Posie has announced 19 June - Bristol

That's great. Remember the Jam Jar? She's always been fearless.

I've got the YouTube link for that too.

I wish I could have been there. I'm not really on Twitter, is there any other way to find out when something like this is going off?

Also, who is Charles Veitch and why are they all saying he is a paedophile?

He's a moderately famous YouTuber and amateur documentary maker. No idea where the accusations come from.

I didn't know the rally was happening, only aware because of this MN post. Very brave of those to attend 👏 Thank you.

Received The Mill (mcr online newspaper)'s latest newsletter, and they're going to do a feature on this issue soon. If anyone was interested in contacting them, I've screenshot the details:

Looking like terrorists in a city which has suffered so much from actual terrorism in. In particularly poor taste IMO.

"for you."

A shame the sound isn't better in that clip. There is, I think, the polis asking 'are you a feminist?'

True. I just like how dismissive the young black man is to the ninja. He's like, "Maybe ninja-ing isn't for you."

#blackpampers is trending on Twitter right now 😄

flygirl1983 · 16/05/2022 17:20

I do especially like that the young man who pulled the ninja off patted them on the back to say, "It's ok. You did your best."

Male or female?

I think the ninja that assaulted the woman was either female or the weakest male there.

Some more footage:

I love the first woman, “some men, not all men, but some men are dirty bastards” , just made me laugh as she says it in such a normal, every day tone, like discussing the weather

Baroness Nicholson has said she is writing to the police. As a Mancunian I am not surprised by Pat Carney's remarks

Tiphaine · 16/05/2022 16:33

NotTerf it said this earlier though, before they remembered they were supposed to be on the side of the MRAs Smile

The way Twitter is reporting this is infuriating. Focusing on the event organisers for their 'attacks on transgender activists '.

This tweet from 'Safe Lives' dedicated to ending domestic abuse.

"Anyone can be a victim of domestic abuse. The ‘I Am …’ exhibition is about survivors sharing their voices and the exhibition should not have been misappropriated by anyone trying to make a political point.
It does a huge disservice to all those pictured and their own personal stories, and is unacceptable. Domestic abuse and those who have survive it are no one's symbolism."

A domestic abuse organisation criticising women for standing in front of the exhibit. They're in front of the exhibit because they were harassed, abused and in one case manhandled .. the police moved them there.
Talk about not fit for purpose.

According to the women, this couple were following them. And they didn't scream at them and they weren't asked to leave. Also why wouldn't you point your camera at the action?

The Leader of Manchester City Council has tweeted to say how sorry he is that a TRA in a Stonewall t-shirt was 'harassed' but has said nothing at all it seems about black clad thugs pushing a woman about, despite there actually being evidence.

If it is the woman who is one half of the married couple, their story keeps changing and doesn't seem very credible anyway.
