Yes but Mumsnet is mostly women, so it needs to be hit harder.

BlooperReel · 10/01/2019 14:22

Wow kiwi farms is savage, Mumsnet gets labelled a hotbed of transphobia for refusing to accept the TW are W trope, whilst KF is throwing our every insult in the book towards TW.

TufVoyaging · 10/01/2019 14:17

Was Mrs Challenor not registered as a Reverend on something. Facebook or LinkedIn, that sort of thing.

Popchyk · 10/01/2019 14:13

Kiwi Farms is very informative in this area.

thatwouldbeanecumenicalmatter · 10/01/2019 13:45

They're well known over sharers. I'd give you examples but there was a mysterious white wash of a lot of online content that had both AC and DC mentioned together after DC was convicted.

Popchyk · 10/01/2019 13:44

Anyone wanna bet that AC will do the spoiler thing of issuing their response before the official version is actually released?

Melroses · 10/01/2019 13:42

Why are they posting that level Of detail on social media

Hmmm.... They also know what is in it.

SlightAggrandising · 10/01/2019 13:22

Why are they posting that level
Of detail on social media? Seems odd.

iMum · 10/01/2019 13:21

I'm blocked too-super weird as i don't even use my Twitter!

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 10/01/2019 13:16

I'm blocked by Aimee.

Weird. We've never interacted.

Will look forward to the findings.

I was looking at KW threads and came across this interview by Simon Gilbert of the BBC, talking to Aimee Challenor about the Green Party and "transphobia".
I really fear for the UK if this is allowed to spread, and other characters such as Challenor and Madigan are allowed to enter politics.

I'm hopeful that Shahrar Ali will have useful commentary particularly after his recent victimisation as the subject of a smear campaign.

QuietContraryMary · 10/01/2019 12:19

according to AC's Twitter,

"Nick Martin now tells me that those named in report get it around 1pm, before publication not before 4pm. I understand this delay will be frustrating to some, but it is welcomed by those of us named as it allows us time to prepare a response."

Terfing · 10/01/2019 12:07

So, where can we find it?

Popchyk · 10/01/2019 09:42

Just as an aside, I find it interesting that so many of these TRAs are constantly referred to as younger than they actually are. You see it a lot on social media. AC and LM are often still referred to as "teenagers".

AC is 21.
LM is 21 next week.

Jess Bradley is 30.

LangCleg · 10/01/2019 09:12

Let's have some sympathy and try to remember who the real culprits are here.

NO. Our first priority should be to prevent harm to women, vulnerable adults and children.

Any trauma of Aimee's needs addressing by a professional and not us and is not mitigation for any harm Aimee does.

Just the @ please as this triggers an email notification.

To bold name use name without the spaces.

feministfairy · 10/01/2019 09:09

Yes Needmoresleep
Many schools are 'Stonenwall' champions. If a school decided to appoint anyone to a position where they could influence policy - be it staff, governor, consultant - and who was being investigated for such serious allegations, the school would be subject to serious challenge.
Why are Children in Need, Oxfam and other charities in such trouble? Because they ignored the need for safeguarding and ignored the risk that some of their staff posed to vulnerable service users. Safeguarding is about anticipating risk and on occasions that means that some people despite their vulnerability) are not able to be appointed while there are relevant safeguarding issues to be resolved. It's difficult but the needs of children and service users should always come first. Safeguarding always has priority - always!

hackmum · 10/01/2019 08:59

Absolutely horrified by that FOI request.

andyoldlabour · 10/01/2019 08:46

R

Does that mean I leave out your whole screen name or just the @?

I wondered why I kept getting loads of emails just lately.

R0wantrees · 10/01/2019 08:45

This would have been just after his children (including ‘Aimee’) were taken into care.

Some parents will go to considerable lengths to try to locate their children when they have been taken into care if this or other knowledge about them has not been shared.

I don't know anything about the Challenors cases.

R0wantrees · 10/01/2019 08:42

Beatrix Campbell definitely worth following andy

WPUK speeches:

(as an aside, could you not @ me on current threads please as it means I'm getting uneccessary emails.)

Melroses · 10/01/2019 08:36

The same Stonewall that advises schools, government, charities and major firms on LGBT and diversity/equality issues, despite radically changing its lobbying focus and approach in 2015

I hear they have also been writing Police policies for them.

I totally agree Terfing. DC is the bad guy. GP was desperately incompetent and needs to learn from its mistakes unlikely to happen IMO

andyoldlabour · 10/01/2019 08:32

@R0wantrees

Beatrix Campbell, what an incredibly brave and intelligent person for speaking out like this.
