Hes a bloody man and always will be. This teeny weeny group of fools should be ignored .
It would be great if he got selected as they tore down some barriers and then created others to suit themselves. Izzard is just exposing their hypocrisy.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
*VERY TRUE*
But it's by ignoring them that gives them the illusion of power. They should all have been slapped down years ago.
The world has gone truly mad with all this Woke crap.
It's ONLY in the West, mainly The UK and the US. The rest of the world still has a grip on reality.
I couldn't agree more. Obsession with so called diversity and inclusion. When its much better to pick candidates on actual competency for a possition if we want systems to fuction and thrive.
He's a bloody MAN for goodness sake. This is so insulting to woman, I get so offended with this crap.
Well said!!
Sorry but in my opinion if you have dick your not a chick.excuse my language
Nicola, Here, here we'll said !
It's also insulting to men...
If he identified as a dog,would they let him in Crufts?
why are you calling him she? he is a transvestite not transsexual, also why are they having a women's only shortlist is another question.
Hear, hear.
Labour is a woke joke now.
Leftism is a mental illness
Women only shortlists are illegal I think under the Sex Discrimination Act 1975.
@@sugarbertie1143 only when it’s a white make shortlist nowadays, despite us being the most competent demographic by far over millennia
We need to stop defining ourselves within trans parameters.
Eddie is a bloke.. as far as I’m concerned I couldn’t give a shite if he wants to identify as a Ford Focus that’s up to him.. The fact remains he is a bloke.. it’s very simple
Identify as a Ford Focus 😂😂😂😂😂
Why would he not identify as a jag f type? Much better Motor
@@GolfingInParadise783 because he’s a basic butch!
@@GolfingInParadise783 Fords are pretty awful
Do you identify as a tw*t?
Eddie Izzard is a MAN.. always has been , always will.. now I am open to his description as a comedian...
couldnt agree more. He is a prat - that I AM sure of!
Read my comment
well said
He’s male…not a man, he’s a bell end
Doing 27 marathons in 27 days was insanely impressive though.
THIS IS PURE INSANITY
Absolutely
You know why don't you? They closed all the asylums.
This is just as insane as saying 2+2 does not equal 4.
They tried that also 😂 x
You mean it's not 6 ?
She would say 2+2=4 is just a concept, she is part of the new world order brigade, where all governments want humans too be both male and female because it's more convenient, just like putting Amazon and EE into one, which is why are being forced to love and like transgender
Very Orwellian
It's the very basis of human life and biology, so it's actually more Orwellian than anything else could possibly be.
Biology is NOT a concept! Biology is FACT! Concept is a thought, or idea!
Shes part of the new world order squad, if they say 5 + 5 = 11 and we disagree we get thrown in jail
Anyone who thinks otherwise should try getting away with saying so to Mrs Steele, class 5G biology 1978.
I agree, but YOU try telling these zealots. Apparently, women can have penises, men can give birth and there are also half a dozen and counting different sexes. All these people think that their ‘feelings’ overcome ‘facts’ hopefully, none of them will breed. 😊
I'll say it.
Eddie Izzard is a MAN!!!
YAY!!!! Of course he is 👏👏👏
He is not a woman and never will be.
If you could stop talking over each other that would be a great help.
He is Male, and always will be.
Yep..male AND a massive bellend, but not a man
He is a male lesbian.
@@tamaszlav That made me laugh!! Thank you 😂
It's amazing how the actual woman on the panel is getting tongue tied about what a woman is (Eddie Izard is NOT). All while the man spoke with clarity and common sense. The world has truly gone mad.
@April
Because she's a coward, to frightened of getting a few dislikes on Twatter, Eddie Izzard isn't a biological female, even if he had gender surgery he still wouldn't be a biological female, but as he hasn't had any surgery he's technically a male wearing female clothing.
Because they are confused lots
It's because they are cowards! He's a man, not a 'she'!
@@rekerekeevuleocha548 he is a man
@@ae-ribae6426 He is a TIM.
Why is there even an all female shortlist, surely MPs should be judged purely on merit? When are we going to stop judging people based on characteristics they have no control over?
Apparently ticking boxes is the new merit.
Exactly nothing makes any sense anymore
EXACTLY Marc, why all female ? when if it's on merit, then a bloke in a dress making a point,is just hypocritical anyway !
@@elyrexo Boris Johnson is rather funny when he wants to be.
@@elyrexo The difference is that Mr Bean would do a better job than any current MP.
