She's pulled out of local hustings because it's not safe for her to attend.

But Don't worry.

Keir Starmer will be along to offer his support to Rosie and condemn these attacks on democracy soon...

Well that's something at least. I doubt the leadership will want to draw attention to this because they know the call is coming from inside the house. It's not the right wing who is targeting Rosie.

Show quote history

Do you know who she's referring to and why? I wouldn't necessarily leap to this being about her GC views given how women in politics are generally treated. It sounds more like a stalker tbh.
Poor Rosie.

So we have something from Jess Phillips not exactly full bloodied support for Rosie but at least she acknowledges the issue (sort of)

Absolutely horrendous what Jess Phillips has been subjected to as well.

Does Starmer has any interest in women’s rights? Now’s his chance to step up…

She needs police protection and the Labour Party to grow a backbone and protect her. Rosie is currently the only Labour Party candidate I would consider voting for.

I suppose the response from the LP will confirm how seriously they take VAWG. The fact she wasn't able to contact the leadership and ask for help in the first place speaks volumes.

Will wait for Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner and Wes Streeting to get out there and strongly condemn these threats. It's disgusting and she is 100% right to pull out of public appearances until it is taken seriously.

DrSpartacular · 14/06/2024 18:06

Bloody hell, that's awful.

PronounssheRa · 14/06/2024 18:03

I've checked keir starmers twitter the Labour party's twitter and Angela raynors.

Nothing, yet. But this is violence and threats of violence which is disrupting democracy so I hope to see something soon.....

A note to this.

Sky news reported two days ago that:
Nigel Farage has been offered additional private security by Home Office after milkshake and other objects were thrown at him during campaigning for General Election

How come Rosie Duffield isn't treated equally?
