Since the Supreme Court ruling that in the Equality Act 2010 "sex” means "biological sex", you may have noticed the same MPs regularly appearing on air to question the decision.
Some of the most prominent critics of the judgment include Carla Denya, co-leader of the Green Party, fellow Green Sian Berry, the Labour Party’s Nadia Whittome, and Clive Lewis, as well as independent ex-Labour MPs Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn.
Although these cross-party MPs appear to be independently operating, they have a history of lobbying for the same groups and causes.
Take, for instance, the Climate and Nature (CAN) Bill, which Denyer co-sponsored, and has had support from Lewis and Whittome:
Denyer and Whittome have also worked with Let’s Go Zero 2030, “the zero carbon in schools campaign”:
And there are various other crossovers, such as various MPs’ involvement with the radical group Compass:
I believe that at least part of the crossover comes down to the MPs’ association with a Left-wing cooperative (a base at which they can coordinate their activism) in Bethnal Green, East London, titled 'Pelican House'.
One big sign of this is that the MPs describe themselves as “champions” for an activist group titled “Green New Deal Rising” (GNDR), whose address is Pelican House.
GNDR isn’t very well known, despite its activists’ best efforts. Last year they stormed up to Chancellor Rachel Reeves over "her refusal to implement a tax on extreme wealth”:
Never mind that it has its own “

Sorry, but I don’t see the issue. These people just have a very different political view from me, and have organised themselves.
And although I personally think they lack logical reasoning capacity, this is only an issue if they get funding from the tax payer.
They, together with their other captured colleagues, are dismantling our country brick by brick. We are fast approaching the point of no return.
The opposite of the truth, which is that the left have organised themselves alarmingly well capturing the dominating heights of media, academe, the arts as well as the civil service despite their demonstrable lack of a single intelligent idea which would benefit the common man.
As somebody on here reminded us recently, socialists do not understand economics, if they did they wouldn’t be socialists.
Will Pelican House become an argument-clinching Address Of Infamy – to match, say, 55 Tufton Street?
I had to look up 55 Tufton Street. Wokepedia duly obliged. They are Literally Hitler! I bet they will never have a page on Pelican House. Maybe the author of the article should create one in the style of the Tufton Street article. All I could find on Wokepedia about 144 Cambridge Heath Road was that it is the HQ of some minor Trade Union which gets grants from the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Voices_of_the_World
Some more information on this: Each German party is associated with a so-called foundation which usually isn’t really a foundation but just a private association (eingetragener Verein). The purpose of these party-foundations is nominally political education of the general populace in line with the political manifesto of the party it’s associated with. This is considered to be a charitable purpose in Germany and – for all parties which are present in the Bundestag (federal parliament) – the money for this comes various federal ministries aka the German taxpayer.
The Rosa Luxemburg foundation belongs to the SED/PDS/Die Linke (see comment above) and if it provides grants to British organisations, that’s really the communist party of Germany aka the former GDR state party channeling money from the German state to British organisations it particularly likes. From a British perspective, that’s a foreign former communist ruling party which nominally adopted a ‘democratic’ manifesto so that it could continue to operate in face of the Fundamental Law of the FRG using money from a foreign country (Germany) to influence British politics and public discourse in a certain way.
IMHO, that’s more than a bit dubious.
Thanks. Election interference! I expect the BBC will be calling this out soon.
If your MP is not Labour you could write to them. Alternatively ask someone with a non-Labour MP to do so. It does seem like an important point.
The address is usually cited by wokerati as a “that’s all you need to know” condemnation, as if its doors were a portal to the inferno.
Ah ok, understood. A bit like dismissing someone as a Trump supporter, or conversely dismissing something Trump has supported.
Its a coalition of every anti british pos you can think of.
The far-left German party Die Linke (literally The Left) is the name the Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS) adopted after being joined by a breakaway far-left faction of the SPD. The PDS, in turn, is what the SED (Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands, Unified Socialist Party of Germany) renamed itself to after a breakway from it led to creation of the SDP (Social-Democratic Party) in the GDR after 9th of November 1989 until the so-called German reunification on 3rd of October 1990, when the SDP joined the SDP.
The SED itself came into being as merger of the SPD and KPD (Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands, Communist Party of Germany) to become the state party of the GDR.
Ironically, the KPD was outlawed in western Germany in the middle of last century and now, it exists again. To give this as some sort of chemcial equations:
SPD – parts of SPD -> USPD (1916ish)
SPD + USPD -> SPD + KPD (Weimar Republic, USPD split into back-to-SPD and KPD)
KPD + SPD -> SED (1949, GDR state party)
SED – SDP -> PDS (1989)
SPD + SDP -> SPD (1990)
PDS + parts of SPD -> Die Linke
Die Linke – parts -> BSW… Read more »
Rosa Luxemburg was a Communist.
Together with Karl Liebknecht, she was one of the prominent members of the German USPD (Unabhängige Sozialdemokratische Parte Deutschlands, independent social-democratic party of Germany) before 1918/19 which nominally broke away from the SPD because the SPD supported the German war effort (to some degree). This is also the party which organized the mutiny in Kiel 1918 which started the Spartakist (named after Spartacus, another name for communist/ bolshevist) uprising in Germany in November 1918 which forced the German army/ OHL to capitulate for want of future supplies.
Yes. When I graduated with honours in German Language and German History a few years ago, this was something I covered. Thanks for reminding me.
Where does their money come from. I guess the UK tax payer, indirectly? Unions?
That’s a key question, and one that would merit deeper investigation. Whether such an investigation is feasible without being on the inside I don’t know. MPs are obliged to say who they get money from, but you’d then need to find out the original source of that money, which may have gone through many layers. The screen shot shows Plantpot Limited as one donor – well they are a private, for-profit, company so that trail ends there, and the UK branch of the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation. The RLF German website makes no mention of where they get their money from, but probably not the UK taxpayer. They are associated with Die Linke in Germany so probably from them – their source of funds is likely on record but probably not the UK taxpayer. But it’s quite possible we’re looking at another USAID situation and sadly there’s no Trump-Musk DOGE team going to follow the money trails and shut it all down. FOI requests might get you some way down the road if they were sufficiently narrowly written not to be rejected as overly broad and therefore too onerous to fulfil. A union member might be able to ask what the… Read more »
As German party, Die Linke gets money from the German tax payer in proportion to the number of votes it got during the last election. It also certainly still has some assets the SED managed to tranfer out of the GDR when morping into the PDS. It’s also pretty certain that they’re “well connected to Russia”, considering that Putin is an ex-KGB guy with imperial ambitions and the party is one the subservient east-European parties of the former KPDSU (German name for Communist Party of the Soviet Union, no idea what the Russian name is/ was).
Thanks for the info
Could have been directly from USAID.
Well researched article. Thanks Charlotte.
Such a concentration of stupidity. Quite handy really.
