Dr Who - trans ally!

David Tennant famously played the role of Dr Who for several years and enjoyed quite a bit of critical acclaim for his performance in it. David Tennant has also been to the fore in proclaiming that he is an “ally” of the LGBTQ+ movement. This manifested itself recently when he hit out at Minister for Women and Equalities Kemi Badenoch demanding that she "shut up" in a furious rant against her.

The former Doctor Who star, 53, took aim at the Tory General Election candidate, 44, in a speech at the British LGBT Awards. The actor was recognised for being a "celebrity ally" at the awards and as he accepted the acknowledgement, he hit out at Badenoch. Until we wake up and Kemi Badenoch doesn’t exist anymore – 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."

Kemi Badenoch has been critical of the trans movement and I think this is what has triggered Tennant. Most recently, Badenoch has said the Conservatives will change the Equality Act to rewrite the definition of sex and allow organisations to bar transgender women from single-sex spaces, including hospital wards and sports events.

The party will make clear that the protected characteristic of sex means biological sex, enabling those who wish to bar male-bodied people from organisations or activities to do so. Badenoch said it would provide reassurance for services such as those aimed at domestic abuse victims.

Tennant is outraged by this, but WHY would that be? Well, it MIGHT involve his 21 year old adopted son Ty.

Tennant seems very angry on the issue of trans

Is there something he would like to tell us?
