Challenor on LBC this morning

Much to my horror and surprise I heard the dulcet tones of Aimee Challenor on the Nick Ferrari show this morning. I was half asleep (school hols, forgive me!) and sat bolt upright as AC defended the suspension of the doctor recently.

Ferrari was having none of it and then went on to questin AC about the plethora of male prisoners iding as women and asked AC to comment. AC would not comment because to call these men fakers would put AC in a very awkward position. Also AC did not sound like the brightest bulb in the box - not a shock.

I was amazed that this nappy wearing furry (this is all out in the open MN btw) - roundly discredited and found lacking by the Greens - was commenting on national radio as if they are some sort of intelligent voice in this debate. Why do researchers not do their jobs properly?

Deleting threads like this is shameful. I sincerely hope it doesn’t happen. He’s tweeting it and admitting it himself. Openly. He’s sick and twisted.

It is not normal to fantasise about abusing children. That a partner of a politician who potentially works with or around children shouldn’t be getting away with saying this. The connections with the behaviour of the convicted child abuser father, disturbing. Really disturbing.

Even if this gets deleted, we can keep challenging this in other ways. Looks like Aimee's planning to move to America. Not sure how the authorities over there would react to what they find out because their checks are pretty thorough generally.

I have started a thread...

https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3639203-Nathaniel-Knight-partner-of-Aimee-Challenor-worrying-twitter-admissions?watched=1

I hope I've kept it factual enough that it doesn't get deleted, I'm pretty sure I've not misgendered, and I've added no real personal thought. We'll see I guess.

Excellent job on archiving this thread Zebras. I hope the tweats all stay up too, cos I've no idea how to archive them.

TriptychDebbie · 16/07/2019 02:32

This is him. Apparently he and Aimee are now engaged.

I've archived the first three pages of this thread (earlier - so it won't latest posts on it - but it has the relevant information).

So even if MNHQ feel pressured into deleting this thread, we still have it.

GirlDownUnder · 16/07/2019 02:26

It's gross Triptych and sadly I agree with your prognosis. We'll see I guess.

TriptychDebbie · 16/07/2019 02:06

Several of us have reported him to Twitter and filled out the complaint form but it's highly unlikely anything will be done.

It looks like they're trying to normalise this kind of repulsive behaviour.

ZebrasAreBras · 16/07/2019 02:03

I agree GirlDownUnder - this man's boundaries must be so fucked up if he's breezily admitting all this stuff, and clapping himself on the back for being so open about it.

There is something seriously wrong here.

GirlDownUnder · 16/07/2019 01:42

I agree Always. I fell down a twitter hole ref Lindsay Shepherd getting suspended because JY and came across this hot mess.

It’s awful. And the person linked (Nathaniel Knight, partner of Aimee Challenor) has already admitted to some kind of inappropriate contact with a minor if his following first statement is to be believed;

Nathaniel Knight @kharonalpua 6h
Replying to @

  1. I have given a reply to a self-claimed thirteen-years-old girl on Quora on the topic of Masturbation. I offered the advice that masturbation is natural and should be explored safely as she sees fit. I posted no images or graphic descriptions there

I searched MN and this was the only current thread on this subject.

AlwaysComingHome · 16/07/2019 00:35

I think this latest stuff needs a thread of its own. I’d hate for people to miss it because they think we are still talking about This Morning

stealthsquirrelnutkin · 15/07/2019 23:53

I owe Aimee a big thank you for a tweet that pointed me in the direction of the newly formed Church of Reality.

I was already following @WomansCraft but don't look at twitter every day and missed the thread on 25th June. So it was lovely of Aimless to tweet and bring it to my attention.

My religion is Reality and these are my deeply, sincerely and enduringly held beliefs:

1. There are 2 sexes: female and male
2. Humans cannot change sex"

In order to join my religion, you must:

1. Swear to promote and uphold these tenets
2. Be a human female

I think I may have found a spiritual home at last.

I've just been to twitter.com/RelOfReality and now am waiting patiently for the Church of Reality to welcome me into the fold.

I do not genuinely wish to rape a person of any age.

IT'S NOT NORMAL TO FANTASISE ABOUT ABUSING CHILDREN. YOU ARE A VERY UNWELL PERSON.

I think that bears repetition.

Jeez, what is WRONG with these people??

ByGrabtharsHammarWhatASaving · 15/07/2019 23:27

Jesus fucking Christ, what did I just read?!?!

Who is that guy?
I missed the original post before it was deleted.

Can this nightmare end now please?

Needmoresleep · 15/07/2019 23:27

Aimee's chances of a spousal visa may be lower than she thinks. First I think the fiance needs to earn enough to sponsor her, and second Homeland Security, or whoever it is, are known to check social media etc, and that is assuming either of them are not already on some watch list.

And if US authorities are not sure, the process is achingly slow (or was for a friend who had no obvious reason to be refused and who could afford good lawyers). Aimee's background may not withstand much scrutiny.

Just had a thought...do US authorities read Kiwi Farms?!

chilling19 · 15/07/2019 23:22

Little I just read it as well - horrendous.

littlbrowndog · 15/07/2019 23:17

Omg I just read this on twitter. Ffs

How the heck can this be right. Fantasy of sex with children forced or not

Howslow · 15/07/2019 22:52

....was i supposed to feel better after reading that dude's response? Hmm

ZebrasAreBras · 15/07/2019 22:51

I see that despite the fact that he claims to be "happy to address this openly" - he's taken that You Tube video down.....

LangCleg · 15/07/2019 22:31

It always comes back to safeguarding.

picklemepopcorn · 15/07/2019 22:29

Just because you are prepared to admit to something out loud, doesn't mean that thing is ok! Take some responsibility for goodness' sake.

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 15/07/2019 22:26

This is hideous. The lib dems have to do something, unless they want to cement the fact that they don't care about the sexual exploitation of vulnerable people.

Sportsnight · 15/07/2019 22:23

Wow. That’s some seriously damaged thinking. No one seems to be rushing to his defence either.

Voice0fReason · 15/07/2019 22:12

This kind of fantasy that he has written about and published online normalises the behaviour in his head.
It is not normal, it is not acceptable. It is a step towards real life abuse.
Why would he feel the need to share this stuff with others if not to normalise it?
It's revolting.
