Kemi Badenoch Brands David Tennant “Rich, Lefty, White Male Celebrity” in Trans Row

Kemi Badenoch has branded David Tennant a “rich, Lefty, white male celebrity” after he said he wished she “did not exist any more” because of her views on women’s rights. The Telegraph has the story.

The Doctor Who actor said he wanted the Equalities Minister to “shut up” as he collected an accolade for being a “celebrity ally” at the British LGBT Awards.

He was honoured at the awards for his support for the trans community.

But Mrs Badenoch, who has said she wants to ban trans women from women’s toilets and sports teams in order to protect females, accused him of being a “rich, Lefty, white male celebrity” who attacked her even though she was the only black woman in Government.

She wrote on X, formerly Twitter: “I will not shut up. I will not be silenced by men who prioritise applause from Stonewall over the safety of women and girls.

“A rich, Lefty, white male celebrity so blinded by ideology he can’t see the optics of attacking the only black woman in government by calling publicly for my existence to end.

“Tennant is one of Labour’s celebrity supporters. This is an early example of what life will be like if they win.”

The actor played the 10th Doctor between 2005 and 2010, returning last year to play the 14th Doctor. He has also appeared in series such as Broadchurch, Blackpool and Casanova.

He said in his acceptance speech: “If I’m honest I’m a little depressed by the fact that acknowledging that everyone has the right to be who they want to be and live their life how they want to live it as long as they’re not hurting anyone else should merit any kind of special award or special mention because it’s common sense, isn’t it?

“It is human decency. We shouldn’t live in a world where that is worth remarking on.

“However, until we wake up and Kemi Badenoch doesn’t exist any more – I don’t wish ill of her, I just wish her to shut up – whilst we do live in this world, I am honoured to receive this.

Oh no! 😵 Should this article not come with a trigger warning for the resident Misogynist Society? What an inconvenient truth for them, what with Neil being a penis-owner and everything.
What to do? How to spin it? The cognitive dissonance involved in this one, eh?🤔🤯

“The young middle-class female has always been driven by causes…They might have got themselves in a tizzy about woke, but the madness has always been there.” NeilParkin ( 24/6/24 ) 🤣
Yep, Tennant is definitely NOT mad and is surely an anomaly, obviously. 🤦‍♀️

When reality holds yet another mirror up to your delusion….keep looking the other way.😆

Come on now chaps, I’m up for achieving a PB for merely speaking truth, no matter the inconvenience. Make it count. 3, 2, 1 Go!👎👎👎👎

Another bloke who wants consigning to the dustbin. Nobody is saying people cannot be who they want to be but some of us including Kemi Badenoch are right to expect normal differentiation between the sexes. Blokes competing against women in female sports is hardly a level playing field.

The problem with slebs is that they equate popularity with intelligence. Here we have David Tennant milking the publicity because he has climbed on the alphabet wagon without understanding that most of us are bloody weary of it. Just like the C1984 when every pop star over 60, and plenty even younger, came out as immuno virologists or pseudo doctors prescribing the jibby jabs. Too bloody thick to understand a word of what they were pushing.

A few short words for Mr, doubtless soon to be ‘Sir’, David Tennant….

Yes what a shame that men like this do in fact exist, right? Because they immediately contradict the women-haters’ delusion that it’s only women that are the culprits.🤭 Male woketards, eh? Who’d have thunk it?😏
They must be ignored at all costs and “her indoors” is most likely to blame. Tennant has evidently been “feminised” by the Feminazis and is surely just a one-off…🤡🙈

Between you, me and the gatepost, nige, I’m running an experiment. I was hoping for more little red thumbs this morning because I’m aiming to beat the time I blasphemed against Jeremy Clarkson, so I’ll give it until this evening then assess my findings to see if my hypothesis has been supported ( I won’t give that away yet but I’m sure you can take a stab ), but so far so predictable. Perhaps I should bad-mouth incel poster boy, Andrew Tate, then that might increase participation…After all, not all rabble-rousers must wear trousers. 😉 One observation which is consistent when I do experiments in this vein is that the little red numbers are significantly disproportionately higher than the responses. I conclude from this that by far and away most responders do not have accounts. This collective are who I refer to as ‘Hamster Dick and the Scroteless Wonders’, or the ‘Shadow-Lurkers’, for obvious reasons. They always shy away from any sort of exchange or debate, so your ”psychological castration” is certainly applicable here. It takes a lot of time ( 3 years in my case ) and a lot of hard graft to accumulate and acquire such a loyal… Read more »

In an environment without dangers and frequently, without anything happening at all save collective intoxication, competitive posing is what human mating ends up being reduced to. Everyone’s an obnoxious loudmouth and the most obnoxious loudest mouthed score. Ours is the anti-eugenic or anti-darwinist society — we breed for the worse of mankind.

Rod Stewart, Elton John, Dave Grohl, Bruce Springsteen, Kaiser Chiefs and plenty of others.

Ian Brown has also been very anti vax and anti Scamdemic. Noel Gallagher apparently told a train guard to F. Off when asked about his lack of face nappy.

Dolly Parton, Mariah Carey, Willie Nelson, Brian Wilson, Andrew Lloyd Weber, Loretta Lynn, Ian Mike, Prue Leith, Joan Collins, David Attenborough, Tom Jones, all supported vaccines and plenty of others. I will leave you to do your own research.

