Is there any chance you could do some actual police work or does virtue signalling take priority?

 

There’s a spectacular bit of virtue signalling been done by the LGBT police association, which doesn’t appear to have gone to plan. They put out a tweet celebrating how trans athletes can compete against women.

This is the Tweet.

The thread below this tweet is interesting to say the least. Apart from a few BLM/SJW types who gave support to the initial post, the vast majority appear to be negative. Many of the negative comments related to how the inclusion of MTF transwomen is to the detriment of genetic female competitors, because of the advantages that MTF’s have from pre-transition testosterone on muscle mass and bone density. This is something that I tend to agree with and why I believe that trans athletes should have their own separate competitive events and not compete against genetic women. All groups should, if they wish, take part in sport, but pitting MTF’s against genetic girls and women nearly always disadvantages the genetic females.

As could be expected from a small group with outsized political and administrative power. The response of the police LGBT group was not to engage in healthy debate, but to issue a veiled threat that the negative comments have been ‘reported’.

Reported to whom is not stated but I would be surprised if one or more Britons got a visit from a very PC Police constable shortly. This sadly sums up just how crap Britain’s police have become. If you make a comment that a transgender with very thin skin objects to then the police will be round at the speed of light, but if you are burgled, have your car broken into or are mugged, the police are too often disinterested in what has happened to you.

I believe that police should be dealing with crime, you know the real crime that plagues communities up and down the land and which bothers everyone and not wasting time and resources on either virtue signalling or threatening critics. I don’t care whether a police officer attending a crime is straight, gay or bi or a crossdresser, just as long as they do the job they are damned well paid to do which is to protect the public. Virtue signalling like this does not protect the public and only increases the number of ordinary people who hold the police in contempt. It’s a waste of police resources.

  1. I believe that police should be dealing with crime, you know the real crime that plagues communities up and down the land and which bothers everyone and not wasting time and resources on either virtue signalling or threatening critics.

    As do I and everyone I know including an MtF

    This repurposing of police forces into social workers and thought crime seekers – which led to the RoP rape gangs – was instigated by Blair and enthusiasticly continued by Brown*, Cameron, May and now Boris

    Until we have a PM with balls and conviction – like Mrs Thatcher – it will become worse

    * Brown and Jacqui Smith sent an order to all Chief Constables to ignore RoP rape gangs

  2. Just gave them a good anonymised kicking on Twitter

      Great! It’s what they deserve. Every time that the police engage in this sort of bollocks it represents a) more people who will in future hold the police in contempt and b) a waste of police resources.

  3. Whatever happened to all the feminist concern over women being oppressed by “the patriarchal society” ? Men oppressing and bullying women seems to be the hot fashion for Leftists these days.

      The genuine feminists have been silenced by the woke cult and any who do speak up are demonised as ‘TERFS’.

  4. I’m beginning to wonder if incidents like these aren’t pro-active fishing exercises.
    There is this, guaranteed to draw negative comments from people who support womens’ rights (and are thus “haters” of trans-sexuals).
    There was the bunch of Police outside Asda claiming “Being offensive is an offence” and engaging in conversations with the Public. Which was a legally inaccurate statement (though I’ll bet they wish it was true) and a breach of COVID restrictions as well.

    This in the last few days.
    Are (elements of) the Police now aiming to entrap members of the Public who are less than 100% on-board the latest bandwagon into committing either a “hate crime” or at least a “non-crime hate incident” in order to silence any dissent about the dismantling of British society?

      You may have a point about this being a fishing expedition but it is also just as likely that this is the police signalling their virtue and adherence to the woke cult.

  5. Ah, well. Much easier to control the tweets than control the streets.
