@JustineMumsnet

We the undersigned would like to ask you to consider reinstating LangCleg after a temporary suspension, as you have done with others.

Or perhaps, consider reinstating her for a three-month trial period and then reviewing.

We know you will have realised, from the two other LangCleg threads, how much her wisdom and constant voice in support of robust safeguarding is welcomed by so many on this board. It is truly a great loss to us, and to the depth of discussion about such important matters.

We hope Justine that you might do two things:

  • Review what actually happened with LangCleg and decide whether it really was so dire that she deserves permanent expulsion, or whether perhaps there was an element of misunderstanding on your moderators' part (which Michaeel's post indicates may have happened) and, that perhaps she was being held to an inappropriately high standard compared to others
  • Review the process, so that strong voices on here are able to continue to be heard for the benefit of all Mumsnet users

Or perhaps do neither of those things, and just reinstate her because you recognise how important your other Mumsnet users find her.... I guess the equivalent of a Royal Pardon,

Please hear our voice.

And everyone on here, please do sign if you want LangCleg back - just that, a signature with any discussion continuing on the LangCleg 2 thread. A signature to say you want her back and hope that @JustineMumsnet will consider this.

Thank you - both my fellow mums netters and Justine

I’m glad your moderators feel ‘safe’ from the dangerous literal violence of a typing voice

I'm sure you won't be complaining if you're ever subject to abusive behaviour and treated with contempt at work then?

I'm just a lurker - though I've posted twice since Langs ban I'm that angry about it. I loved reading Langs posts. Anyway - signed.

Not signed.

I see no reason not to accept at face value what has been said about the impact of LC's posts on the moderators, and MN as employers have a duty of care to their staff.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 25/01/2020 08:41

Indeed. "Not signed" would be a reasonable response. Multiple posts waffling on about why precisely you don't like Lang is not.

If you have an issue, or wants to start a petition to keep Lang banned, then start your own thread. Don’t hijack this one. This one is a petition on a single issue. It’s not for debate.

nachthexe · 25/01/2020 04:13

But I’m glad your moderators feel ‘safe’ from the dangerous literal violence of a typing voice advocating for safeguarding.

@mabelcloth is that where the ‘sainsbury’s, for example....’ thread titles came from?
Anyhoo, signed.
When Oxford University provides a female history lecturer with two male security guards for every lecture she gives, it becomes obvious that there are very real attempts to quite literally silence GC women.
You are playing into the hands of those that would do us, and more importantly children, harm, mnhq.
Shame on you.
