Mmm yeah I agree, but honestly I think this is a good outcome. If we had expelled her, we'd catch loads of bile and hatred from online transphobes. I'm not saying that means we shouldn't have done it! Her kicking herself out of our party is (a) dumb of her, (b) good for Labour and (c) good riddance.

That or Reform. 😨 Voteshare-wise, anyway. I'll comfort myself with the fact that Faragist parties have traditionally been crap at local organising and converting voteshare into winnable seats in general elections.
