OMG The Unbelievable Truth Radio 4!

They'll claim anything but eventually the stuff they're claiming is so outlandish even they start feeling discomfort due to cognitive dissonance. At that point they usually look around to find a woman to be angry at.

I wonder why the "adult human female" definition pisses off the TRAs so much. I mean, don't they in fact claim that trans women are female? (And if they don't, how long until they do?)

FB tweeted that he was going to be on the unbelievable truth, with the link. But he turned off replies so no one could reply to that tweet.

David Mitchell wrote a really interesting piece about the idiocy of present hive mindedness last Sunday. Coincidentally, I'm sure, as he was referring to Miriam Margoyles. He was talking about how astonishing it is, that we hurl abuse at people for speaking the truth. Apposite, so soon after what happened to Rowling.

I've always loved him, ever since reading an interview where he was asked why he didn't have a flat screen telly (this was 10 or so years ago) and he flatly said, "Why would I? This one works." I loved his absolute refusal to be sucked into buying stuff for the sake of it, despite clear professional success. He's a very clever and independently minded man.

Glinner must know a lot of people in the entertainment biz.

And he has expressed his devastation at how few of his peers have been willing to stand with him. I suspect even behind the scenes, people have been too afraid to voice their opinion, lest someone found out.

as a previous poster has said - If DM has any GC leanings, he's kept bloody quiet about it, when we hear plenty of his other opinions.
I think all of the 'comedians' who appear on these shows on a revolving basis are either gutless cowards (if they are GC) or woke.
Though, TBH, I find DM a smug prick and still can't believe how funny he was on Peep Show and how unfunny he is now.

Cross-post CumannNamBan - thank you - Tweet par excellence by Baddiel! ❤️

"I always wonder how much the media people talk on this behind the scenes. I mean, Glinner must know a lot of people in the entertainment biz. Robert Webb does. Gia does. There must be some talking going on."

I wonder how they know who it is safe to talk to about it? I bet there are some right shit-weasels who would squeal to the press if they thought it would dislodge someone higher up the ladder so they could move up a rung.

GC celebs need to get Posie's Covid-masks!

"So Draco was the good guy afterall....."

"I've done the mask so the mask says, doesn't say woman, and it does say "mask" because then you know, if you see one, and people know if they're wearing one, and you clock them, they all know where it's come from and so they'll know where it's come from and you'll know that they know, and it is really, it's it's a nice thing you know. I've had people who can't talk to any of their friends about it and then they wear something and they recognize somebody wearing it as well and people have become friends. People have known that they can talk about it."

Baddiel has already spoken up

I'm sure that that was deliberate. Ha ha, brilliant

It would break my heart if Victoria Coren spouted genderwoo

Mine too. She is way too sensible to agree girl crush

I feel like that too partystress

Victoria Coren has had a snigger at Have I Got News For You identity jokes made by Ian Hislop.

It would break my heart if Victoria Coren spouted genderwoo.

Pretty sure she wrote a subtly GC column once. And her brother, though a knob and a shameful secret crush of mine gets it.

I so much hope Victoria Coren is too intelligent and outspoken to spout unscience? You’re right partystress, that would be too painful.

It would break my heart if Victoria Coren spouted genderwoo.

Who could have imagined the day when stating that women are adult human females would have had us cheering the wireless and trembling for the fate that might befall a decent human being being for daring to voice it?

Upstart Crow with David M and written by Ben Elton can be gently GC.

20m in.

Excellent. Thank for the listen. Funny and I would swear the detail about the fetuses (fetii?) was also quite pointed ... Hadn't heard it before, I'll add that to my list.

I always assumed Frankie Boyle was equal opportunities offensive? Ie, will be unspeakably rude about anyone!

No, there's a special group of males he won't be rude about.

Sara Pascoe thinks that taking the piss out of women who don't want to or can't share toilets with men is edgy.

RoyalCorgi

I’ll double the punt then!

Is 'feedback' on at the moment? Bet there'll be an organised complaint campaign from the TRA

Well if DM wasn't GC i'd be baffled. He's Mr Voice Of Common Sense isn't he? I think that's how he thinks of himself anyway

He’s been very fucking quiet on all this where he’s usually quite forthright.