It’s a fecking bloke ffs,the world really as gone mad
hes just looking for attention
And the sympathy vote.
Bingo
We will have no more of this silliness when immigration takes over this country, they hate all of this....
Labour in power would waste much time and billions on these woke considerations. Every department and institution would be infected by it.
They already are. The civil service, the police, the schools… all hard left
@@mogznwaz don't forget the NHS, teeming with labour activists.
I remember Eddie Izzard referring to himself as ‘a bloke in a dress’ what has changed is the word ‘bloke’ no longer acceptable.
Should he be allowed to stand in all-female MP shortlist?
Yes, of course he should.
Because it exposes the ridiculousness of all-anything shortlists.
Most of us simply want the best man/woman for the job.
And most of us would also see that a person with obvious mental health problems probably isn't the best choice.
No I disagree. Anyone that think they can change gender at will isn't fit for any job as a servant of the public.
Spot on 👍
I'm waiting for an all "Gobby fat bstd" list so I can have a go.
black music awards, black police federation, black lawyers association...all needs to go
No he’s a man
The world has gone bonkers.
He still pisses standing up.
Unsure…he defo pisses his bed though
Daniel… thank God you spoke truth and integrity otherwise we would have to listen to these loud mouthed loonies….😢
That woman is deluded.
@@sumary7663 I’m not a body language specialist but….
I see her expressions indicate she clearly doesn’t believe what is coming out of her mouth.
@@Dokus360 I thought the same 😂
He's a transvestite. He's not a woman.
And seemingly also a nutter.
He's a man that wears women's clothes.
Just when you think Liebour couldn't get anymore ludicrous, there shouldn't be a all female shortlist in the first place and now they can't even get that right.
For me things like this is like a stab in the back that's why I will not vote Labour.
@@vincentblack7467 They have just gone worse since they elected Corbyn as leader, they have become a joke party.
The man spoke sense and truth 👏🏽👏🏽
As for the women she went round and round in circles with her clumsy argument.
A few years ago I saw Eddie Izzard swishing a long at Victoria station in a mini skint, high heel boots and a biker jacket…it was clear to anyone with a brain Eddie Izzard is a strapping man … end of!
What a stupid question. He is a MAN!!
that woman does not get to give away the rights and saftey from men that I fought for all my life. Her brains have fallen out
She drives me mad, so condescending about all topics. Thinks too highly of herself and is very rude.
That ridiculous anthropologist actually said that biology is a concept!
Truly scary
What do they teach in advanced anthropology these days?
From her statement it seems either nothing, she wasn’t paying attention in class or…..
She’s taking this position because it’s about the only way she get mass attention and on tv.
@@Dokus360 she's a lefty shill. She doesn't believe a word of what she is saying. She just doesn't want to be cancelled.
@@Dokus360 the latter
They used to be able to tell whether the bones of a skeleton were male or female. Are they now going to be too scared to say what sex a skeleton is in case of 'offending' somebody.
Am an American who follows some things British and simply happened upon this conversation. ABSOLUTE MADNESS. Clearly both our nations are in serious trouble.
The Italians have seen the light and opted out.
I’m English and I too think our country is going mad. Women can now have a penis and men can give birth!? There are now half a dozen different sexes and ‘feelings’ now trump facts. Time to get the dinghy out I think.
I am old enough to remember ' The Naked Civil Servant ' on the first showing on the telly in 75ish starring John Hurt as Quentin Crisp. My working class family cheered him on but these times are getting more Pol Pot than liberal times in the past
We are living in a minocracy when minorities have the upper hand against the majority - demos the people, the vox populi has been inverted as the oppressor. When the minorities talk about ' equal rights ' they really mean complete control over the majority and will never be happy until they completely subjugate ( even then they will not be happy, they'll go into internecine mode like ouroboros devouring its own tail )
I am in total agreement with you
@@dodgynumber7533 My old man was born in 1920 and spent his life in the Merchant navy including the convoys during WW2 sleeping with a life jacket on waiting for Davy Jones' locker. often spoke how much fun the gay stewards were on the ships and brightened every up and they they were good ship mates. Seems like some want some division.
Yeah, I remember that. I’m 63 now.
@@mehcol In general Northern working class areas were more accepting of gay people. There was a programme on TV for, I think it was the 30th anniversary of the 1967 partial decriminalisation of male homosexuality.
