UK Ofcom Says Trans Views Must Still Be Aired Despite Supreme Court Ruling

Labeling Ofcom as “extreme leftist” or accusing it of “pushing the trans agenda” ignores the regulator’s legal obligation to uphold impartiality across contentious issues, including gender identity and climate change.

 

You have this incorrect.  Ofcom considers "climate alarmism" as a settled scientific issue so does not require balance from the broadcasters to provide the opposing view.   They consider whether or not a woman can actually have a penis as a "not settled" issue so require broadcasters to provide an alternative view.   So if someone says "women cannot have a penis" on TV then they have to provide some fantasist on to say that women can indeed, have a penis.   

 

The supreme court settled this.  Ofcom should not encourage law breaking by having people on TV who suggest its fine for men to compete in women's sports or use women's single sex spaces.

All of a sudden you want Ofcom to ban views you don’t like hearing.

 

I knew you would be a fan of Ofcom.

Trans people should have rights, but they should not be referred to as women because they are not women. Perhaps they should be referred to as people who identify as a woman, or people who want to be a woman, or people who are sorry they weren't born as a woman, but they are not biological females, so let's just stop the nonsense already. 

 

They already take up way too much discussion in the public arena, relative to the numbers that they represent, which are probably a tiny fraction of 1%. 

 

PC weakens society. Period. Woke culture is weakness. 

“Perhaps they should be referred to as people who identify as a woman, or people who want to be a woman, or peoplewho are sorry they weren't born as a woman, but they arenot biological females, so let's just stop the nonsense”

 

How about referring to them as nutters.

Trans people exist, they have views, allowing them to express their views is not political, it’s simply not denying them the rights others enjoy.

Not in children’s classrooms.

I’m a Spurs fan, which is quite enough of a burden thank you.

Is this really your best argument against the point that he was making?

 

Essentially...  "You're gay".

 

Is that the best you've got Chomps? 😃

The trannies and gays always refer to straights that disagree with their agenda as

 

”Being in the closet “

 

”Repressed feelings “

 

Tbe list is long.  Their only comeback when they have no legitimate comeback.

This stuff takes resources away from covering actual news that matters to MOST people

Ofcom is simply selecting a jolly handy stick with which to bash GB News.

If true, I suggest you keep quiet about your anti-Israeli stance if you ever attend a game. Keep your Palestinian flag at home. 

 

Spurs have a long standing association with the Jewish community.

Jonny, as a Spurs fan since attending my first Spurs game when I was ten years old.

 

I’m perfectly aware of the history of the Spurs and their connection to London’s Jewish community and have often enjoyed joining other Spurs fans in encouraging the players with our unique fans chant.

 

I don’t have a Palestinian flag, nor do I have an ‘Anti-Israel’ stance.

 

I do cheer my team, but I don’t turn a blind eye to their failings.

Seems you turn a blind eye to their actual results though. I'm sure you're a huge fan though... 😃

A tad hypocritical given your alleged stance in this thread...

Is that you attempting to attribute behavior I had no part in to me, or perhaps some defense of collective punishment?

 

I don’t have an ‘alleged stance’ I post my views for which I am responsible, I’m not responsible for views I have not expressed.

 

I’m sure you can work that out.

Irans flag is now the latest for leftists.

I’ve only ever referred to ‘trans women’ as ‘trans women’ it do wonder why the rightwing are so fixated on ‘trans women’ while almost completely ignoring ‘trans men’.

 

Perhaps they feel personally threatened by ‘trans women’.

 

There is only man and women, not trans men or trans women, why are the left so obsessed with supporting these fantasists?

 Nope, don’t have one of those either.

 

Try not to imagine so much nonsense, unless of course it feeds a need you have.

You said you like singing their "unique chant". That chant is pretty unique in modern football. Perhaps you should be more specific if you don't wish to be misunderstood?

You alledgedly support gay/trans rights. You have proudly made that claim many times. Yet a few days ago you were waxing lyrical about Saudi Arabia and now you're talking about enjoying 'unique' Spurs chants. Makes me wonder is all...

Are you running a stalkers spreadsheet Jonny?

 

Keep in mind you’ve a habit of misrepresenting other posters comments. 

 

I don’t allegedly support trans/gay rights.

 

Saudi is one of the gayest places I’ve ever been.

 

Don’t wonder too much, it’ll make your head ache.

 

Unless of course you feed some need you have by imagining stuff.
