Committed environmentalist Emma Bateman explains her battles with her own party over trans and in defence of women’s rights.
I am a natural Green: a committed environmentalist concerned about climate change, and for 15 years I was a Green Party member until I was expelled for saying that men are not women. I wasn’t having that, so I am taking the Party to court, where I am confident I will win.
Prior to 2018, I paid little attention to party policies beyond environmental ones. But then I discovered the party enthusiastically embraced gender ideology. I was shocked. I couldn’t grasp how a party rooted in science and nature could champion the notion that a woman is anyone who identifies as one. I knew voters would not buy it.

Accountability isn’t optional, but whilst the party has members’ money to splash on lawyers, I have only my savings and the generosity of strangers. Please support my crowdfunder if you can, because political parties must be made to accept that they are not above the law.