I've never forgotten that one of the participants was an ex-miner who had been outed at work. The other miners had made it clear they didn't care about his sexuality. One morning they were on the colliery bus going to work when the change to the law was announced and the whole bus cheered.
Just to point out, this was before the "...and everybody clapped" nonsense stories in social media.
The world has truly gone mad and I find it even more madness that women stick up for these blokes that say they are woman it’s crazy
"In the end, the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it. Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence of external reality, was tacitly denied by their philosophy."
Orwell, 1984 (1949)
Now waiting for a man identifying as a dog to win the obedience trials at Crufts
There's been a student who identify as a cat with litter box. So it's getting closer
@@brianlaudrupchannel That litter box student should be taken to the vets and put to sleep.
😂😂😂
@@brianlaudrupchannel 😮😂😂😂
I for one reject their ideology. That's all you have to do. Simply reject it internally.
I can’t believe there even having a debate over this. 😂
This is just the beginning
Can wait for the end 🤣
@@leighdraper5187 it ends with them being smited by the hand of God.
The man on this panel truly understands how real women think about this issue. The woman doesn’t understand or chooses not to because she’s deeply woke and totally insincere.
And scared of being cancelled.
I'd like to see Eddy in ' girl mode ' in Yemen doing his charity work - those sand dunes need suitable footwear than high heels
He'd better stay clear of Palestine though (a place the left seem to love so much) as he'd be thrown off of the first rooftop there.
What happened to "majority" rule? Mary-Sue and her kind will not be remembered fondly.
This is madness.
Lol, "politics is dominated by middle aged white men", I'll think you'll find love, that's exactly what Eddie is!!!
Eddie izzard looks like Denice Welsh from loose woman lol
True
..not as masculine-looking as Dennis ....!!!!
Monty Pythons life of Brian springs to mind and the Judaen Peoples Front.
Classic!
Splitter!
@@captainflipflop8805 😂
I’m voting for the People’s front of Judea..
hahaha yes!
The problem with these discussions is that wokes are too arrogant, rude, condesending and ignorant to actually discuss anything. The woke woman tried to shut down the male guest many times, refusing to let him even speak. I found her gross and pathetic. Wokes are.
Izzard the first woman Labour leader 😉
Yet another reason not to vote Labour! Absolute madness.
There should be no such thing as "all women shortlists".
Pig and Lipstick comes to mind everytime I see jizzard !!
Comedian?
Your comment was 100 times funnier than anything that vile man has ever come out with.
What a repulsive individual. Its people like him that have totally screwed up some of our youngsters
No plain and simple, Eddie is a bloke not a women.
Absolutely NOT
The ONLY shortlist required is one of MERITOCRACY. Any other “list” is asinine.
If Eddie Izzard wins I am going to identify as Eddie Izzard and take up the position.
Does throwing in the words inclusivity, tolerance, exclusion, white middle aged men, victimhood and hot potatoes into a bowl and tossing it about with a complex word salad make an intellectual meal for those at a dinner party in islington? By the way I lived there in the 80s and seen the gobbledegook going even more extreme.
God no no
This is the only way he can get noticed these days .
As with Lineker & Carol Vorderman ,career going South ,Agent not getting them the work , start gobbing - off about people in our government and our Country ?. Oh ! and perhaps a little surgery or Botox .
Eddie Izzard actually regularly called himself 'a bloke in a dress'. He's now become a hypocritical bloke in a dress. World's gone mad.
While we're wittering about this, there's a trial of a certain West Yorkshire police officer accused of certain things taking place in secret...
And it’s likely secret as a judge has deemed that this course of action ie secret is ‘in the Public Interest’. Only a Judge decides that 🙄
'sir jimmy starmer' ..?
@@bryan7938 Everything to do with the upholding and dispensing of justice should be in the public domain.
Indeed, all is distraction.
Well if Eddy Izzard wins he will be a true MP 'cross bencher'
😂
I think Eddie Izzard identifies as an attention seeker.
I hope he does and I hope he wins. Not because I think it’s a good thing but because Clown Planet needs to be shown more widely.
It's interesting how someone wants to change their gender whenever it suites them. I watched Eddie Izzard in both a film and a series last year and he played a man. So does this mean he won't be able to audition for male roles or can he change his mind again when it suites him
Like all these wokester’s, he will decide what sex he is based on his ‘feelings’
The fact that you're struggling just shows the illogic of this fantasy you're engaging with.
This in my opinion will stop a lot of people voting for Labour in Sheffield.
