Is it just me, or have Mermaids been releasing rather a lot of statements recently

It's good that a journalist is looking into this though.

Ooooh looking forward to the Sunday’s!

Who would’ve thought? The British public not being onboard with living in a police state and government sanctioned child abuse? I’d like them also to not be onboard with curtailing women’s rights, but I’ll take two out of three.

“Unilaterally positive” = 4 quotes. I will bet my house that with a well publicised request a journalist could quite easily find at least 4 people who can be quoted as “complete and utter bullshit”. Maybe they have...

That statement is by an organisation who is on the back foot - having had a good dose of sunlight shone on it. People, journalists are asking questions now.

They were never going to get away with their aggressive tactics, on silencing any voices of dissent - and their trying to use publicly funded police forces as their own private security forces....

The coverage and reaction to their latest little fora into silencing voices of disagreement (Caroline Farrow) has not played out well with the press or the public.

For a diversity trainer they could have tried a bit harder to find a good police image surely

That erm, press release, comes across as an organisation that has no idea of how to communicate with the press or the public.

I'm guessing that there will be an article in Sunday's papers.

I know Caroline Farrow has an article coming out tomorrow and this might be an accompanying article to that.

Hope it is Gilligan again.
