Pat McFadden disagrees with Canterbury MP’s ‘transphobic’ views but condemns abuse
A senior Labour MP said he was “appalled” to discover his colleague Rosie Duffield felt unable to attend the party’s annual conference after she was made to feel unwelcome because of her views on trans women.
Duffield, who received threats and was branded transphobic after liking a tweet saying women were people with a cervix, has confirmed she won’t be attending the conference because of the controversy generated by her remarks.