Don't be so sure. Sheffield is the woke capital of the North, they'd vote a donkey in there if one was standing for election. The universities and the Council are as far left as you can get.
I totally agree 👍 this is like getting stabbed in the back by labour.
Most people I know here in Sheffield are not going to vote anyway - the system had a smell when Blunkett was our M.P. and now he"s retired to the Duke of Devonshires estate - it still stinks . The voter percentage that votes this year is likely to be under 50 in a city over half a million . .
Not a woman or a comedian. Aside from that, perfect description.
I absolutely despise all these woke “quotas”. If women want to be mechanics, they can. If men want to be nurses, they can. Stop forcing the bloody issue. Focus on things that actually matter!
bloody disgusting
Are his credentials for being a potentially responsible and wise member of parliament that he can tell jokes to drunken woke idiots, or that he wears a frock? Neither seem remotely promising to me.
Answer......NO!
I have two DAUGHTERS, yes DAUGHTERS in high school & I’m really interested in how the school will tackle ‘human biology’
I'm white, heterosexual, from a wealthy country and I'm middle class, I was "assigned" as a male at birth, both my parents are still married and I come from a somewhat idyllic family background... how can I possibly make myself out to be a "victim"?
I know, I'll pretend I'm a woman...
Grow up 🤦.
The lengths some go to for being relevant.
I was misgendered other day wanted to go for a sauna and they said ladies only. I'm still angry as I hadn't decided what I was that day yet ..male ,female ,both or a microwave .
He. End of.
Common courtesy doesn’t apply when discussing gender and/or pronouns it would seem. How much simpler it would be if, when debating, the individual trying to put forward a view was allowed to finish.
NO is the answer to that question. He is not and never will be a woman no matter how
many coats of lippy he puts on.
Kellie-Jay Keen Minshull will stand against him and defend the rights of women and children.
Standing for Women is an excellent organisation headed up by Kellie-Jay.
We need everyone to stand up NOW!
I stand with JK Rowling.
Of course not its just another ridiculous gimmick . He could argue that he is a man that wants to stop discrimination against males
which defeats the object of trying to get more woman in parliament .This 'woke' joke would be funny if it was not getting out of hand.
check the DNA if male it is male. end of argument and these women even discussing this is insane.
He is not a woman end off ,the world would be a place without this bullshit
The party is the only labour Eddie will ever enter
My understanding was that the word "Gender" started being used so that persons of a delicate sensibility (prudes) wouldn't have an attack of the vapours upon seeing the word "Sex".
Eddie was far more interesting before he jumped on the T bandwagon tbh.
Equal dress rights for men was once his thing. Absolutely, why not?
and funnier
I just checked my Oxford English Dictionaries from the 1950s & 60s and, as the male speaker rightly said, ‘gender’ referred only to a grammatical classification of words.
He will be at home with the other freaks
"Women in Labour" love the pun by the way 🤣 (intentional?)
Obviously, a man should not be permitted to stand in an all-female shortlist. It is another question as to why there is an all-female shortlist at all.
What one should ask is what is the point of having all women short lists ? What is their purpose ? If it is to get more women into Parliament because they are underrepresented then it insane to allow Eddie Izzard, a male with the life of experience of being a man onto this short list .
hahahahaha - No, the question is: is he a woman? To which the answer is : no. I am not a zebra, and the moon is not made of green cheese.
Izard is just a freak
Isn't saying "I identify as..." the same as saying "I pretend that I am..." ?
We will have no more of this silliness when the immigrants take over this country, they hate all of this.
True! Good point.😅
Eddie Izzard - You go girl.... Can't wait for you to become a parent you are a shoe in for "Mother Of The year"..... Don't you just love life in Bizarro world?
The woman with dark hair is trying to validate her field of study and pit sociological theory with biological fact which is nonsense
She needs to be taught about John money the woke don't want us to know.
No he should not…. He is a man and a transvestite, and this has got out of hand 😢😢😢😢 our poor children
The bigger question is why are there all female shortlists. When you start discriminating like this, you lose any argument.
NO
I cant believe people are having debates about whether or not Eddie is a woman? Hes a bloke..
So we can't call a man a man if he doesn't want to be called 'a man', (by his choice) because he will be offended .What about the rest of us trying to live life in a normal world who don't want play along with this insane view of these people...some may want to go along with it , crack on if they do but to be labelled offensive if we don't is bollocks ...the world is going tits up big time if we keep yielding to this madness
I feel my mental health suffering just hearing this BS.
He is a clown.
