEN ARE NOT WOMEN continues.

          Maybe some space between you and the LBGT Lib Dems might allow you to see things more clearly. They can be vitriolic at times.

          This reads like a self confession from some Stalinist show trial. Are you really imposing all this double-think on yourself, you poor man.
