Manchester's latest feminist collective release thier new website with an EXCLUSIVE investigation into the sacking of Labour Woman's officer Morgan Horn.
Trigger warning. Contains reference to Lily Madigan.

My first ever proper article. I hope you like it.

I couldn't make sense of what had happened so thanks op for untangling it for me. It reads very well.

I don't like commenting on Madigan and I've nothing to say about the Labour Party that hasn't already been said so I'll focus on Owen Jones. I don't care if he tweets in a personal capacity, his byline refers to The Guardian and if I were his editor, I'd be farming him out to a local free paper to cover royal wedding street parties until he remembers that basic fact checking is his job.

Where do those k's come from...why are they so close to the L's

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 13/11/2018 22:46

If i were morgan i woukd sue anyone who stood still long enough

Its been a completely unwarranted character assassination

dillydallyXX · 13/11/2018 22:39

The "Not all tweets by me" caveat is hilarious......... and very revealing.

Madigan has repeatedly said that Labour is their substitute family and now Madigan has realised they went too far and is now desperately backpedaling. First, by changing their Twitter address earlier, then by saying they need a break and because they're not in a good place. Now we'll hear "But I never sent it" or "My phone was hacked". It might all be a TERF conspiracy!!

I note Madigan has never ever apologised for anything. When caught, they play the victim and run away.

Maybe Morgan Horn can ask Madigan for a public Twitter apology and repudiation of their baseless accusations. And if not, then they will take legal action. Owen Jones often pulls this trick and - sadly - has had some success.

I note that Lily is no longer the women's officer but rather the womxn's officer.

sorenipples · 13/11/2018 20:35

I'm sure I've seen LM do the "not all tweets by me" thing before.

I presume her brother is getting his alibi sorted... or maybe there was a GC woman within 10 ft of her phone who is guilty by proximity.

Gileswithachainsaw · 13/11/2018 20:34

There's also a sudden appearance of several go fund me pages...

Formutilation transition funds

Hard to be mad at someone who's trying to help vulnerable teens huh....

HerFemaleness · 13/11/2018 20:29

LM's bio now also says 'not all tweets by me'.

Just when you think they could sink no lower, the Madigan has to defy expectations and demonstrate that there are new depths still to plummet to.

The implication is that somebody else wrote these tweets. Well go on Madigan, who was it? Which one of your devotees are you going to throw under the bus for the sake of your political aspirations?

BrickByBrick · 13/11/2018 20:18

It does seem the moment an argument isn't going their way they yell 'transphobia'

ProfessionalBarren · 13/11/2018 20:13

Hmm What a convenient get out clause.

EmpressAdultHumanFemale · 13/11/2018 20:12

Is that because someone's taking control or as a convenient excuse, I wonder?

MaisyPops · 13/11/2018 20:11

LM's bio now also says 'not all tweets by me'.
Confused

EmpressAdultHumanFemale · 13/11/2018 20:07

That's a relief, never met Gill Hart but from everything I've heard I'd expect better of her.

whatsthecomingoverthehill · 13/11/2018 19:58

Ahh sorry smeerf, I thought it was Lewisham Central.

EmpressAdultHumanFemale · 13/11/2018 19:51

Someone on the SYL FB page called transphobia & got their arse handed to them Grin

smeerf · 13/11/2018 19:39

The candidate who won is signed up to terfblocker. And seems to have uncritically retweeted LM's account of what happened

Sorry I wasn't aware Gill Hart (Women's Officer Lewisham Deptford CLP, the post LM was going for) had a Twitter account? I think you might be thinking of the wrong person?

gendercritter · 13/11/2018 19:08

I hate all this 'comrades' shit. Do they have any idea what Russia was like under communism?

They are making utter fools of themselves flinging around these childish accusations. And subletting part of a living room and kicking the poor guy out is awful.

merrymouse · 13/11/2018 18:58

I'm assuming that they are all homeless now that they have told everyone on Facebook that they have been illegally subletting and the house has been trashed?

It's the Judean People's Front and the People's Front of Judea all over again...

Yes except now it seems the People's Front of Judea is run by a stroppy version of teenage Loretta

Im speechless about the whole ‘innocent until proven guilty is only for the law’ tweet. My 5 year old has more self awareness that this

Well done Lippy.
And thanks for the trigger warning! Grin

merrymouse · 13/11/2018 18:23

It’s as though Neil, Vyvyan, Mike and Rik are back and they are all on Facebook.

My favourite bit is sorting it out ‘through the Labour Movement’.

BeyondVicious · 13/11/2018 17:53

Brilliant article DJ!

And now I’m gonna rtft Grin

Thanks for all the comments guys this is really helpful feedback!

It's a mess in the Left right now isn't it? It's like a Monty Python sketch.

If it wasn't for Brexit and a Tory party dismantling the countries infrastructure and erasing women it might be funny.

(To be honest it is still funny)
