Julie Bindel v Billy Bragg

Billy Bragg has tweeted.

Julie Bindel takes to right wing GBNews to smear the trans community with the same trope that was used against gay men in the 1980s - that they are all paedophiles. Has she forgotten that made gays a target for physical violence? Does she care if trans people are now targeted too.

Julie has given him 24 hours to appologise or she will take legal action.

This is the interview

Ahh the second exchange is much better:

Julie (linking her substack piece:
Billy Bragg is a massive misogynist, by @bindelj

Then:

Julie:
I am giving you one opportunity only, and 24 hours notice, to publicly retract this statement and apologise to me. If you choose not to go this route then I will consider taking legal action against you:

Billy:
And I am giving you one opportunity only, and 24 hours notice, Julie Bindel to publicly retract this statement and apologise to me. If you choose not to go down this route then I will consider taking legal action against you:

Julie:
I do, however, apologise for referring to you as 'massive'

@PriOn1

I do not lie.

It is a quote from BB. Not me or my opinion. Literally a quote.

Yes I probably should have put it in quotes or italics, but it was early and I had not had coffee.

I think you need to re-read this.

The OP is not lying, Billy Bragg did tweet that and Julie Bindle did threaten legal action.

Personally I hope she goes through with it, it will give a lot more publicity to what is actually happening.
