He posted an image of an anime girl pointing a gun at the reader 😭 I fully agree with the message and find it pretty funny, but at the same time it's pretty obvious why sitting councillors* shouldn't be posting an image like that on their main account
Don't care, if firing a transphobe for expressing a transphobic view violates Equality Act 2010 then firing a pro-trans counsellor for expressing pro-trans views also violates Equality Act 2010. You don't get to have it both ways. I hope he sues your party.
We lost the lawsuit, we had to pay Natalie Bird compensation. It is also fact (it's an absurdity and terrible ruling but is fact) that since Maya Forstater UK courts have said "gender critical" (transphobic) views are legally protected under the EA2010
This isn't the same scenario as it isn't for the view, it's for the inclusion of the gun which I don't think it's shocking
Professional politicians should probably realise posting an image with a gun isn't a good idea on their main account.
I don't disagree with the sentiment at all in his post, but it's also a very stupid thing to include a gun in your post

It is against the councilor code of conduct
