Exclusionary women's event in Leeds supported by the Council and Mayor
Potential trigger - TERFs in action....
There's an event organised by the Leeds Women's Centre tomorrow that's advertised as "single sex, for biological women only"
The council and West Yorkshire combined authority (basically the mayor's office) have their support and logos proudly placed at the bottom of the flyers.
This is pretty appalling and, as such, I've written a complaint to the council, the mayors office and to WYCA.
It seems that in an attempt at "compromise" there are also some events that are listed as "inclusive" but of course it's not OK for the council or mayor to be condoning this sort of segregation. After all, the "inclusive" events allow cis women so the support available to teams women is halved. All with the council and mayors backing and funding.
