@DazzlePaintedBattlePants

She’s writing for the Observer, not the Guardian, but it’s spot on.

A bit off topic but apparently the Guardian believes ‘In a turbulent era, the media must define its values and principles’

I can’t help thinking that if, to make head or tail of journalism on the Guardian website, you have to establish the day of the week it was published and on what continent, the Guardian is falling short.

Fantastic article. Any hope that those labour politicians, with their double standards, are likely to take any of this on board?

that article nails it VERY nicely

why is it OK for women to be worried about male violence sometimes but not others?

oh yeah, when it makes men sad we should just shut up about it, innit?

Very good from Catherine, so important to see Lammy being taken to task in black and white.

Closed for comments though as I can see it? Of course it is.
