Kirstie Allsopp 🤦🏻‍♀️

I don't really understand why she’s getting so much attention and why Emma Nicholson wants to invite her to talk. Isn’t she just a rich presenter of light entertainment home makeover type programmes? Not saying there’s anything light entertainment programmes but why are people pretending the presenters have anything interesting or profound to say?

More TERFery. She’s already being accused of “repeating anti-trans propaganda”

I think that wasn't Kirsty's words but she was retweeting somebody and saying how rude it was actually.

I saw EN retweet KA using the word that rhymes with Granny.

Yes this has been depressing to watch, but tbf never really had her down as any kind of feminist or deep thinker so hardly surprising.

We should acknowledge the hate speech that has been directed towards those who describe themselves as TERFS. My take is that two wrongs will never make a right. I used to tell the kids “I don’t care who started it, sort it out” obviously this is different, but the point stands

She has tweeted this. Her poor kids. Really, this just let's the aggressor get away with it. Kids who bully other children have parents like this, and they know that their parents will never get involved.

Does she think the justice system should take the same approach?

What an idiot. I could say worse. TV certainly puts the spotlight on something horrible people.

"She is now playing with fire, by trying to police their tone. She doesn't realise that she's caught a dragon by the tail"

Or a penis 🤣

'Mr Magoo meets Olive Oyl'.

Brilliant.

Of course they will - it's amazing they haven't already, as they usually lack the insight and tactical awareness to hold back.

She is now playing with fire, by trying to police their tone. She doesn't realise that she's caught a dragon by the tail.

I remember when Labour were proposing a wealth tax on property over £3million (at the same time as the Tories introduced the bedroom tax) and she was all 'But what about the poor millionaires?' She never going to be reliant on the NHS or whatever home care assistant the state decides to send her. She's never going to need a homeless shelter or domestic violence refuge. Her children are never going to be stuck with the local school or the cheapest shared uni accommodation they can afford. She's wonderfully 'I'm alright, Jack!' and 'Do it to Julia!'

The hilarious thing about this debacle is Kirstie keeps unawarely saying things which are extremely TERFY, but because she’s sticking it to the TERFS the trans rights side are gritting their teeth and letting her get away with saying stuff which JKR has been cancelled for. A trans rights activist will say stuff like “thank you for being a trans ally kirstie” and she straight up responds with “I’m not an ally , I think it’s terrible that children under 18 are being sterilised and put on hormone blockers”. I wonder if they’ll eventually get fed up and cast her on the TERF pile anyway?

Some of the stuff she’s come out with are rebuttals straight from the TRA playbook. It’s too similar to be coincidence. That combined with her lack of compassion for Women far less fortunate than herself has made her look ignorant and hateful.
He words to Emma Nicolson were appalling, it’s obviously a game for her.

Yes I also think this. Family member has started to identify as opposite sex, possibly a child and so shes knee-jerking int#o the old and largely discredited 'just be kind!', TWAW! petulance that got human society into this mess in the first place. Lacks the critical evaluation facilities to do otherwise.

I was wondering if a young person close and dear to her has suddenly come out as trans?

More than likely.

At one time, some TRAs were quite open about how they were recruiting children to the cause, because (to quote one of them) "they demystify it and take the sex right out of the trans experience.”

The aim seems to have been to hobble politicians as well as ordinary people, who would look like they were attacking their own children, or other young people close to them, if they spoke out about gender ideology. They seem to have succeeded with a lot of them.

Gotta say I loathe being on the same side as Spiked, who take the opportunity to spuriously slag off Carol Vorderman in the article.

Spiked is on the case.

I was wondering if a young person close and dear to her has suddenly come out as trans? It might account for her confusion and lack of information coupled with an emotional pull to the Be Kind side, which are at odds with her instinctive agreement with many GC positions on sport, refuges, prisons, etc.

I genuinely think that people in that position are in difficulties and I can see how it has affected Labour's ability to formulate a coherent approach.

I will say it again coupled that break boundaries like marriage and have affairs are wired up differently, they already are a Queer theory type.

I hope she tries out a terf block list made by a TRA and finds all her actual mates magically vanish.

I wonder what the people she engages with in real life are saying to her? I’d be surprised if she doesn’t get people backing away from her after the twitter stuff.
I don’t really know any women who believe TWAW now, everyone has come out of hiding. I hear conversations about it regularly now. Even my dd and her friends don’t believe it. And they were full on “be kind” at uni.
I know one person who does believe it, and they are married to a prominent TW, who transitioned in middle age after having children. They chose to stay married. So they have to go along with it.
