I have a feeling that’s not what Labour said.

Barnard says in her letter to NEC members that the letter gave her notice that she’s “under investigation for challenging transphobia online.” Again, it seems unlikely that that’s what the letter said.

The trouble is that activists of the Owen Jones/Jess Barnard type treat the word “transphobia” as self-evident and universally understood, when in fact it’s a recently invented pejorative for anyone who doesn’t believe and enforce every article of trans dogma, including the ones that contradict each other.

The Joneses and Barnards can see themselves as “challenging transphobia” when in fact they’re bullying and shaming women for defending women’s rights.

So it would be interesting to know what the investigation really is, but we probably never will.
