I posted a link to this even some time ago and there have been various comments and more recently one for an organiser of the event which has been really interesting.

Then just now mumsnet have deleted it saying it is because it has a go fund me link in it.

Well I posted that some time ago and nobody said anything. And as I have also posted that on a number of other threads I apologise if they get deleted.

What is the problem.

We are trying to support Lesbians and some red tape that users aren't aware of do this hatchet job.

Why didn't you just deleted the post with the go fund me link.

If I believed in conspiracy theories I would say mumsnet has been nobbled by the lesbian erasure strand of transactivism.

Heavy handed and unecessary.

I can't be there but solidarity to everyone.

Have a great day - hope the sun shines on you all - will toast you with Gin later on

Well, my train carriage to Leeds appears to be about 90% lesbians and everybody seems to be know someone in every other group!

2BthatUnnoticed · 07/09/2019 13:09

Enjoy the day everyone 💚💜

Saw this today, assuming it’s accurate then 71% of lesbians reject TW who id as lesbian - I’m sure most totally support trans rights as in protection from abuse, violence and unfair treatment in housing and employment etc. but obviously not the full TWAW that is being claimed. Good luck today on the march!

Hope the sun shines upon you.

Having checked the weather forecast, this is far from guaranteed.

Bezalelle · 07/09/2019 11:39

Solidarity! Wish I could be there.

Go safe everyone.
I hope there are enough smelling salts provided on the route for those who find the idea of lesbians organising without men to be so abhorrent.

I'm quite excited to read any updates. I wonder how much attention the mainstream media will pay to this.

Well - I hadn't seen any poster, so glad I happened to see this other post.

I thought the main link was the eventbrite page and not many women are actually on twitter.

Will send the Feminist Archive North link to others.

Thanks

Rally is in Millenium Square, which has been on the posters/ on twitter but I'm sorry if it wasn't clear

Just finished sorting last minute stuff out, I hope everyone is excited!

@PegasusRex

Help! Can you clarify? Have just seen on Feminist Archive North a notice for the March tomorrow saying the rally is in Millennium Square which hasn't been said anywhere else.

So for late arrivers (which my well be me) or women allies wont know this because as far as I know all other publicity has implied march starts and ends in City Square.

If it is ending Millennium Square is there any way of getting this updated on eventbrite, facebook or where ever.

Would be really sad if a group of women is left standing in City Square for a rally happening else where. Sad

Or if Feminist Archive North are wrong then they should be asked to change their notice.

Yes I hope it all goes well for you all tomorrow, and without incident. Will follow online.
