With the recent conclusion of the “Giggle versus Tickle” case, it has become very obvious that something is very wrong in Australia.
The act was changed in 2013 by Julia Gillard’s then Attorney General, Mark Dreyfus, at the behest of the same-s*x marriage lobby, to include gender identity as a protected characteristic.
This change has had negative consequences for mostly women so far.
We have now witnessed incursion of males into female sports, s*x segregated toilets being changed to gender neutral ones, and often violent male s*x offenders being housed in female prisons. It has also watered down protections for same s*x attracted people, as le***an women only events, are no longer allowed.
In the case of Giggles versus Tickle, Sall Grover has been found guilty by the Federal Court, for excluding a biological male from her women only app.
This landmark ruling has shown the implications of the 2013 changes made under the watch of Julia Gilard, Australia’s first woman Prime Minister.
Exposing women to yet another vulnerability, at the hands of lobbyist groups, we now face a new era if not addressed and corrected.
People First Party stand with Australian women across the country to uphold their safety and will work to reinstate women’s s*x-based rights.
Further consequence of the validation of gender identity in Australian legislation, has led to ideological capture of public institutions. Obvious examples include the ABC, AHPRA, the Australian Federal Police, libraries, e-safety commissioner, the Australian Human Rights Council, our healthcare system, and our educational system. All of these are meant to be politically neutral, but this is not the case anymore. Pride symbols and pronouns in email signatures have become the norm.
Lobbyist organizations such as ACON, one of the main lobbyist groups, provides corporate training on Pride and LGBTIQA+ related issues. The work of such lobbyist groups now translates into men, who identify as women be allowed to use female facilities and “correct” pronoun usage.
This is why People First Party will seek to reverse the 2013 amendment to the S*x Discrimination Act and protect women’s s*x-based rights.
Policy from People First Party will also place a ban on all paid political lobbying, to ensure the Australian people are heard and served. Not just those with special identities.
