James is going to be discussing trans issues today on LBC. His show is on now - not sure what time the segment will start, but should be good!

Ofcourse the self ID law is going to be abused.

It is not a matter of if it is when - fuck can someone ring him with some examples.

Big day today and big wins over last couple of days - well done Hannah and Amy

Wtaf - he is saying it is about number for risk.

He really doesn't understand predators and that women are still unsafe.

hilbobaggins · 19/03/2018 11:56

Right so he now seems to be saying that “numbers matter” when it comes to male predators. Apparently one woman being attacked raped or assaulted is not enough. He is an utter twat.

'My problem is I'm just too sensitive and woke'

JAMES never gets run over by anyone. He’s making it out like Hannah is going at him and have a go.

JOB "The problem I've got as a feminist". Hollow laugh.

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 11:55

James, take your daughter into the men's changing room!

HomeTerf · 19/03/2018 11:54

She was MAGNIFICENT

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 11:54

JOBs debating tactic is very interesting. As soon as he smells a potentially weak spot, no matter how irrelevant or unimportant it is to the main debate, he goes for it like a dog with a bone.

womanformallyknownaswoman · 19/03/2018 11:54

Sounds like Hannah did great job up against such a dominator - applause Grin Grin Grin Grin

nemno · 19/03/2018 11:54

Well done Hannah, very well done.

Your attitude when being provoked is admirable.

SpartacusReality · 19/03/2018 11:54

And I have to say why the hell is JOB not taking his daughter into the men's changing rooms. Idiot. If she's young enough to need help changing, she's young enough to go in with him. If she doesn't need help he can wait outside the women's for her.

Gosh that was exciting!

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 11:53

I'm trying to persuade DP to call in......

I think sadly James needs to hear a bloke say "WE RAPE....women have every right to be frightened of us and we should not get personally hurt as men when women tell us that men rape, it's not about us"

I hate that women can't call out male violence incase it hurts the feelings of non rapey men.

womanhuman · 19/03/2018 11:53

Hannah, you were brilliant even after he came back from the break determined to be more like himself ;)

HomeTerf · 19/03/2018 11:52

Having whined about not being able to take his daughters swimming, I wonder how he'd feel about his daughters going swimming on their own/with friends if there was the possibility of men being in their communal changing space.

SpartacusReality · 19/03/2018 11:52

Hannah you were amazing. I don't know how you managed to keep your cool with his idiotic comments and repeated diversions and traps he was setting but you managed to get your point back on track every single time.

rowdywoman1 · 19/03/2018 11:51

Brilliant interview ! Well done Hannah. Clear, thoughtful and sympathetic.
And also good that Barbara, the transgender woman was clear about finding self ID unacceptable.

CecilyNeville · 19/03/2018 11:51

That was amazing! You won. Against the bloke who wields the mute button.

JudIII · 19/03/2018 11:51

I am glued to the radio... Well done Sweary... Hopefully people will have seen through Job's overcomplication of the facts.

Nosetothesun · 19/03/2018 11:51

Fantastic interview SwearyG.... thank you

Waaah, JOB feelings are hurt because we can't tell which men are predators and which not? Come the fuck on James! It's. Not. About. You.

Terftastic · 19/03/2018 11:50

Rome wasn't built in a day...etc etc.
