Ash Sakur outright lying about Rosie Duffield now.

[SafeMove]

This is simply not true. Rosie Duffield wants to uphold the Equality Act. Luckily lots of people handing Ash her arse but honestly...if I was Rosie Duffield I would be taking legal advice. This is putting words in her mouth that just are not true. The TRA's are shooting themselves in the foot a lot today.

[Lettera]

Definitely libellous. Also stupid.

I'd do some digging if necessary!

Rosie

[SafeMove]

I don't understand what TRA's are trying to achieve by outright lying and libel? It is awful. I don't know how many followers this woman has but it is so damaging, this is Rosie's job ffs. Not just spouting off on social media.

[KittenKong]

It’s all a performance in 280 characters.

[Passmeamenuatthetottenham]

The thing that makes me laugh about all of these references to the EA is that they all forget that sex is also a protected characteristic.

It says it all really - women.... Who are they then?

[zanahoria]

Some real crazy stuff in the Independent too

www.independent.co.uk/voices/rosie-duffield-labour-transgender-debate-b1923307.html

[Bollockstothat]

Well she lied about herself (used to claim to be a lecturer in political theory until it was repeatedly pointed out that she wasn't) so no surprise she's lying about someone else.

[OvaHere]

It's just projection again. Remember Stonewall did actually lobby to have sex removed as a protected characteristic from the Equality Act.

[FloralBunting]

Ash also thinks that being a lesbian is just a preference that should be politely concealed.
Ash is a nasty piece of work.

[Virginiarivers]

This is the Ash who told Julie Bindel she had done nothing to help women in prison. Julie Bindel, who has devoted years to helping vulnerable women prisoners. Ash is an ignorant, dishonest, spiteful young woman.

[PermanentTemporary]

Agh. That independent piece. The tweet that RD liked was about 'queer people' not 'trans people'. And female single sex spaces aren't 'reserved for cisgender women' - they are for women, including transmen.

I don't really think this is deliberate lying, just absolutely abject standards of reading and writing by someone who's never been effectively edited.

I remember that. Such a bizarrely dense thing to have said. Did she ever make a correction?

[VladmirsPoutine]

The same Ash who also won a libel case against Julie Burchill. I wonder how she manages with all the abuse she gets online, not only a woman but a brown one at that. I certainly couldn't manage it.

[PermanentTemporary]

I don't think she did correct it. I had some respect for the fact that she left the tweet up in fact. I have to say I'm not sure I would ever have tweeted again myself.

[SafeMove]

@VladmirsPoutine you would imagine that someone who experiences severe online abuse would be more careful and considered about fanning flames and signposting further abuse towards a female MP then?

[InspiralCoalescenceRingdown]

@OvaHere

It's just projection again. Remember Stonewall did actually lobby to have sex removed as a protected characteristic from the Equality Act.

Exactly this. Also separately lobbied for removing all exceptions from the act as well.

Pure projection.

[VladmirsPoutine]

Ash isn't fanning the flames towards more abuse at Duffied

[SafeMove]

@VladmirsPoutine what is she doing then? Lying for a laugh?

[Passmeamenuatthetottenham]

@VladmirsPoutine

Of course she is. She knows what it is like to get constant online abuse, but she is still determined to shit stir to ensure that other women with different views to her get attacked as well.

I will always remember when she concluded that Julie Bindel had never done anything for female prisoners because she had typed 'Julie Bindel women prison' into the Twitter search. What a plonker!

What is funny about any of this?

[ArabellaScott]

Vlad thinks its funny that Rosie Duffield gets abuse?

[VladmirsPoutine]

Ash has done a lot more to support the most abused politician of our time than many MPs.

[Passmeamenuatthetottenham]

Ash and Owen, as well as David Paisley, are also saying that Rosie Duffield referred to Kurtis Tripp as 'her friend' when she actually said he was 'someone I know from Twitter'.

Why do they bullshit like this, it's bizarre!

[VladmirsPoutine]

Anyway, carry on

[BoreiPuriHagafen]

Who would that be, then?
