Is anyone else going to the event on Wednesday?

They obviously want to cause trouble of some kind. They don't seem very well connected though. I raised more than that sponsored walking round the playground when I was 5.

It's not a problem if Eddie attends apart from high media attention

And yes, he is totally abusing his position.

Natasha is Trans and has contacted Eddie Izzard and asked him to attend.

Wow!

I've mentioned before that I think Natasha Scott is abusing her position and needs to be reported

Regarding your screenshot.

Why would Ms Scott need to know the venue a month before the meeting? Nobody local needs to know more than, say, a day before, at most.

What is more, she has stated that she has no intention of attending.

Why, then, is she hell-bent on finding out the venue?

Ms Scott is LGBT rep on the local police committee. I think they should be shown these screen shots.

The second one is from an interview with a Hastings newspaper, about WPUK going to Hastings.

I am tempted to go just to meet someone who calls herself Clitterati!

So they found the guy who made the threat AND they found the explosive equipment?

We don't know and we probably won't. A threat was made on Twitter by someone whose bio says they live elsewhere but who claimed to work at the venue (I highly doubt it!) and bomb making equipment was found at a house in Hastings. We don't know whose house or whether it was connected to this threat.

I would come like a shot if it were at all practical, but it's not. The fact that activists are trying to stop women talking about our rights makes me more determined, not less.

IAMcorbyndallas · 18/06/2018 06:58

Going.

The bomb equipment was at a local house.

There was no bomb equipment found at the venue! The venue is secret and hasn't been released yet.
The organisers will have support from the police to keep people safe. Please don't be put off.

I've been keeping an eye on a couple of the main instigators to see what's happening. I'm still going despite being really nervous.

I realise that there might be people protesting there that I know, but I won't let them bully me out of attending.

It would be lovely to see a few MNers there, but I understand why some people might be reluctant to attend. Especially locals as it's a small town.

They're actively seeking out the venue.

A woman I know who lives in Brighton is attending.

Picassospaintbrush · 17/06/2018 23:55

I have a ticket for the Equality launch in the House of Commons or I would go.

TheClitterati · 17/06/2018 23:53

i am going!
I've ducked out of a lot of online discussion etc recently (it all got a bit much) but I am going to the meeting on Wednesday

Southfields · 17/06/2018 23:49

I already started a thread asking this question, after the bomb threat and the bomb making equipment found there on Friday.

Hardly anybody said they were going, which is a great shame.

Maybe a few more replied since I last looked.
