Why has Lily stopped with the kisses? Also, her vocabulary seems to have matured a bit. Is she identifying as a PR person?

DarthArts · 29/01/2018 16:25

Just listened.

Quite a goady start to Linda's introduction tbh.

BBC World at one thread

Radio 4 29/01/18 at 1pm - Martha Kearney on World at Onewww.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3153264-Radio-4-29-01-18-at-1pm-Martha-Kearney-on-World-at-One

BBC The World At One - listen in from 28:43.

I saw this on twitter earlier. If taken on face value it suggests that the Corbyn youth revolution might not be quite so revolutionary. I think they will realise at some point what a mistake it was to lose so many older left wing women.

Indeed. The balance of power lies with 30 - 45 year olds. Particularly women.

I've thought this for some time. Especially since women in my age group are disillusioned and angry at being disregarded.

Presently, I wonder if I will spoil my ballot or vote for someone. I think they should all bother to actually work for my vote. None of them are atm so spoiling my ballot is winning.

I fully expect at the next election for MN to go crazy - when they eventually figure out who the pissed off swing voters are.

Congratulations @MyVisionsDD

MyVisionsComeFromSoup · 29/01/2018 14:16

on a positive note, Lilly peak-transed 15 yo DD last night, that, Marie Dean, and thinking about facing up to some of the rugby lads in her year in a womens rugby game.

But the video shows members added by LM if they had nothing to do with the group then they wouldn't have added people.

AreYouOrHaveYouEverBeenATERF · 29/01/2018 14:15

Yes, according to LM there's literally no difference between LM and a woman who is not fertile/not at the fertile time of the month apparently. Or something. Completely delusional.

FearedAndLoathed · 29/01/2018 14:14

Lily still hasn't responded re sharing a platform with an anti semite. Seems that lily cares for Jewish people as much as she does women.

seafoodeatit · 29/01/2018 14:13

I wouldn't be surprised she was lying again, her accusation at Bellos was disgusting. What a nasty child.

pamish · 29/01/2018 14:12

Lily is still denying having anything to do with the hitlists. And are they surprised to be getting 'irresponsible' media attention if they are always at the front of the queue to speak?

LM is not that familiar with truth and reality

MyVisionsComeFromSoup · 29/01/2018 14:09

Lily says Lily can get pregnant, so I'm not entirely sure how much of what Lily says is based in reality.

OvaHere · 29/01/2018 14:08

I imagine LM identifies as having a GRC. I mean, why not at this point? In terms of untruths claimed it probably doesn't even make their top three

AreYouOrHaveYouEverBeenATERF · 29/01/2018 14:07

I think LM may be telling porkies.... it wouldn't be the first time.

SocksRock · 29/01/2018 14:05

How does LM hold a GRC? At only just 20 how have they been living as a woman for 2 years?

Ohforfoxsakereturns · 29/01/2018 13:59

Parnish LM has publicly said that they hold a GRC. 🤔

Collidascope · 29/01/2018 13:57

Thanks, Ova. That's interesting -and unfortunate for Jeremy Corbyn.

YesItsADebate · 29/01/2018 13:52

Jeremy sets Party policy now, apparently.

Justabunchofcunts · 29/01/2018 13:49

Yes Ova, he would need older women's vote just as much. Older women much more likely to question the motives and workability of a policy that effectively opens the door to women's and girls private and protected spaces to anyone with a penis. Funny that.

Ekphrasis · 29/01/2018 13:45

Tweet bbc? Re world at 1? I'm not on twitter.

nauticant · 29/01/2018 13:44

That's true OvaHere but I think that Labour have bought into the "reality" that the youth vote delivered the result and into the "reality" that self-ID will keep the youth vote on board. Labour are snaring themselves in a trap of truthiness.

TWs are already allowed on shortlists. Discussion should have focused more on the self-ID and we need to keep saying that. NB Lily does not have a GRC so is not 'qualified' to be on AWS.. Not explicit rule re Women's Officer positions which are voluntary. It's clearer with AWS which is a fast-track to a £70k job and so has to be legal.
