Absolute incoherence from Ed Davey:

The way he keeps pointing out “This is the law… until it’s changed” tells us where he stands

Exactly

"The Supreme Court created something we didn't expect" 🤦‍♂️ No. Parliament, of which you were a member at the time in 2010, created the Equality Act @EdwardJDavey - if the law wasn't worded as you wished, it was literally your job to amend it.

@EdwardJDavey Presumably @EdwardJDavey voted in favour of the Equality Act back in 2010?

@EdwardJDavey There was no final vote on it - it went through in the wash up period at the end of Gordon Brown’s Prime Minstership; he could however objected (but didn’t).

@EdwardJDavey Presumably - given his personal circumstances - he fully supports disabled people having a protected characteristic under the EqA. Why won’t he support women (and men) having the protected characteristic of sex?

Davy was the man who shafted the Post Masters whilst taking £300000 from the company prosecuting them. He is a devious animal, never to be trusted. Why would any woman belong to Lib Dems?

It's clear he wants men in women's single sex spaces and services.

How is it not clear enough? People come in 2 sexes, and every single one of them knows which they are, no matter how much they may pretend otherwise. Businesses etc simply cannot be allowed to keep pretending they don’t know how to deal with the men who refuse to comply.

It is not incoherence it is double think. Accepting the Supreme Court ruling that sex means biological sex therefore single sex spaces and services are defined by biological then allowing men in dresses into tge ladies, trans identifying women into the gents. Orwellian

"The Supreme Court created something that we didn't expect" says Ed Davey. 1. The Supreme Court didn't "create" anything 2. The Supreme Court UPHELD & CLARIFIED the existing law 3. Of course he didn't expect it, he, like the rest of his party, together with the Greens & rabid lefties, thought the erosion of women's rights was a done deal.

"The Supreme Court created something we didn't expect" But we totally accept it whilst agreeing to a policy at conference to reject it. FibDems by name and nature.

I wonder what "businesses" he's been speaking to?

Total gibberish

@roseveniceallan What does @EdwardJDavey mean when he says “Supreme Court created something we didn’t expect” ? It didn’t “create” anything. It merely clarified that for the purposes of the EA sex is (and always was) biological. Very telling how he keeps saying “until law is changed” #libdems

He's a ridiculous, caricature pantomime LibDumbo - perfectly suited to the #MensTransParty (formerly the #LibDems )

It's perfectly clear, it just doesn't say what he wants it to say.

At this stage I think he's deliberately Pretending To Not Understand that the guidance is ofc there to help service providers *comply* with the law Because if he admitted that- IE the guidance isn't 'wrong' or 'problematic' - ofc his activists go crazy, call for his head etc

‘Really important that […]listeners understand this’ - [but obviously you don’t Justin, is the implication]… Davey you outrageous, dissembling - and that’s being generous - ingratiating toad!

Oh @EdwardJDavey, you foolish, foolish man. @LibDems - for crying out loud, get real.

The willingness of much of the political class to so utterly buffoon themselves over this issue is really quite astonishing.

@RonniNicole1 Until it’s changed? No women want it changed

@roseveniceallan Circumventor Ed

Gibberish from Ed.