Paul McCartney also recommended that people should get vaccinated but this was at the height of the vaccine propaganda when we were all being lied to by medical authorities, politicians and media, assuring us that the vaccines were “safe and effective” and prevented transmission, so I can forgive Paul McCartney and anyone who was hoodwinked at that time.

“right to be who they want to be without hurting anyone” Yes, the drivel coming from Tennant’s big mouth shows that either he is completely ignorant of all the hurt caused to people victimised by transfascists, or he doesn’t care. Women have been driven out of their careers for defending biological sex, and insulted, harassed, derided, threatened, cancelled, labelled terfs who should be punched in the face. That was OK, was it, TinyBrain Tennant? Not to mention people arrested for some tweet that a transfascist found offensive because it mentioned that there are only two sexes and the idiot forgot he wouldn’t exist without Mum & Dad. Not forgetting the countless men and women up and down this lunatic land unfortunate enough to be employed by wokeist idiots who insisted they display their ‘pronouns’ and be forcibly subjected to bollox ‘training’ propaganda about how women can have bollox too. And especially NEVER forgetting or forgiving the outrageous stupidity of allowing dangerous men who decided they were women last Tuesday week to be admitted to women’s prisons, all the better to intimidate, assault and rape female inmates who deserved to be protected from the kind of violent MEN they had no… Read more »

I think the reason she mentioned that he is a man is that it is men in women’s changing room that causes a problem. Can you honestly say that you feel threatened by trans men coming into men’s spaces? The racial identification, I’m with you and winced at that because it isn’t relevant to this issue.

Here’s a message to you, Mr Tennant: Did it ever occur to you that “I always wanted to be the man in the women’s locker room!”, even without hurting anyone on top of that, is simply not the kind of lifestyle choice society ought to accept, let alone support? Such a guy might not believe that sex is real but he has absolutely no right to force this belief of him onto people who don’t share it. Even if they were completely misguided which is not the case. Eg, no one is ever going to be guy officially selling bacon sandwiches during an Eid ceremony despite bacon sandwiches are certainly no more going to hurt muslims than they’ll hurt other people. And bacon sandwiches are much more distant from what people consider to be the very core of themselves than sexes.

My partner works in a college and while she’s not big on the “gender issue” she likes to “be kind” and doesn’t approve of some of my opinions (namely a bloke in a frock is still a bloke and shouldn’t be in female areas).

We’re currently on holiday in the Shetland islands and while we were in a cafe for dinner she came back from the ladies and said “there’s a man in there” and it made her uncomfortable…

I reminded her she needed to”be kind” and then asked if she understood where I’d been coming from over the years…

Strangely she now gets the point

That’s not so strange. This works a bit like reciting the credo during a church service: Everybody knows the words and the way they’re spoken in and everybody joins in the recitation because everybody does that. Actually meeting a men in the female toilet is a very much different experience than that.

Yes. and the ‘not hurting anyone else’ bit is what exercises the likes of Kemi Badenoch, J. K. Rowling and Posie Parker. Mr Tennant needs to shut up and remember what Ricky Gervais said in 2020

It’s an example of how the Trans cult has so completely infected the celebrity world.

As we know fame is fickle (ask Lawrence Fox) so if you have the wrong opinions your career is gone in a flash.

So combine that with the fact that not all celebrities are particularly clever and we end up with David Tennant.

Maybe he means what he says (thick) or maybe it’s self preservation (coward)?

Probably a bit of both.

Who knows?

White, I agree on the race issue – it’s not relevant but surely his sex is relevant to this discussion since he won’t, I imagine, feel that physically threatened by transmen coming into men’s spaces although I accept that men may not want biological women in their toilets and I support that.

Tennant has a ‘non-binary’ child, Wilfred. His comments in this matter can safely be filed under “well, he would say that, wouldn’t he?” He’s obliged to double down in his support for ‘they/them’ lest he have to consider his role in creating their stat of mind…

Tennant thinks everyone has the right to be who they want to be and should be allowed to live their life how they want to live it as long as they are not hurting anyone else. ——-I TOTALLY AGREE. ——-But you are not going to live your life in my daughters toilet or beat her at swimming, hockey or the 100 metre hurdles. ——That is clearly “hurting” other people and these people are called WOMEN

I understand why we are using the terms ‘biological male / biological female’ but it’s really a bit of a linguistic trap which serves, perversely, to legitimise all this nonsense. To repeat again, a man is male and a woman is female. This is demonstrable biological fact. So, a man dressed as a woman in a female loo or changing room is exactly that – a man in a place reserved for women, however that man perceives or presents himself.
To be pedantic about this, to say ‘biological male’ is tautology.

So the Rich, Closet Lefty, African Nigerian woman Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke, the Globalist Manchurian Mediocrity Candidate desperate to illegally become UK Prime Minister, with no discernible abilities at all…

calls the Rich, Lefty, Indigenous Scottish man David Tennant, world famous for his acting ability and sense of humour, a “Rich, Lefty, White Male Celebrity”.

Why? Because she feels that no Indigenous English, Welsh, Scottish or Northern Irish woman = “white female” is capable of speaking out against the Globalist Sodomite Agenda, so they must all depend upon an African woman to speak for them.

So he was right to tell her to shut up. Indigenous Scottish woman J.K. Rowling has already spoken out bravely and eloquently on this subject.
