UK Anti-trans bigot, Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull, to return to Australia for CPAC Brisbane
Quiet marketing of the event was an attempt to sneak her in, without giving the community opportunity to oppose her visa.
UPDATED — Keelie-Jay Keen is returning to Australia for the conservative conference “CPAC Australia,” which will be hosted in Brisbane from October 5th to 6th.
While there was an attempt at keeping it under wraps, we were able to uncover it and force Keelie-Jay Keen to announce her appearance at CPAC Australia.
Original Article Follows below.
While the promotional material is vague, it alludes to a woman figure who asks the question “What is a woman?”. The only candidates for this would be Matt Walsh and Keelie-Jay Keen, and as Matt Walsh is a man, this likely refers to Keelie-Jay Keen.
This may be an attempt to sneak her in, without giving the community opportunity to oppose her visa on the grounds to causing division amongst the Australian community.
The Immigration Minister and the Department of Home Affairs can refuse a visa to individuals if there is a risk that while they are in Australia, they will vilify a segment of the Australian community or incite discord amongst the community. One can contact the minister to raise an issue via this link or this form.
The previous time Keelie-Jay Keen, who also goes by Posie Parker, was in Australia, her events attracted the support of the National Socialist Network, a neo-nazi group. This group famously raised the Hitler salute, to which no opposition was made by the “Let Women Speak” group at the time. The NSN additionally provided sound equipment for “Women Will Speak” events in Melbourne.
Victoria Police at the time allowed the Nazis to mix with the Let Women Speak group, while preventing the human rights/pro-transgender demonstrators from approaching the area. These actions have been widely criticised by the public.
Keelie-Jay Keen’s event was described as “A nasty, hateful event, long before anyone offered up the Nazi salute”, by then Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews.
There is concern amongst the transgender community that Keelie-Jay Keen may embark on a set of so-called “Let Women Speak” events around the country.
CPAC Australia this year features a who’s-who' of transphobia, including such guests as Sall Grover, founder of the defunct app “Giggle for Girls”, who was found to be discriminating against woman Roxy Tickle on the basis of her gender identity.
Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss will also be making an appearance, notable for her under two-month-long prime ministership and her opposition to transgender legal self-determination in the UK as Equalities Minister.
CPAC Australia is at the Sofitel Brisbane in Meanjin from the 5-6th of October.
I'm heading to Meanjin to protest her visit in person
Great it was so much fun last time she was here. By fun I mean rage inducing with a smattering of cathartic shrieking and profanity
