This is terrifying.

ToeToToe · 07/10/2018 22:03

This is really chilling. Police forces are showing us that we can't expect police protection if we are women holding certain political or philosophical beliefs.

ohello · 07/10/2018 22:01

Actually, this is good I think? It proves they don't respect women. So it makes it easier to sue them when women report crime and the police do nothing.

I think there needs to be a crowdfunding war chest just for Manchester, so the lawyers are already to go the next time they have grounds to sue.

KatVonGulag JFC how are these people getting away with this? I don't do twitter and am glad of it after seeing that. I feel physically sick. Why are we such a threat to men?

So women with concerns around the gender act are ordered to stay away from Manchester. And the police back this?

This is a warning shot for Filia - the Women's Conference scheduled for 20-21 Oct. in Manchester.

Calling all feminist campaigners, activists, artists, academics and revolutionaries. Calling all women!

So true. I’ve never heard a gender critical women threaten a transgender person.

Andy Burnham of Hillsborough fame is responsible for this people.

"No women who say things I don't like on our turf"

Butterymuffin · 07/10/2018 21:45

Nice to know the GMP have decided they don't have to serve and protect certain members of the population. I'm pretty sure that's not how the police service is supposed to work.

KatVonGulag · 07/10/2018 21:39

I don't think I've ever seen a gender critical person threaten violence towards a trans person. I want them to have safety too, just not at the expense of women and girls safeguarding.

Yet I see constant threats towards t*rfs. Horrible vile stuff.

The police ought to know better than this.

'No terfs on our turf.'

'In no way are we inciting violence against anyone.'

So how exactly do they suggest removing gender critical women from their 'turf'?

SirVixofVixHall · 07/10/2018 21:33

War on women.
Agree totalitarianism. Essentially it read as “ women who say we things we don’t like are not allowed in this part of town” .
I am finding this escalation genuinely frightening.

Labradoodliedoodoo · 07/10/2018 21:31

Do the police realise that turf is a slur. A derogatory term used for women who are concerned for women’s rights.

Labradoodliedoodoo · 07/10/2018 21:28

What an offensive tweet. So women with concerns around the gender act are ordered to stay away from Manchester. And the police back this?

SPOFS · 07/10/2018 21:28

Who can we complain to about this?

Lawlsie1976 · 07/10/2018 21:27

If only the police turned up as quickly if you report a real crime. Maybe they quite like policing hate crime as it's an easy collar for them and they're all on targets now aren't they?

There are going to be few jobs, they want women out of the workforce.

Needmoresleep · 07/10/2018 21:02

Silly buggers. Don’t they realise that our society depends on public respect for the police.

FermatsTheorem · 07/10/2018 21:02

Reminder of the excellent concept of the "TERF translator". Every time you see "TERF", mentally substitute "woman/women who say something I don't like" and see how the resulting tweet/poster/slogan reads aloud.

So: "Punch a woman who says things I don't like", "stab a woman who says things I don't like", "women who say things I don't like should die in a fire..."

I find it a very revealing exercise. Very, very revealing indeed.

Charliethefeminist · 07/10/2018 21:00

Makes you realise how quickly, if self ID comes in, women who demur will be hunted down and punished. They are ready, waiting and enthusiastic.

ChrysanthemumsAreMums · 07/10/2018 20:53

This is really really shocking. Depressing as hell
