He was the support act at a gig my brother went to a year or so ago… apparently everyone used his set for a toilet break and to queue for more beer. Poor old Bill. He’s a toilet break.

Gender ideology is generally the approved thinking for left wingers

True of many people currently active in (originally) leftwing organisations. But gender ideology is about the most anti-socialist, hyper-individualistic, non-leftwing ideology that has ever taken hold on the left in this country.

I suspect most left wingers recognise this, and the cognitive dissonance must make them ill.

But they haven’t got the courage to oppose it. Lucky we’re not relying on them to create a fair society, eh?

I posted in that thread just before it was zapped. Barton was a violent angry player* and doesn’t appear to have changed much with his transition to management. The deleted thread was just another goady attempt at “look at who you’re standing next to” for screenshots.

*i was there for this one, happened right in front of me. Punching an opponent in the balls in front of the ref has to be one of the most face-palm moments in a career full of stupid decisions.

Perhaps he should write a song about it.
"I was a whiner,
I was a knobber,
I bullied women
In most of my tweets....."

So, the misogynistic, violent jailbird and deranged halfwit, Joey Barton, called another football player "an overweight ladyboy" in 2013. I think there are more recent and pressing concerns about the charming Mr. Barton than an 11 year old piece of sledging, said in response to another piece of sledging.

For the record, Barton's a complete bawbag.

It was up very briefly yesterday - posted by a new poster - what a surprise! It was the usual tactic of posting something insane on here for a twitter outrage thread about mumsnetters thinking Barton (or some other misogynist) is great. MNHQ were on it - by the time I'd done an AS on the poster and confirmed they'd no posting history it had gone. But amazingly, incredibly, unbelievably...... Billy had spotted it, saved it and up it pops on his twitter feed 24 hours later. I mean - who'd have thought it.

Hmm. Am I to deduce that you suspect the venerable Mr. Brag of posting it, or else one of his lickspittle toadies of having done so, then alerted him to it?

Quite the Ms. Marple, aren't you!

God, is he still going?

In my mind he's merging with Gary Lineker.

Warriors for truth and social justice.

I don't understand his point to be honest. Mumsnet taking down a thread which presumably said 'this man is good' and receiving responses that say 'No, he isn't...is a sign of what?

This is the latter part of his tweet where he mentions that the thread was deleted and goes on to say 'Does that seem necessary if lots of women were condemning Joey Barton's misogynist comments?'

He makes a huge assumption that the thread was deleted because women were supporting Joey Barton, which is fucking laughable. Bragg has nothing else, so he scrapes the barrel

He's a complete and utter 🔔end. Always policing women on what they should think, feel, talk about.
A washed up has been trying to stay relevant whilst showing his sexist, narcissistic credentials!

@maltravers yes to this you wrote:
“Gender ideology is generally the approved thinking for left wingers and his schtick is tub thumping to get relevance. He won’t change until the Left can no longer shut its eyes and ears to the damage this ideology does to kids and Women”

New depths of patheticness from old fog horn gob.

I suppose he has to try and stay relevant however he can.
