Reading between the lines I'd say it's to do with trans issues and not LGB
It looks like the BBC are on an impartiality drive; after increasing accusations that it is biased (accusations that come from both the left and the right). They seem to be issuing new 'social media guidance' to help staff avoid "perceptions of bias" in particular through social media (liking, reposting, sharing etc).sorry i dont get it, why are they doing this
Is Benjamin B still identifying as a black man these days? Or has he moved onto Asian, or perhaps Chinese? Wouldn’t believe a word that comes out of that liars mouth.That's precisely what I mean! These people are mind blowingly stupid and once you see it, you can't unsee it
Twitter is ablaze at the moment, Benjamin Butterworthless tweeted this:

BBC staff told attending LGBT pride protests in any capacity can breach new impartiality rules
The BBC has issued new guidance for staff on political impartialityinews.co.uk
ah I see, in a way it's sad that they can't support causes they as individuals stand for, but that seems to be the smart decision to make as a media outlet.It looks like the BBC are on an impartiality drive; after increasing accusations that it is biased (accusations that come from both the left and the right).

The TRA's are up in arms because they see this as an attack on LGBT. Particularly the T. Also as an attack on freedom of speech.
There's no denying that the trans debate has become politically charged and I see this move as the BBC trying to protect itself from a debate that doesn't seem to be going away, particularly on social media.
It seems a shame that staff won't be able to go events like pride because of this - but we don't know the full guidance or if this is really the guidance being given. That might just be Butterworthless (love this by the way!) being hyperbolic as per usual.
The BBC can't seem to win. It should be an impartial news source but neither the left or right think it is.
That's the whitest black man I've ever seen. was one of his parents chalk?Is Benjamin B still identifying as a black man these days? Or has he moved onto Asian, or perhaps Chinese? Wouldn’t believe a word that comes out of that liars mouth.
I'm partial to Butterfingers - he can't hold on to a winning argumentLolling at the notion of Benjamin Butterworth being impartial and unbiased![]()
100% Ive read some horrific fantasies about transwomen wanting to be grape etc. Disgusting.So much this
Every day I just peak a little more because of crap like this.There’s a post on r/unpopularopinions on reddit titled “pregnant people are gross” and the ‘pregnant people’ part angered me more than the post itself. I was tempted to ask exactly how many Male pregnant people this person has come across in their life but honestly can’t be arsed with the drama that would ensue.

I mean, Colonialism wasn't great for gender issues in Australia but not because it erased a third gender. See this report from 2002: https://aifs.gov.au/cfca/publicatio...l-communities/aboriginal-beliefs-about-genderWhat do you all make of this argument?
Bio-holes are we?!I wonder why women are worried about sharing their private spaces with trans identified males.
You can't tell me this type of thing is not down to autogynephilia
