Also, that's the Communist Party of Ireland. 
Isn’t Ukraine’s abortion laws unchanged from Lenin era USSR? I.e. it’s fine
There was that article on Ukrainian refugee women living in Poland going back to Ukraine to get abortions
It's a not uncommon belief here that the USSR was chauvinist, even amongst trans accepting feminists. They are wrong, but it's literally just "USSR bad" levels of knowledge and analysis
"why do these communists keep advocating trans rights I don't get it grumble grumble [deranged terf gibberish]"
irish communists are the coolest people and hopefully they can soon rid their land of the diabolical Br*tish scourge
Lenin on the exemplary action of women in the revolution:
(. . .) It shows the capacity of women, the great value their work has in society. The first proletarian dictatorship is a real pioneer in establishing social equality for women. It is clearing away more prejudices than could volumes of feminist literature. But even with all that we still have no international communist women’s movement, and that we must have. We must start at once to create it. Without that the work of our International and of its Parties is not complete work, can never be complete. But our work for the revolution must be complete. (. . .)

Lenin on the Women’s Question

I'm the second, but in my defence I was traumatised by growing up in England
I think the label "TERF" is misleading in the case of guys like this. not only is he not a feminist, he's not even really pretending to be a feminist. guarantee if you go back 5 years ago you can find tweets from him complaining about feminist SJWs.
Meanwhile Lenin:
"Down with this contemptible fraud! There cannot be, nor is there nor will there ever be “equality” between the oppressed and the oppressors, between the exploited and the exploiters. There cannot be, nor is there nor will there ever be real “freedom” as long as there is no freedom for women from the privileges which the law grants to men, as long as there is no freedom for the workers from the yoke of capital, and no freedom for the toiling peasants from the yoke of the capitalists, landlords and merchants." (from Soviet Power and the Status of Women, read it ya lib)
I made that sigh in line with our political resolution on LGBT issues. I wanted to show in the loudest way possible that communistst stand with LGBTQ+ people, the fact that it manages to get under the skin of both the far right and reactionaries who then spread our massage for us is a nice bonus. With this particular protest the call was to be as fas on the opposite end of the political spectruf as possible compared to TERFs and Nazi's.

Amazing work, comrade.
