....you damn well will have the "correct" view!

But doesn't the law say that one is allowed to hold and express personal opinion (especially when obviously true) without discrimination ? It sounds as if the party is confessing to wrongdoing simply because he was guilty of bringing the party into greater esteem. A terrible crime.

The fascist first amendment OG says that all citizens will have the "correct" view on any given subject. What the correct view is will be reviewed and assigned periodically by the council of Trobiscites.

His crime is to be correct.

// he had broken its code of conduct by voicing views that they claim were against the party's policy on trans rights //

It is fine having personal views, but if you represent an organisation, you must adhere to that organisations agreed policies. Presumably the Greens worked out its position on trans gender and at some point voted to adopt that as a policy for the Party. If an individual finds himself at odds with the party he represents, he should either toe the party line for unity sake, or join another group.
The Conservative Party was a Pro Europe Party but was full of skeptics who caused havoc for 50 years.

The Greens are, by definition, to do with green issues. They should not believe they can be dictating to members on every aspect they decide to add. People have to be allowed personal freedom; otherwise maybe the Greens should relocate to outside the western democracies.

"The Conservative Party was a Pro Europe Party but was full of skeptics who caused havoc for 50 years."

A perfect example of why the Greens need to get their act together and stick to their main principles, not all & sundry. Parties need to accept they are going to be a "broad church".

TBF OG even Labour haven't yet decided whether women can have penises!

'Trans' views have become an obligation. The requirement is not creeping, but bombarding its way into practically every organisation whether 'trans rights' is their purpose or not.

Tell me about it, we get LGBT+ propaganda almost every day! What I struggle with though is why is it relevant to the work place? I mean what people's preferences are is not relevant to our job is it? Back in the day we never had emails and seminars about standard Heterosexual tendencies did we?

Best thing that could have happened to him.
Looks like a sound guy.
