@eco-g@stroud.social It’s a very weird situation where a political party can’t require that members actually agree with its own politics.
Why would they be a member of a party that supports trans rights if they can’t agree with that?
I wanted to make an analogy with a socialist party allowing members who oppose socialism and I suppose what you get then is New Labour.
(Also worth noting that EHRC guidance is an interpretation of the law, not the law itself, and also that EHRC itself appears to be a transphobic organisation whose advice on this subject is suspect.)

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io @eco-g@stroud.social If a party requires members to agree with its policies, those policies can never change. Imagine if this had been the case 100 years ago.
