Loose women is usually live now a days.
Public sympthy sadly seems to be with Ched a bit. A lot of people still beleive not guilty means everything the prosecution said in the case is blatantly not true.

Rowan tick, Jean tick. Over 2000 now, but really need it to get higher!

WomanWithAltitude · 18/10/2016 22:12

Yes, all of those would be good.

Carrie Rowan Pelling wrote a good article the other day in the Torygraph, Jean Hatchet started the gofundme, Julie Bindel was very vocal....

Imo her being 'sick' and then CE leaving afterwards without saying a word to her, and her seemingly not questioning him when he had a sudden attack of guilt and stopped having sex with her says to me that she was unconscious/didn't know what was going on throughout the whole debacle.

Even on a one night stand, if the other person stops sex suddenly and starts getting ready to leave, you would ask the person why/what was going on. You wouldn't just shrug,turn over and go to sleep as they walked out of the door. She was totally out of it and unable to consent, no doubt about it in my mind.

Have tweeted Holly and Sophie, any other names and I'll get on it!

Debinaround · 18/10/2016 20:56

That's more like it. Smile I'm not on social media but DH is and he is going to sign and share on Facebook and Twitter.

I'm not on twitter, but I'd tweet it to any journalists who have written supportive articles. e.g Holly Baxter

WomanWithAltitude · 18/10/2016 20:33

Jean Hatchet? She could send it to people who've donated to the gofundme page?

CharlieSierra · 18/10/2016 20:32

Quite a few journalists have written scathing articles and might be receptive to tweeting.

CarrieLouise25 · 18/10/2016 20:27

Who's famous that we could tweet the petition to that would get more coverage?

CharlieSierra · 18/10/2016 20:05

I've seen the petition via my FB feed and it's got 395 signatures last time I looke.

WomanWithAltitude · 18/10/2016 20:05

It's going up now - we just need to share it as widely as possible.

birdsdestiny · 18/10/2016 20:03

Yes some very unexpected allies in this case. Gloria Hunnerford and The Sun.

OlennasWimple · 18/10/2016 19:54

I love Gloria Hunniford

BeyondReasonablyDoubts · 18/10/2016 19:10

I just cannot imagine leaving anyone alone when they were so drunk they were sick. Which clearly she was as he reported it to the receptionist. Who raised these conscienceless pond life to treat another human so badly? Sexual activity aside, is it really so normal to just walk away and leave someone like that when they are ill? Even if they are a complete stranger? I've sat with strange women in nightclubs/outside pub doorways when they've been ill/wasted until their friends came along or staff came to take over. I've missed cabs and buses and got assaulted by a man who clearly saw a victim ready for his attention Hmm that I was getting in the way of.

JenLindleyShitMom · 18/10/2016 18:55

She must have actually vommitted for him to refer to her as sick? Or have looked like she was going to?

merrymouse · 18/10/2016 18:52

Sorry, didn't prove - threw doubt on the argument that she absolutely definitely wasn't a willing participant.
