Did anyone see Julie Bindel on Sky News discussing the Self-ID article in the Fail: dailym.ai/2GE7nYT

Thank you Julie!!!

Noted Steve D's uncomfortable demeanour when you did.

Hooray, too, for the women mentioned in the article.

And boo to the person who says that other people "need to be educated". Nice bit of Maoist thinking, there. Why not just send people off to re-education camps while you're at it?

No, but I want to!

Is there a link up yet?

She's been great with little OJ the last few days.

Also, did anyone see on twitter that Nimko Ali, FGM campaigner for WEP has apparently been accused of transphobia for calling herself a fanny defender? Was only a matter of time. I saw that idiot Toni Harrison starting on her a week ago. (maybe I should start a separate thread).

I'd love a link if there's a catch up somewhere. ...

I think everyone should be leaving comments on the daily mail page (link in OP) there seems to be a lot of confusion.

Very concerning to see the total lack of comprehension in the comments that have so far been posted. Do wonder what moderation is taking place tho' as so far I am unable to get my comment published.

Me too oneday - I commented over 3 hours ago to let one of the commenters know they'd mis-understood - I was clear, and polite, said nothing that could ever be construed as even rude by the most touchy of TRAs... not published...

Anyone would think that the mail might have an agenda too (just not sure what it is)

The Mail has never published any comment I’ve submitted on any trans article (and I’ve tried many times). No gender-critical views get through. It’s almost like the have an agenda of their own.

Yes , something that they have in common with the Guardian.

I couldn't find a link patodp

I am loath to open the DM as it just encourages them, but I think I may have to make an exception in this case.

I’ve tried to post and it hasn’t published.
I first read the article at 6.30 am this morning and it was at 15 comments then. It has not adjusted so it appears no comments are being published

They won’t publish any more comments, I don’t think. I’ve seen this many times with their trans articles. They allow a tiny number of comments and then nothing else gets through.

Mail don’t seem to be publishing comments - either it’s as PP says and no more will be published or no ones working the Sunday shift...

Could someone - @YesItsADebate perhaps? - ask Julie Bibdel to directly tweet the petition link? No one seems to link the petition to the articles which is an issue with visibility.

I am not on Twitter. Can someone ask Julie to tweet the petition?

Julie Bindel was on Sky News commenting on this today. She really got it and explained it beautifully.
