@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

It ain't happening, get over it. End of.

ScrimshawTheSecond · 20/02/2020 11:53

Nothing to see here, eh? Move along and stop talking about safeguarding. It suits some people very well, I suppose.

aWeaponCalledtheWord · 20/02/2020 11:26

as it’s outlined here, LangCleg was ‘a’ safeguarding expert, not MN’s appointed safeguarding lead. so it’s all a bit of a red herring suggesting MN have made a grave error.

and for those continuing to ‘sign’, save your pixels. it ain’t happening.

Given the sort of codswallop being spouted by Labour MPs at the moment we desperately need Lang back

I'd add that most visitors here come for high quality 'content ' and informed discussion . Which is why posters like Lang are so valuable an asset to mumsnet.

Agreed.

HQ, it would be great if you could take another look at this. Measured, reasonable poster & clearly still missed.

Without content creators you don’t have content, and no one wants to go to a website with no content.

Lordfrontpaw · 20/02/2020 08:26

Has someone kidnapped the office dog or something?

ScrimshawTheSecond · 20/02/2020 08:26

Me too.

GinUnicorn · 20/02/2020 08:24

Still missed. I’ve just recently discovered feminist boards and in past topics she seems measured and articulate. I wish MN would reconsider.

tooyoungat40 · 20/02/2020 08:19

Sorely missed.

HoofWankingSpangleCunt · 10/02/2020 10:33

Just ducking in to sign.

Signed.

2BthatUnnoticed · 10/02/2020 05:00

(heath I know your suggestion was well meant, but based on past experience, it may not be well received - and it’s not worth you getting a warning (or worse) for, at this stage)

TheBewildernessisWeetabix · 07/02/2020 22:04

heathspeedwell
We have suggested FP training for the admin team many times. It usually comes up when there is a major misunderstanding or security breach.

Justine and Michael made it quite clear that our repeated suggestion that the admin team could benefit from additional training was viewed as criticism of the admin team and therefor a banning offense. That is the basis upon which they say they banned Lang.

Mum4MrA · 07/02/2020 21:55

I'll remember this next time snow's pals
Who the heck are "snow's pals"? That daft insinuation thing again if you don't always agree blindly with everything. Hmm

BlackForestCake · 07/02/2020 21:43

I have plenty of compassion for the mods, who are entitled to come to work without being abused or treated with contempt.

I'll remember this next time snow's pals are trying to get someone disciplined or sacked for their opinions.

NotBadConsidering · 07/02/2020 21:06

I'm sure it was meant in a helpful way as well, I was just saying how it'd be likely to be received

Worth thinking about this for your own posts Willis Wink
