      What is a transgender ideology? I had no idea transgender was a political position.

      I wonder if this means police officers or any government-backed organistions are not allowed to march for any trade union-related causes? Trade unionism is much more political that whatever “transgender ideology” means anyway.

      Except the progress pride flag is not just about transgender inclusion, it’s also about the folk represented by the black and brown colours, to wonder is the high court judge aware of this.

      Love how they made sure to get this out a few days before the next pride march.

      It’s insane to me that being pro-trans people is breaching impartiality.

      You wouldn’t say the same thing about being pro black people, or people with disabilities.

      So basically, police officers, who have a duty to protect the safety and rights of ALL, are being reprimanded for having a show of solidarity with an extremely minority group in our society. FFS…

      Are you actually serious right now? Expressing support for LGBT people is not an ‘ideology’ WTF

      How is that political in any way or shape? The police shouldn’t be impartial on LGBTQ+, It’s a protected characteristic so they should be showing support.

      Genuinely proud of Northumbria PD for involving themselves with pride.

      Being against biggotry isn’t an “ideaological ” difference in any way that matters. The police’s role is of keepers of peace, and I don’t see how supporting an often targeted minority group goes against their role.
