I love JHB too.

Her and KJK are the kind of women I admire.

Not fixated on any in group ideology, prepared to be ostracised by anyone who thinks they should conform to group think, and prepared to be disliked and criticised.

They are not part of clubs, won't go along with organisations rules. They just say what they want.

Women like that are villified. Not putting the group first is not tolerated in women.
You have to have ovaries of steel to be a lone voice, disagreeable woman like them.

I love JHB and I don't care who knows it! She gets called a lot of nasty names but it's all misogynist bullshit of the same type that gets thrown at KJK. I'm sick of seeing non-lefty women being monstered.

Me too. It's tiresome and stupid.

I really appreciate JHB taking this on but I do wish she wasn't so long winded when asking questions.

It's was quite upsetting to hear the emotion in KJK's voice when she talked about the TRA's attack on her. I hope she's had lots of hugs at home.

Really! I haven’t seen her before. Thanks for the info. I read her name, but it didn’t mean anything. So just needed some background. It’s so refreshing t see someone understand and really appreciate the stupidity of this nonsense. We do need people to stand up. I wish I could do more.

Who is the woman interviewing KJK. She’s fab.

Glad to hear someone say that on here! Normally we get told off for mentioning her!

Julia Hartley Brewer was excellent interviewing a Labour politican recently who referred to a double rapist as 'she'.

I don't share many viewpoints with her, but on this issue she is bang on the money and not afraid to speak up.

Her name is in the thread title.

She's a right of centre broadcaster and frankly I don't agree with a number of her views, but kudos to her on this topic she's been rock solid for years.

She did an interview with Brendan O'Neill a while ago where she said she decided this was a hill she was prepared to stake her career on and fair play, she takes no prisoners on this issue.

She's conducted some quite memorable interviews where she is absolutely fervent in refusing the prefix "cis" and isn't afraid of asking questions that expose gender/queer ideology for what it is.

Despite our political differences I've got a lot of respect for her and her tenacity on this issue.

The interview she did with Lily Madigan (years ago on radio) was particularly refreshing cringeworthy for LM at the time and I recall another with a male "ally" when the cis word was used where she basically said get the hell out of my studio, I'm not going to let you spout that crap.
