I’ve checked as much as I can and apparently Jameela Jamil and Josie Long (I’m not sure who she is but lots of followers) have deleted their tweets supporting Mermaids. Jameela also seems to have removed her unpleasant tweet(s) to JK Roeling (I don’t think I’ve missed them on the searches) An interesting development.

Dunno - my eyesight isn’t quite good enough to confirm...

May be a lady spider.

SerenityNowwwww · 10/08/2020 23:23

Feminist my arse. The spider living behind my loo is more of a feminist that this one.

moptophairshop · 10/08/2020 23:22

Jameela's Twitter account - what a mindless pile of arse! Yes she's deleted some like telling JKR 'mouth shut, purse open' etc... She does however seem to enjoy retweeting some of LOJ's choice tweets (eg Rosie Duffield attack with misleading statistics). That man really hates women, so what does that say about a woman who amplifies his misogyny?? Definitely not, as she labels herself, a 'feminist in progress'.

SerenityNowwwww · 10/08/2020 23:20

What about the Derry (haha - autocorrect keeps saying dreary) girls one? Very much trying to prove her loyalty to the cause in the past.

Oh, if only there was some way to capture these foul tweets? So that we could all remember the betrayals? Won’t someone invent some sort of copying facility...

@KingFredsTache

Funnily enough I was looking for Jameela's 'I take them all' tweets about Karen White and Co a couple of weeks ago, and noticed she had deleted them....

Wrong side of history eh Jameela? Grin

I’m both pleased and not particularly surprised to hear that both have done some cowardly quiet deletions.

Jameela is grim. It feels as if she is still one of the mean girls at her very posh London private school (Queens college).

@Needmoresleep going by your use of “still”, are you saying Jameela was a mean girl at school? It sounds like you’re judging her equally by her “posh” schooling as her views.

Someone already archived them. Wrong side of history indeed. Grin

And I just realised I could do this! Here are all the Tweets by Josie Long that people have archived.
<a class="break-all" href="http://archive.is/twitter.com/JosieLong/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">archive.is/twitter.com/JosieLong/ sadly it does not include her Mermaids endorsement.

@QuimReaper

Has Jameela deleted the tweet above, or just Mermaids related ones?
I’ve just searched for it and it looks to be deleted. There are a few similar rhymes in reply that remain but the original seems to be gone.

TitianaTitsling · 10/08/2020 22:43

Emma Watson for me is the most annoying of the pathetic handmaidens. Using her UN role to drive the bus over females while degenerating the woman who gave her the access to fame, and being so simpering, just so, so disappointing.

MrsJamin · 10/08/2020 22:40

Of famous supporters that need to back away that is.

MrsJamin · 10/08/2020 22:39

Add jade thirlwall (little mix singer) and Michelle visage to the list.

OhHolyJesus · 10/08/2020 22:37

That's a shame Kings, someone will have them though. Was that the one about the toilets?

I quite like this, given the back tracking.

Interesting. Potential inkling that she knows fine well she's talking bollocks?

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 10/08/2020 22:20

if Jamil does a reverse ferret I am REALLY going to struggle.

Holding different opinions, believing something and then changing your mind is human and totally fine.

But that doesn't extend to making rapey comments, deliberately attacking women and smearing dv survivors. There are lines and limits, and Jamil's behaviour has gone well over it, in my view.

It's a bit like the difference between Baroness Winterson voting against same-sex marriage - a belief that I disagree with, but she's entitled to hold - and Damian Barr making his disgustingly callous comments about a trans person's suicide attempt.

Because for all the 'be kind' shit, there are so many people who have been apparently using 'gender issues as a way of heaping horrible, horrible abuse on women.

@Kantastic

Jameela has also deleted her Tweets where she said that "Danielle Muscato" is her friend.

Maybe related, maybe because Danielle was involved in a bit of Twitter controversy and has been dogpiled by thousands of people and called a Karen for bullying a retail worker today.

I'm just going to save Jameela's endorsement of Danielle here.

And here's a handy list of celebrities who've endorsed Mermaids, including Jameela. I hope at some point they will have to answer for it.

Maybe we need to start letting people know they'll eventually be held to account for endorsing Stonewall and Mermaids.

Great work there, Kantastic

I won't forget those who sold out women and children for clout, and it's good to have the evidence.

Jameela and Josie have both been absolutely hideous: gleefully calling orher women terfs and bigots. Not sure if I can forgive them or others like them, but we'll see.

rogdmum · 10/08/2020 22:16

Kantasic Glinner’s comment below her tweet! Grin Grin Grin

PearPickingPorky · 10/08/2020 22:13

This is very interesting indeed.

Would vacuous celebs like Jamil get some sort of prior warning about Mermaids' impending doom? How does this sort of thing happen?

CourtneyLurve · 10/08/2020 22:10

@Kantastic That endorsement is like something Titana Mcgrath would post. I can't believe anyone would read it and agree.

teawamutu · 10/08/2020 22:05

I know it's important to always give people a way back etc etc etc.

But by God if Jamil does a reverse ferret I am REALLY going to struggle.

She's managed to combine vapidity with viciousness as few others have.

She's a bully who will side with whichever group she thinks will earn her the most
