I just read Marion is having to put her home on the market.

I’m fucking incandescent with rage at this bullshit.

How do we help?

As there is discussion on Twitter that this individual, in the name of a company, has chosen to speak and act publicly as if Marion is guilty, my guess is that Joanna Cherry is already fully aware and dealing with this. I remain constantly staggered by the new depths to which some people will stoop, while discussing how they are resisting 'hate'.

I do see hate. I see amazing amounts of it, really quite sickening in its variety. I just don't see it coming from Marion.

Cailleach1 · 14/09/2021 20:46

Yes. Maybe she wants to regroup and find a way so that these dodgy fellows can't keep trying to sabotage women resisting this extreme men's rights agenda.

I wonder if Marion knows how many women around the world support her and can see this witch-hunt for what it is. I can't believe she has to sell her house. All that is needed is a non misogynistic platform and I suspect women will contribute to fund those costs. This is a fight for all women.

OnlyTheLangOfTheTitberg · 14/09/2021 20:41

What about contacting Joanna Cherry? Even if she can’t accept money herself for Marion (I don’t know if she can or not, but there may be some ethical rules preventing it) she may be able to suggest something?

Theeyeballsinthesky · 14/09/2021 20:41

Fucking fucking hell!! Poor Marion - this is insane

FlaviaAlbiaWantsLangClegBack · 14/09/2021 20:39

Could I also have a link please?

MummBraTheEverLeaking · 14/09/2021 20:37

She may just be taking a Twitter break hopefully, this is a heck of a lot to bear.

If you're on here Marion, I just want to say thank you, and you have my support.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 14/09/2021 20:34

"The process is the punishment".

Fucking hell, this is really grim.

Hang in there, Marion, it'll get sorted. We'll sort it with you. We are legion.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 14/09/2021 20:34

If that's the case she has deactivated it. I don't blame her for wanting a break from the online frenzy, and she may have thought/been advised it was wise in terms of the case.

BreadInCaptivity · 14/09/2021 20:29

Marion's Twitter account has gone.

It's saying the account no longer exists.

Cailleach1 · 14/09/2021 20:27

Did Marion get any money? If they are not giving the money to the person it was raised for, is it not fraud for the platform to keep it and use it for their own design? It should be advertised that the donors can reverse it rather than some platform geezers pocketing it.

I wish someone with the know how would set up a platform which would crowdfund for women. Men have organised globally to influence legislation which damages women. Could women set up fundraising platforms to protect our rights and which these sleazy fellows can't sabotage? These cases are so important for us and women going forward.

Artichokeleaves · 14/09/2021 20:25

I won't report that post, I'll just comment that it's probably one of the nastiest I have ever had the misfortune to see on MN.

Celebrating a woman - not yet even having entered a plea, never mind having been tried - who is losing her family home in her attempt to fund her right to fair trial.

It still shocks me sometimes at just how much some men really really REALLY hate women

It's never been brought home to me quite so much as with this issue.

DorotheaDiamond · 14/09/2021 20:19

Also if we do a chargeback will he be able force the costs iout of Marian in anyway?

DialSquare · 14/09/2021 20:19

@DialSquare

Im fuming about this. It's made me more determined to give her more. I bought her some coffees a few weeks ago. I'll have a look to see if we can still get money to her that way.
The page doesn't seem to exist anymore. She's being targeted everywhere. This will end up being an own goal. No one likes bullies.
YesDearNoDear · 14/09/2021 20:17

Donations could be sent directly to her solicitor surely?

For the PP who suggested a PO Box, they're run by Royal Mail - I don't see how they could deny her one.

2Rebecca · 14/09/2021 20:17

That is appalling

thirdfiddle · 14/09/2021 20:16

Wtf is going on. How can it be that someone is accused of a minor criminal offence and having to contemplate selling their family home in order to properly defend themselves? The power that gives to the police is ridiculous. You're punished in draconian fashion even if found innocent.

DorotheaDiamond · 14/09/2021 20:14

So If I donated yesterday on marionmillar.uk will she get the money?

I would appreciate a link to her new crowdfunder too

MummBraTheEverLeaking · 14/09/2021 20:06

Odious, hateful little wankstain scumbag shitweasels Angry

Cutting off support for women with such fucking glee, declaring those women as "hateful" just for not accepting males in every bloody facet of their lives. Then sticking the boot in by giving money themselves to those who may end up campaigning for such a thing off the backs of those women, oh but no one can stop them can they.

It still shocks me sometimes at just how much some men really really REALLY hate women Sad

ChateauMargaux · 14/09/2021 20:06

The platform may well be acting illegally with regard to misappropriation of funds but who is likely to pursue this? The police have shown contempt for women who stand up to their silencing and it appears that women are also blocked from crowdfunding for legal costs when it is to defend the right of women to speak freely.

Fitt · 14/09/2021 20:05

Stripe are in San Francisco!

Fitt · 14/09/2021 20:04

@Tibtom

The site which is taking the fees earned - does that mean money donated to date is going to Marion? Just the fees being redirected? If so would a charge back take back Marion's money too?
Yes, but he's already directed it to her.

It will cause him a nightmare if lots of people do it.

Its a bit of a skimming business, it's not their software, they are just a website middle man who don't handle the cash, stripe do. He just parasites off donations.

Definitely get your bank to reverse it, just to give him grief, he's a parasite, nothing ethical about him.
