Helen from Mermaids has started a Twitter thread smearing Kiri Tunks, Anne Ruzylo and Woman's Place UK

Surely this is against the law? It's just a pack of lies!

She has totally misquoted Anne Ruzylo. She was talking about TRAs not trans women. There is a difference!

I know - it's patently obvious that the first part of the sentence is missing but that doesn't fit Helen's agenda that we're all toxic transphobes

Can anyone with twitter take screen shots of the actual full quotes and plop them on that thread?
Along with the petition link

Which thread? I've got screenshots :)

Oh I see = her thread. I'm blocked so I can't

Well I’ll be interested to see if the police go knocking on their door and treat it as a ‘test case’ or maybe they won’t touch it because it’s the minority of choice at the moment

Dear Lord. This spitting fury just makes her look more and more unhinged.

That thread is... troubling. If she was a friend, I’d kindly suggest she’s “running a bit hot” and needs to step back from social media for a while. Some of it is also out and out misrepresentation. I hope she has some kind friends in real life who are standing by to provide support. That level of intensity takes its toll.

This is a textbook example of the hate that women get whenever they achieve a position of power and responsibility.

Shame this person doesn't spend more time campaigning against the torrent of sexual harassment that girls and women teachers are currently receiving. Next they'll be suggesting that girls have no right to undress without the male gaze or to use the toilets in privacy ..... oh wait..........

And some idiot in the comments is saying that the NUT is "anti science" because they have elected a gender critical person.

Gosh she is spitting feathers!

I love Kiri Tunks. Shes my teacher inspiration. Can't quite bear to read the thread as I know it will ruin my day

I saw this from the Kiri thread.

She hasn't got a clue about teachers's child protection duties or their duty of care, has she.

If ever there was an example of loosely cherry picked and re interpreted propaganda anywhere, this is it.

Luckily most teachers are very intelligent and adept at critical thinking, if not actually scientists and biologists, hence why Kiri was elected.

Can’t read it as I’m blocked. Probably good for my blood pressure.

Crikey, what an illogical and hysterical rant from Helen. How embarrassing for her.

I feel a bit bad for Helen. She seems desperately unhappy and insecure.

Scared that some safeguarding might be brought in, more like.

Is she going to try to get them all arrested for stating uncomfortable truths, then?

Can't shut us all up, Helen. Truth will out.

Well, quite. And this is in response to what really amounts to a very small amount of successful pushback - feminist voices getting a marginal hearing instead of none; Swim England retracting some guidelines but nothing pro-woman replaced as yet, etc.

Once women really get going and achieve a few more victories? Well, imagine Helen et al then. It's going to be a sight to behold. And all the disorder, so carefully hidden for years, will be out in the open. None of them will be able to help themselves.

You can be malicious and vulnerable. And really, that's the problem with many TRAs, isn't it?

I lost all sympathy with Helen when one of her sock puppets was outed trying to gain the trust of 4th Wave Now parents for whatever nefarious purposes.

I have followed Helen from Mermaid's tweets and replies for some time. They are incredibly concerning... I'm not sure of her role in the charity. I believe there are incredibly serious questions to ask of the charity in the light of her postings.
Someone needs to look at the whole of her twitter feed and consider the impact that it will have had on vulnerable young people and their concerned parents.
