"Jen Izaakson reports from the courtroom, as Tara Wolf is tried for assaulting Maria MacLachlan."
Includes background to the involvement of Class War and Sisters Uncut
concludes:
"Particularly ironic is the fact that Class War are loud critics of what they call “carceral feminism,” a pejorative term used to smear feminists who seek justice through the legal system. Class War criticize women who telephone the police about crimes, including male violence, yet the officers informed us that they had received a phone call from the “other group in court” alerting them of our arrival. Apparently, the Class War activists couldn’t stomach our jubilation and camaraderie, or having to watch women relish a celebratory pint. What they could stomach, however, was throwing their anti-cop politics in the bin, phoning the police over a group consisting mainly of middle-aged lesbians. Some of them even came outside to smile at the police presence barring our crossing the road to the pub.
Later that evening Wolf posted a comment on Facebook saying that MacLachlan was “a man,” so therefore Wolf’s violence was “actually misandry.” Later that night he changed his Facebook name to “Tara The TERF Slayer.”
Women who want to exercise their right to free association, freedom of assembly, and who want to organize as women, should not have to face male violence as MacLauchlan did.
Feminists are indebted to all women who seek to hold violent men accountable and who assert and defend women’s legal rights to freedom and equality and protection from male violence under the law."
