On Thursday, 29 September Sheffield Labour Party hosted a fund-raising
event featuring an evening in conversation with Eddie Izzard at Crookes
Social Club in Sheffield. Eddie has recently confirmed a desire to stand as
Labour’s parliamentary candidate in Sheffield Central which will shortly be
vacated by Paul Blomfield who is stepping down. Izzard has not yet been
formally selected by Labour.
As a Sheffield Labour Party member, I am sceptical of Eddie’s proclaimed love
of all things Sheffield, which appears to have come upon him with some
vigour of late as he poses with police or holds forth on issues of Sheffield’s
buses. The buses are a really important issue for Sheffield people, but I don’t
think Eddie has much call to clamber aboard public transport carrying some
of his estimated net wealth of $20 million. I sniff an ego looking for a new
vanity project. Our beloved city of Sheffield is not a “project” for Labour to
hand over to a bored, millionaire bloke in outdated knee-high boots, trying to
reinvent himself as both a woman and an MP.
Eddie fairly recently announced that he is a going to live “in full girl mode”,
whatever that might mean, and wishes to be addressed using “she/her”
pronouns. This came after years of being happy to declare himself a
“transvestite” and challenge gender stereotypes, by wearing dresses and
lipstick. Now he does exactly the same thing, but expects everyone to
believe he is actually a woman.
We had taken seats at the front of a room containing around 300 people,
many of them women. The bar had a long queue and people seemed in good
spirits. As Julie and I became more irritated at the long wait for Izzard’s
appearance on stage, I suddenly spotted a man being ushered through a
curtain at the side, shielded by two women. I realised as he was whisked into
the women’s toilet that it was Eddie Izzard. I told Julie. We both swore
proficiently. It was hard to believe that, in full view of the large audience, a
man would be assisted to the women’s toilet by two other women. These
women were smiling sycophantically and held the door open for him in a
supreme act of betrayal to women of the UK
